I don't think the duo ever really got enough credit for the sophistication of their humor.

Granted, their material wasn't exactly Moliere, but I do think that they weren't the one trick pony that the media loved to portray.

Their skits riffing off of the Nixon tapes-after they had been declassified and entered into the National Archives-was much funnier than anything Mark Russell has ever done during the course of his brutally long career.

That's just my opinion, disagree if you like.

I am a big Reagan fan, but even I laughed at the prank call to the Reagan Library where Anthony impersonated a disoriented Reagan. The woman who answered the phone was just so gullible!

That's right! I had forgotten about their Nixon bits. That had to be among their best.
