      ... by order of "The Management".

       

      Overall, I liked them - but I wish they'd been more selective with what went into their TV shows.

       

      I found their "Billy and Johnny" routine unwatchably coarse.

       

      Meanwhile, "The Management" / "The Two Rons" struck me as pure genius.

      Long denim coat and hair down to shoulders - with that look I'd be more worried by Mr Sparks dug than Mr Spark.
