Fair point, was curious if there was a reason beyond what I suspected. I love his comedy, but my opinion of course. Totally okay for you to have your own preference and recognise you don’t find that style funny at all.

I have to agree, his delivery really doesn’t work for me. It feels like he’s elbowing me in the ribs with every gag.

That said, it’s not enough to spoil Airplane for me. Airplane is a masterpiece.
