But see i never knew why Fred called Lamont becuse he didn't come off as a dummy to me. Maybe a little boring but not a dummy. But in Cal's case, you could see he was fat and that's what made the dat jokes funny.

In my opinion Lamont added allot to the show (early seasons (with afro). It wasn't until the later seasons where he got boring. The ones where every time someone comes into the house the audience claps. I didn't care for the Lamont character then only because he really didn't do anything.
