You mean the male version of Florence. And yes, I do agree with that. And he's also the African-American version of Niles from the Nanny. LOL!

Yeah, i think so too, but i thought Geroffy was way funnier than Florence.

What made Geoffrey funny was his wisecracks and insults would come out of nowhere and not being obvious that he was going there. Florence was obvious that she was ready to go there. The early years of her and George was priceless. I would be screaming the way she dogged George. The classic line in the episode, Uncle Tom, was, "I was cooking for a chiawawa." when George spoke about her cooking was tasting like dog food. Florence's real moment when her and Louise got into over that plague in the episode, Florence vs. Louise. Louise came out on her and she did as well. Geoffrey did not have any altercations with anyone in the house just he was a smart aleck butler.

He has directed several episodes of the now cancelled 'All of Us' on the CW. He also did a HiJinks episode for Nick at Nite back in 2005. There were rumors on tv.com that he tried to pitch the idea of a revival series for "In the House" focusing on life of Max and Mercedes.

And he kept the same straight face and voice while doing it, making it natural.

Yeah, yeah, G's personality is more like Niles from The Nanny. LOL! They're both from England, both butlers, both sarcastic, witty, and clever, too! LOL!
