I'm not surprised he did so well for a couple reasons. a) He's absolutely amazing on Curb. He "gets" the show and really fits in well. and b) he was an early writing partner with Steve Martin on the Smothers Brothers show, and in his book Martin gives Super Dave a TON of props, saying that the two of them had very similar tastes and senses of humor and they would crack each other up all day. So dude has chops it would appear.
