OK so we found out that Larry was played by actor Adam Sandler...does anyone know who played Phyllis? This duo lasted for a very short time in the early days but I recall their skits had to do with "Cooperation" which the 2 of them would always stutter trying to say the word. One skit involved Larry having his hand being "crushed by a 10 pound sack of potatoes". That was the only line I remember. I was hoping someone would be able to fill in the rest or perhaps someone will post a skit or 2 of this rare duo on You Tube. Has anyone come across any?

Are you sure it wasn't Allen Arkin who played Larry? Unless that's another IMDB goof up.

Adam Sandler would only have been four years old, LOL.

It's too bad no one else seems to remember the skits that these 2 short lived characters did together. I know there weren't very many.
