Hans A. also explained that the dynamic between the two fish in Two in a Bowl is inspired by the classic comedic pairing of opposites, much like the legendary duos of Laurel and Hardy or Abbott and Costello. In these types of relationships, one character often plays the fool whose actions whether intentional or not tend to affect the more grounded partner. The contrast between the two fish’s personalities creates a natural tension, fueling the humor in their interactions as the more naïve fish’s antics sometimes cause chaos for the other.
