He was "the straight man" by that show's standards, but he still got into his own share of hijinks.

This one is a bad example of a bad character tho

Always the worst in the show.

The "no fun allowed/straight man in a comedy show" archetype is great if properly handled, especially if they slowly become "fun allowed" as the series progresses. Hayama from Kodocha is an excellent example of this.
