Brock Baxter

He's certainly treading those waters.

Brock Obama seems to have ascended to a position of stardom on good looks and a rich speaking voice.  He's freaking Ted Baxter! “ While his massive ego consistently fueled his dreams of grandeur, his actual performance was the reverse. A running joke of the show was Ted Baxter's incompetence, evidenced by a steady stream of mispronunciations, malapropisms, and mercurial displays of temper.Baxter was usually represented as a complete idiot who would mispronounce even the simplest words on the air. Knight became concerned at how the character was being portrayed and at one point considered leaving the show. To give Knight's character a more "well rounded" existence, the show paired him with Georgette, played by Georgia Engel, who brought out some of the more vulnerable aspects of Ted Baxter. - Wikipedia ”
