Yeah - the first took me a while, but I finally figured it out.And they did the "Owah" joke on "Mork & Mindy", too, but it was "Owa Tajer Kiam".

Second one first, first one heh funny.
The "owah" joke reminds me of the "sofa king" joke.

First time I saw the "Owa" gag was in a Three Stooges short, so I would guess it dates back to vaudeville and/or burlesque.In a similar vein, comedian Jackie Vernon started out using the stage name Nosmo King. Also, I was much amused in bygone days by the fake address East Erbun, NY.
