Comedian Asim Chaudhry Talks ‘The Honeymoon,’ ‘Sandman’ and David Hasselhoff

We made the mockumentary look so realistic that a lot of people thought it was real. They would get angry at us: "Oh you f***ing bums, get a job!" That was the greatest compliment.

You worked with David Hasselhoff on the TV series Hoff the Record .

The Hoff is amazing. We did two seasons, and I'm really proud of that show. One thing I’d say about the Hoff, and I say this with all due respect, is he's not the greatest actor, he's not the greatest singer, he's not the greatest anything really. But my God, that man has charisma. When he walks into a room, it's the Hoff. I would say he's arguably one of the most famous men to have ever lived. Even kids know David Hasselhoff. My mum knows who he is. My grandmother is an old Pakistani woman, she doesn't know anyone. But she knows who David Hasselhoff is. It goes to show you that confidence and charisma can take you a long way.

He doesn't seem to take himself very seriously.

To be very honest, a lot of the time he doesn't know quite what's going on.

Finally, congratulations on Season Two of Sandman . Will Cain and Abel be back?

It was an absolute honor and privilege to be involved with such a legendary saga. We just had so much fun doing it. We tried to keep it as real and as true to the comics as we could. Let's hope for some more Cain and Abel, but you never know because there are so many stories yet to be told. I’m just happy to be part of it.
