The Secret to Success<\/b><\/p>\n

Ned\u2019s success lies in his juxtaposition\u2014the innocent face of an 8-year-old delivering sharp, well-timed insults. He even joked about his own age, mentioning a joke book for kids he was supposedly given by the producers, only to dismiss the jokes in it as “lame”<\/p>\n
