His humour was, at the time, both unexpected and fresh. It included a lot of nonsense, and stories making fun of daily life.
He often played an ingenuous poor man, whose life was neither good or bad. He portrayed characters with conviction and humor. His best material included pieces written by him, such as "Ida ao médico", and others based on Spanish comedian Miguel Gila’s material.
