Hugh Laurie's pretty good in House. And Stephen Fry is excellent hosting QI. If they'd stayed together, they risked becoming what French and Saunders have become, bloated echoes of their former selves.

The 'dead weight' I meant was referring to Peter Cook and Dudley Moore.

A duo I have memory of from when I was a child is Hope & Keen.

Ahem!
This is the point that the funny one would say something good (if I was in a double act).
This thread has left out the greatest comedy double act ever.
