Jason "Jay" Derris and Robert "Silent Bob" Blutarsky are fictional characters portrayed by Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith, respectively, in Kevin Smith's View Askewniverse. They have appeared in all of Smith's films with the exception of Jersey Girl. The duo are marijuana dealers (and in Clerks they sell other drugs as well) who spend most of their time standing outside storefronts selling their product. The duo express great interest in John Hughes' films, especially Sixteen Candles, the movie Purple Rain, heavy metal musician King Diamond and the funk and dance-pop ensemble Morris Day and the Time.
On January 18, 2008, Internet Movie Database users voted them the greatest comedy team to appear in multiple movies together [1].
