Say hello to Andy and Knuckles, the stars of "The Andy & Knuckles Show," a situational comedy sponsored by Georgia-Pacific Professional and appearing on www.enmotion10.com. Andy and Knuckles are two long-time friends who share their own comedic take on life as hands. They are part of the 10th anniversary celebration of enMotion® touchless dispensers.
As a pair of talking hands, Andy and Knuckles appreciate how enMotion dispensers have helped make touchless dispensing easy-to-use, efficient and effective for hands like them. In a series of webisodes hosted on www.enmotion10.com, Andy and Knuckles joke about their lives as hands and many of the situations they have encountered.

These two charming, relatable characters bring to light the daily situations our hands experience in fun and humorous ways, says Alex Volpe, vice president and general manager of the towel category for Georgia-Pacific Professional.
