You're right on the experimenting part, but I think you're missing the fact that Python's sketches, while off the wall and experimental, were at least superficially "normal" enough to entertain people less willing to dig deeply into the comedy.
Tim and Eric put up this incredibly large wall of obfuscation between the viewer and the comedy. If you can see through it, you find it hilarious, but it's not nearly as easily digested as Python is. Full disclosure: I do find Tim and Eric's first season funny, but their second season saw them get WAY too self aware of their own success and they started veering into Tom Goes to the Mayor levels of "so bad it's too bad to be so bad it's funny" bullshit. Jam it back in, in the dark.  |

Tim and Eric has all the cultural impact of 2 girls 1 cup. Sure it's funny, and people's reactions to it are funnier, but everyone forgot about it a couple months after it came out.
How ya doing, buddy? |
