    I think I agree with your overall point, but not quite your reason for it. I don’t think German humour is more pun/word play heavy than other comedy elsewhere. It’s just that the German language is one of the more complicated ones and allowes for very complex puns, that are often impossible to translate while also trying to preserve the comedic delivery.
