I just wanted to point out that nearly every name in that show is a copout

Dutch cops out a lot on adapting punny names. Part of it is that the puns don't work, but part of it is that the Dutch are very literal with naming things.

The Count on Sesame Street? Graaf Tel. Count (title) Count (action).

lucg@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 131d

Wow. It apparently took me 32 years to notice The Count has more than one meaning o.o Thanks for making that point clear to a fellow Dutch speaker xD
