That one was hilarious! 😂
I personally enjoyed the pendulum bisection the most.
Dont think theres loads of edgar allan poe heads in China
Poe was also hugely influential in France and Japan. The French especially admired him as a poet, and the first big Japanese detective writer named himself after Poe - Edogawa Rampo.
In the Spanish speaking world too - Julio Cortázar's translations are very highly regarded
Baudelaire, Lu Xun, Cortázar - what an incredible roster of translators.
France I'm actually a bit surprised by since culturally they tend to be a bit insular, but China and Japan make sense to me. They both kind of strike me as very literary cultures, even of works from outside their respective regions.
That “imagine the perfect dick or pussy in front of your face” monologue will haunt me forever.
Some of the monologues in that show were pure art. The Lemon Monologue was brilliant, but Dupin's ending "I don't give a fuck why you did it" was my favorite.
