But why should he even mention them to the completely different looking and unrelated strangers named Sam and Max?

So they aren't supposed to look very similar and even talk with the same voice after all?

Why should he relate Sam with Sameth and Max with Maximus????

They're entirely different persons, I only noticed they were from the same family when Sam mentioned it

Just played thru 203 again.

Jurgen says something about winner of some poetry award 270 years running. Of course, maybe he's just telling porkies

Don't forget we talk about comic characters here

For me it works just like Bugs Bunnys disguises:

For us, the people who watch it, it is OH SO CLEAR that this is Bugs. However, for the characters in the show it is not.
For me this applies to Sameth and Maximus as well.

I can agree with you. But now I imagined sam&max in a dress thank you for conjuring up this image in my suro.

I think a major reason Jurgen doesn't care is because, he never actually saw Sameth&Maximus again.

Another reason, is because now Jurgen thinks he's too damn cool, and too much of an emo to care about it.

I mean he is cool. But he has that arrogance, where he thinks he's to damn cool for anything, he cares way to much about what other people think of him.

Hassat Hunter · 05/27/2010, 06:20 pm

I think what they are trying to say is... he's a damn German!

barchetta · 05/29/2010, 01:30 pm

It would've been so much more fun if Sam's grandfather would've been called Maximus and Max' grandpa Sameth

Flyingman356 · 05/29/2010, 02:51 pm

It's because he's from Stuttgart.

Lena_P · 05/29/2010, 04:19 pm

Jurgen is not cool, he's the world's biggest dork, which is why he's hilarious! "Oooooooh, my live iz zo hahd! I'm immohtal and 'afe a cool castle wis a disco and secret lab and undead ahmy! Vhine, vhine, vhine, vhine!"

Also, why would Jurgen mention Sameth an Maximus to Sam and Max? "Hello complete strangers who 'afe come to deveat me! I knew your gross papas! Vell, time to become zombies!"

bobtheskutter · 05/30/2010, 01:16 pm

Hee hee.

When I first saw human Jurgan, I was simply delighted. So happy to play a part in him becoming the eurotrash vampire from season 2. Vampire origin stories are fantastic.

onionmaster · 05/31/2010, 09:16 am

I think it's highly likely that Jurgen has had the castle for a long time, given the fact that one of the puzzles in 203 centres around the fact that one of the inscriptions is eroded, but he is photographed with it in the past. For it to erode it would take environmental damage over a period of...say 80 years. It couldn't be much before that because colour photography was not in widespread use until the First World War and after. Given that the story takes place in 1901 this leaves Jurgen 20-30 years to have acquired his mansion and had the photo taken. And how did he acquire the mansion? The plot thickens...

AND WHO TOOK PHOTO?

Actually, I think that was a painting, not a photograph, so it could be even longer than that.

It begs the question, who made a painting of JURGEN?

Knoxer · 05/31/2010, 11:53 pm

I'm the only one that noticed the explanation of his fancy with men? Thanks to the Hex it explains Jurgens nature.

Giant Tope · 06/01/2010, 12:11 am

Wait what?

Shwoo · 06/01/2010, 01:04 am

I don't think Jurgen ever indicated that he liked men, and the hex wore off.

I'm pretty sure that Jurgen's only fancy is himself.
