There are long running Japanese tv shows that do nothing but wordplay. Because of kanji confusions and so many homophones these shows will run forever.
Yes. Watch some movies on nicovideo and leave the comments on. Take a shot every time you see a wordplay and see how long it takes for you to die of alcohol poisoning.
Not much. In J communication is generally painfully formulaic and predictable (depending on your age / gender you are expected to use on repeat set phrases, like “ee”, “sokka”, “sugoi”, “yabai”, “kawaii”, “uso”, “maji”, “taihen” etc etc).

I find puns are generally frowned on. They are only seen as dad joke material オヤジギャグ
