Road Rules / Real World type show set in Japan? DO WANT!!!
The season premiere of the summer replacement reality/game show "I Survived a Japanese Game Show" was Tuesday night at 9 and boy was I surprised at what it turned out to be. Unlike MXC (which is basically Takishi's Castle remixed, and what is basically remodeled Wipeout airing on ABC as well) this is so much better. Labels: Japan, television
Standard rules apply of course. Cast of characters, some annoying, some rude, some old, some young, some sexy, whatever are all put in a home and they compete in games in order to win prizes or not be eliminated.
The twist of it all happening in some kind of meta Japanese game show is just crazy and so very welcome.
I'll miss that Kid Nation isn't back for a second season over on CBS, but this is absolutely must watch for any Japanophile.
