Favorite Japanese Variety show

Post by auroragb » Jul 10th, '06, 19:27

that doesn't feature Oricon charts (as in NO music station, pop jam, etc) and not a quiz show?

These are the ones I've seen on torrent, but if any you like is not on the list

London Hearts.

Nothing has been funnier than Aoki's picture book or Bubble Aota's recording of the single so far in the last 2 years. Pure gold.

Yah, I missed Lincoln, probably I immediately associate it with Hey!x3 even tho it's a different show and not music related, sorry.

I don't think I ever heard of Gaki no Tsuka. Probably because I've not seen it as a torrent :lol

Gakkou e ikou, SxS, and Doumoto Kyoudai is my favorite shows, they are almost always funny and hilarious. How I love Kinki, V6, and SMAP members being silly lol.

The London Hearts ranking battles are just so much fun! But the various pranks are great too, but I always have to wait for the subs because the Japanese there is just too fast and advanced

basically Taiwan broadcasts London Hearts about 3 months behind Japan subtitled in Chinese. Then it gets uploaded on icefish as a torrent

If you're interested in subbing it, you may want to start a thread in the fansubbing, maybe others can help, the stickies there also has a subbing guide

Wow... this is an old thread... but definitely a good one for revival.

As for me, HaneTobi is definately my favorite variety show. Too bad Gottsu isn't around anymore.

After Haneru no Tobira, Lincoln would be my favorite... You can't beat their Sekai Urururin segments... Plus they're adding a new "Dondake~!" corner.

one of my friends loves "cocorico miracle type". kudos to massaru for uploading it for us.

btw, i heard of a show that has a bunch of lawyers on it. they give you a situation (by video), then the lawyers discuss the situation.

for example: man walks into a store, buys a banana, eats it, throws the peel on the ground while walking out of the store. someone slips on it. can the store be sued? can the person sue the banana eater? etc.

anyone knows the name of this show? anyone knows which tracker may host this torrent?

I like smapxsmap, it's cool the see famous people get invited there. The skits are pretty funny too. (from what I understand)

That sounds like a segment they do on "Waratte Iitomo" from time to time. Usually around the 12:40 timeframe.

I'm not a huge fan of foreign dramas (the more expensive Hollywood shows own my soul.. heh) but variety shows caught my attention. I can't really think of any equivalent they do over here. I love the dokkiri segments :) Anyway I try to catch Gaki no Tsukai and Lincoln whenever I can. I saw some London Hearts which is pretty good too.

I agree! Sometimes I want to go out and find recipes to cook some of the dishes... (even though they are probably quite exceptional). :P

I LOVE SmapxSmap!! I never miss a show but I was watching the Nodame SP promotion show (Hanerunotobira)? and I was wondering if that was the variety shows' name. I watched a clip on youtube and it was HILARIOUS!!
