Japanese Game Shows

Posted by Stuart at 02:47 PM on July 26, 2003

One of my favorite things about living in San Francisco was eating at a particular noodle shop in Japan Town. It was only two blocks from our apartment, and so Kenley and I would go there quite often for cheap and tasty ramen soup and Kirin beer.

Whenever we would go, we would hope that the TV would be showing Japanese game shows. We never understood what was actaully happening on the show (since we don't speak Japanese) but it didn't matter. They were still hilariously funny at times.

This memory recall is courtesy of a Nippon TV website that I found today. Click on the "movie" links to watch some amazingly creative skits, especially the first three. For some reason, the 7th one with the three small girls made me laugh until I cried.
