It's nice to see the US get a crazy, laugh out loud Japanese game show. Good thing I didn't miss it becuase I thought I did XD. I'm so watching this.

I'm so psyched for this show!!! M friends and I have recently become obsessed with watching funny videos of Japanese Game Shows on youtube, so this show is probably the most coincidentally awesome thing to happen!!

I grew up watching Japanese game shows XD

Now it's hit the U.S.! I'd certainly watch it... if I lived in America Neutral

Crazy! I could honestly care less because the American people are going to force ABC to have it on at a ridiculous time since no one's going to watch it. WAHH!

It'd be better if it didn't have that reality show twist to it and was just... a Japanese gameshow. lol!

I'd probably watch it still if it was aired here but they used to air actual Japanese gameshows here too, I miss those.

kayoko, what'd you expect? The commercial showed the contestants going to Japan. If it were really a "genuine" Japanese show, there would be different contestants every time.

I think it's good. It's a twist of an American reality show with a Japanese game show. However, I don't like the elimination parts; it's too depressing. However, I find the rewards for winning and losing pretty good.

Spoiler:

Overall, it's good for an American show. If only America would just put マジで (Majide) as a normal game show...
