Another creation on the US abc channel.
Up for grabs is $250k USD for the winner, but all they have to do is survive being contestants on a Japanese gameshow. Ten people start off, and from the looks of things, they will lose one person each week until the final however many they will have in the final.
What gets me about this show is how 'redneck' the people they have as contestants really are. The type that has never left home states, or the USA. The type who have no idea about Japanese culture and don't realise that the gameshow hosts are paying them out in Japanese to the Japanese audience.....
It is quite funny to watch these Americans on the show (it's called Majide, which kind of translates to "are you serious?!") getting stuck into the wacky Japanese games.... but, it doesn't really give a great impression to audiences about what real US people are like since this is just a very poor sample of the population LOL.
