Japanese Comedian Sekai no Nabeatsu

Oh please no; she is just as if not more dreadful.

You have no idea what you’re talking about. Watch Gyagu Manga Biyori. Watch Golden Egg. Stop talking about the glories of the western world and get your head out of your arse, neo-colonialist.

Ucchan-Nanchan is the best! XD (just my personal opinion, as Im a big fan of them).
This is just a rumor but the reason that you guys don’t see them on TV that often anymore (they used to have a lot of their shows, like until several years ago) is that a cult organization (SGI) is kinda pushing them out of TV industry, although they still manage to have their own show, like Iromonea, but a lot fewer.
You see, Japanese TV industry is full of lies and wrongdoings.. if you google you’ll find a lot. I heard many of Geinojins are members of SGI because if you become one, you get to be on TV more, and then they get brainwashed. And the industry is dominated by those Productions that are huge in power.
So that’s why my poor UN are kinda pushed out because their Production is small, and just because they’re so nice that they don’t even talk behind ppl’s backs. (SGI members try to recruit new members so often that they just nicely asked them not to at their own show, and then their shows were ended, followed by new shows with SGI members.)
Anyway, it was kinda off-topic.. but yeah, there’s a freedom of speech but religion and work should be separated…

I don’t think this outlook would hold up very well if we were to compare Japanese prime-time comedy to U.S. prime-time comedy.

I will note that Japanese comedy/variety shows on the whole seem to stagnate quickly (as they eventually mimic each other) and are always looking for ANYTHING to reinvigorate the show. Usually it’s crap like this guy, but on rare occasions you’ll get something that helps the shows evolve – then it’s copied and copied until it becomes the new cliche. Same thing goes with just about any other industry whether it be movies, music, fashion, etc.

I’d like to second Downtown’s old shows, too. Gaki no Tsukai definitely has had its moments in the past, but they became less frequent as the show progressed, sadly. The last New Year’s special was pretty awful as it’s now devolved into celebrity cameos, old acts, and sheer repetition.
