Why is Japanese (reality tv?) way better than America's

The Japanese are a lot more creative and daring it seems.

I love MXC and I hear they are bringing over Human Tetris.

America's reality TV lost its way....I remember when reality TV was hidden camera shows and funniest home videos. Now it's all this dating crap and stupid game shows. The Japanese know what's entertaining; exploiting situations and recording it on camera, and making people suffer.

My favorite show is Downtown no Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahende!! with one of my favorite skits being the no laughing games. The cast has to survive 24 hours in a certain local trying not to laugh or they receive some sort of painful punishment to their buttocks.

Here's part of the High School one in English class:

As a sidenote, I HATE reality TV as a whole.

Only show I think I enjoyed and this was because it made no bones about being a fake reality show was the Joe Schomo show on Spike. In which only one person was an actual contestant and everyone else was an actor.

MXC is crap compared to the actual show, Takeshi's Castle.

The fake commentary in MXC is funny, but it's so old now that it's been re-done 18 times before.

How could I forget him. He was how I even came across Gaki no Tsukai.
