Downtown Gaki No Tsukai!: Let's all deep-fry flowers

[Hayashida]

So I mentioned this show on the previous forums, but no one seemed to really take much interest in it. I dunno if that's because you guys just didn't watch the videos or something, but this show is the most entertaining thing in the world. Some background info:
The show is made up of five guys. First there's the downtown comedy duo, Matsumoto and Hamada. There's another guy called Yamasaki and a second duo called Cocorico, made up of Endou and Tanaka. Don't ask me about their first names, because I don't know them.
There's a bunch of sections to the show, such as batsu (punishment) games, cooking segments, sketches, etc. Basically it's a panel show.
The most popular segment would be the batsu games, in which the loser(s) have to take place after losing a bet or contest. The winner(s) devise some cruel game for them to play. Past games have included "No Laughing Batsu Games" where the losers have to live in a certain place for around 24 hours without laughing or they're punished. Anyways, I'm getting tired of typing, so I'm going to leave you with a clip of the show. I will post clips that I find around.



*Note: There's a subbed Batsu game uploaded by the same user who uploaded ^ that video.

John who is this heipo guy they got to eat the bee larva.

[Hayashida]

I think he was/is one of the producers. He is hilarious because he is scared of absolutely everything.

I don't know how many of you have seen this already, since it's pretty popular on the interweb, but here's a great section of Gaki No Tsukai called Silent Library. For those of you who haven't seen it, it's a segment were the cast members and usually one other guest, usually Heipo, sit in a library and play a russian roulette style card game where the loser who draws the skull card has to endure a punishment, all the while having to keep silent.
Here's the first segment of the video:

Yeah they have a version of that in america that is really terrible.

[Hayashida]

Man why to television companies have to do that. They did the same thing with that whipeout show which was just a rip of Takeshi's Castle.

[jubeh]

Takeshi's castle was brought over here as MXC and it was dubbed intentionally wrong. It was actually pretty funny though.

[Hayashida]

Yeah, MXC was awesome. Though, once it started getting into the fourth season, it started to get kind of bad, what with all the product placement.
