TV in Japan
We screenshotdon't speak the language, so naturally these clips culled from Japanese television appear even stranger than they would if we actually understood what was going on. Or maybe not. Check out this guy showcasing his special talent for making train sounds and see what you think. Or tune in to this comic skit satirizing the different types of people who do karaoke. There's always a fake —or maybe even a real — police squad convincing a noodle shop patron to put his dinner up his nose. And the English-language heavy-metal opening of an otherwise dialogue-free show about a bad-ass robot panda is fabulous. Our favorite, though, has to be this view of Japanese celebrities who must refrain from laughing at a girl vamping to a medley of Madonna tunes. If they slip up and chuckle, masked men leap into the shot and spank them with sticks. We have to go to Japan. (in Television)
