The Japanese game show mentioned above is on Youtube. Just search for "Japanese game shows". After viewing some of them, I now believe that Japan has beaten everyone when it comes to really bad TV. There's one where the contestants are given cards. All the cards match except one. The contestant with the odd card has to perform some kind of disgusting act while the others laugh hysterically at him. AND THERE'S NO PRIZE. You humiliate yourself on national TV for absolutely no reason at all.
