For fans of insanely dubbed Japanese gameshows...
mXc (AKA Most Extreme Elimination Challenge) is being run as a marathon on Spike TV.

Funny, funny, show.

8. I love MXC!
They just showed the episode of some guy doing Sinkers and Floaters; he tried to do a backflip and landed on his head instead of his feet, I never laughed so hard in my life...

11. If you think the Japanese game shows are odd
You should have seen some of the Korean ones I saw when I was living there in '97. Really freaky.

One was like a cross between Fear Factor and The Apprentice and it was brutal! They ended up making the contestants work in a fish processing facility, just for kicks. I've still never seen anything like it on American tv.

12. What about that Spring of Trivia
Always thought that was good. I think the dub is fairly accurate.
