After plowing through edamame, someone started talking about this crazy Fear- Factor-oid game show they'd just watched in Japan, wherein women wear po rk chop hats. They pop up their meat-adorned heads through holes in a pl atform like so many "whack-a-moles," and this big goddamned hungry tooth y lizard crawls around seeking lunch in an agitated, confrontational man ner. "I don't know what's worse," said my sushi-eating friend, "being stuck th ere with a pork chop attached to your head -- or NOT having a pork chop on your head. Would the lizard try to eat your head if your hat had no p ork chop?" But lo and behold, on the same day, a Boing Boing reader points us to a Google Video clip of this very game show. Or are the lizard gods talking to us through the internet?
they're the same girls from the clip of the group of girls getting scared and crying when a girl jumps out from under the tv when they're watching 'the ring'. if you think japanese tv is insane, you should watch some of their mus ic videos. morning musume is a group of girls with an ever changing cas t run by a single producer, named tsunku, who used to be in a ginormous boy band himself. you can watch their tv shows, shop at their stores, go see the touring childs subgr oup (mini moni), watch them in gazillions of commercials (they have an especially catchy pocky jingle), and even play their ps2 and gba video games.
