Yes, it a Mech Ike Special. They trick a bunch of celebrities into taking a junior high school level test (covering all subjects), and see who is the stupidest celeb.
Whenever I see Japanese people fail I cant help but shout
"I HAVE BROUGHT SHAME ON MY FAMILY!" in a shit accent.
Has anyone posted Takashis' Castle yet on POE?
The Fat Dude is the director (now general producer). He's there because he blew the chance to snag a top-tier singer for the quiz (Akiko Wada). He let slip why they actually wanted her there, so of course she refused.
As punishment, they made him take her place.
I should also mention that I watch this show every week.
