TV in Japan

This was a nice week. On TV. In Japan.

Enjoy some of the cathode fruits of my digital labor.

Japanese Girls Practice Caligraphy. On Each Other.
Pythagoras Switch is Seasame Street on Physics Crack. The greatest kids show ever.
Two heads play catch.
Awesomely Terrible Kill Bill Parody.
The Chimpan News Channel - News For Animals, By Animals. Pure Monkey Awesomeness.
From the Guys Who Did the "No Laugh or You Get Beat" Show Comes More Funny Punishment.
24 Hours In One Place With Nowhere To Run From Demons = Hilarity.
Cream Pie Torture. For a long, long time.

Hope you can spend some quality time checking these out. Seriously. This is your holiday weekend.

Oh, and make sure you come to the new TV in Japan!

Yes, these are just links.

But follow those links to the new world of TV in Japan.

Where clips run free like wine. Come be a wino.

Come see these dazzling gems!

Remember those don't get beat videos? Well, here's a lot more. And they're awesome.
The Star Wars Version is here.
Oh, and these guys get beat for anything. And they can never leave the gymnasium. For 24 hours.

Can you really afford not to go check it out? I mean, seriously.

You've got the Chimpan Channel, Japan's newest way to get news for animals, by animals.
Plus, some real life Gachapin amazingness.
And, a really crazy Batman parody from the late 80s.

It's all good. Now, in light blue!

At least I think it's light blue. I'm colorblind.

Come to the new world. Come to the new TV in Japan.

Come for the Cocorico Kill Bill Parody.
Come for the Real Life Cops Getting Scared.

Come for nachos. Virtual nachos.

Go to the original post now live at tvinjapan.com!

Or enjoy this slightly less exciting copy of that post.

This is how you exercise. When you've got no body. On TV. In Japan.

This is a double post. The original is here. Go meet the new TV in Japan.

This is why you must learn to control your emotions. Yet again. Lest you get beat for laughing. On TV. In Japan.

Okay everyone, I'm officially declaring tvinjapan.com open for business.

I'm going to keep double posting here for a while just to make sure that everyone knows what's happening (and I'm not convinced that the Yahoo servers are doing exactly what I need).

Why am I moving you might ask? And what am I (that's you) going to get out of the deal?

Well, mostly I'm moving because I was sick of not having any sort of category system for people to dip into my archives. After all, I've posted over 350 different videos on this site and most of them get buried real deep real fast just because I like to post so much.

Blogger's been great (especially for a noob like me) but new digs are needed.

Many of you may never have seen some of my best stuff so I hope you can dip deeper into the amazing amount of Japanese TV now available at your fingertips.

Check out the categories (down below, on the right sidebar) on the new site and you'll be able to see all of the posts nicely sorted. Once in a certain category, click on the post to take you to the video.

As of right now, I can't figure out how to have the categories open up to just have the embedded videos. Hopefully some WP genius out there can help me with that.

As far as design goes, I've used the 3k2 template with some help from the Swachuk theme. Oh and big props again to Luis Hurtado for the logo. Cafe Press store (and shirts) to come if you're interested.

Oh, one small, kinda crappy thing. Actually two crappy things.

1. I imported most of the blogger posts/comments about three weeks ago. And since then I've been double posting here. Unfortunately, that means there's no comments on the new site for the past three weeks. Kinda crappy.

2. See how there's 170 Uncategorized posts on the site? That's because I've only been able to go back about 200 posts so far to add categories and the YouTube/Google Video code which mysteriously doesn't come over with the import tool. I'll be updating these over the next month or so and should at some point have an entire library of these clips.

Well, that's about it. Hope you enjoy the new site and that you keep reading/watching TV in Japan.

This is an educated monkey. Who, given a human tool, suddenly shows how much education he still needs to get up to speed. On TV. In Japan.

This is amazing.

This is for any person who ever fooled around with stop motion as a youngster. Your memories of pushing stop and start on that stupid, giagantic VHS camcorder will come flooding back to you.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, then go look at the boob dudes.

WARNING: Extreme amateur video here. Also, only partly on TV in Japan. Half in some dudes bedroom.

These are the lyrics to a Sean Paul song. That somehow translates to shoot me in the eye with shampoo. On TV. In Japan.

This is how you do a weathercast. Where the weather isn't really all that important. It's more about fabric. When it gets rained on. On TV. In Japan.

WARNING: This video contains a wet t-shirt.

These are five men. Dressed in boob suits. That is, suits which give them boobs. One of which gives the wearer six. On TV. In Japan.

This is a Japanese internet nerd. That is not that different from an American nerd. Who lives with his parents. And on the internet. And may, under certain circumstances, deserve to be punched. On TV. In Japan.

This is how you wear unitards. And carry giant magnets. And rock. On TV. In Japan.



Thanks Josh!

This is how you sell Pretz. With extreme repetition. And sumos. On TV. In Japan.

Hey new visitors to TV in Japan!

Did you know there's a new address/home for TV in Japan?

Seriously, we've now got our own space. It's awesome!

You should go directly to this post there if you want.

Or keep reading the following. But there, we have categories. Good categories.

This is how you push the envelope. With ink, brushes and bikinis. On TV. In Japan.
