Fox in Japan


Yesterday evening i was switching channels and what a surprise when i discovered that i actually have the Fox channel in my apartment. The same tv shows as in the us were broadcasted, something we don't even have in France. In France it is impossible to watch tv shows in the same time as in the us. You have first to buy the rights to broadcast it in french on your channel. We cannot even access the streaming video which a reserved for american audience only. So what a surprised when i could watch the new episode of Prison Break!

But what's funny about it is watching a very trash reality show subtitle in japanese. Indeed I watched Tempatation Island where girls have to seduce boys in order to make them cheat on their wife while the wife are watching the adventure by video and vice versa. The show seems soooo far away from the japanese culture and seing wet naked bodies dancing together and dumb people explaining the "dilemas they faces in the experience" was very paradoxal with the moral ideals the japanese seem to have.

The shows I yet watched were more like food contest or funny talk shows or kawai manga; I haven't see (yet) any sexy more occidental realty trash, but my job here is not done yet...
