Yeah actually, I expect you're right. Again! emoticon

I'd much rather the original format though. Celebrities 'helping' people hide is all a bit rubbish.
It's interesting that they have a subbed version. Wonder if they just did the one episode to send out to companies to watch, or if they've done lots to sell as a series?

Still like to know how it's "A format that's a global sensation". Unless there ARE versions being made in other countries? Hmmmm...?

Re: Million Family


I wouldn't call it a global sensation either. Especially because I think that not many people from western countries know that show. Hole in the Wall was a kind of global sensation because everyone watched it on YouTube, which isn't the case for Million Family.

I wonder which channels will buy the rights. The American remake could be something for abc, especially after Wipeout and I survived a Japanese gameshow. The Japanese version with subtitles could be broadcasted by G4.

I think we're probably the only site that even talks about it! The only non-Japanese one anyway. I've never found another anyway. No videos are ever uploaded (unless they had Hello! Project members in). So yeah, I can't see how it's a gobal sensation emoticon

It SHOULD be, but it's not!

I'd love for it to be on Challenge. I think it'd fit perfectly on there, with their usual Takeshi/Ninja/Banzuke style voice-over. It'd be brilliant.

They are selling them as full shows (including all the other sections, like the Mouse Game emoticon):

Wonder why they've changed the name? "Million Family" is a lot better than "National Family Challenge", which is just boring.

To be honest, I'm not sure if it would work as a daily show. Takeshi's Castle, Ninja Warrior and Unbeatable Banzuke do, but Million Family doesn't. Once a week (or once a month if it a 2 hour version) would be good.

And I agree with you: Million Family is the better name. But if there is a local version produced for America, you can't name it Million Family.. because you can't win 1 million Dollar. emoticon

Re: Million Family


Maybe not if it was just Hide and Seek every day on its own, but if they included all the other games too, I think it'd work (Mouse game, Monkey IQ game, Power Ranger Dad game, etc).
But yeah, if not then Hide and Seek once a week would be great!

Lol! Ep was great, the fact that it's going to US is greater.

Well, I dunno if it is definitely going to America. That might just be the pitch to American companies.

I WILL try and record that subbed ep. Hopefully tomorrow (I know I said that last week!).

Re: Million Family


Why do the Japanese have a habit of replaying stuff that's over 50 decibels at different angles?

It's kinda bugging me at the mo. emoticon

In case you missed it the first time? And the second? And the third? And the fourth?

emoticon I dunno. They just like reaction shots.
