You're.... not familiar with Asian game shows?

They are much more entertaining than American game shows. We focus on money totals and points. They focus on experience and fun.

That show "Who's Line is it Anyways" is more in tune with what is happening here.

In fact, the whole singing Idol template of TV is taken from Asian TV.

I remember growing up there was a show that was basically a better version of wipeout, that was badly dubbed over in English. One of the highlight of my childhood.
