They also feature many stand-up segments and sketches such as the 5 rangers (which can be found on Youtube). The more famous ones that I can name are Silent Library and the Batsu Games (which were popularised worldwide by Youtube), however they have many more major segments such as the kiki series, absolutely tasty series and Shichic henge. The amount of segments they have is also a product of this, many of which have been taken by many other countries and aired. Not one episode I have seen has been unfunny or been like the episode before, that's over 1000 shows. Gaki No Tsukai has been running since 1989 every single week (as far as I know). Nowadays our televisions are filled with fake reality shows and clichéd TV shows and when a good show comes out it usually gets cancelled or runs out of steam and starts getting bad. What makes this show any different then say a UK or a USA TV show? Well first of all the amount of creativity involved in the show. From the bizarre yet incredible mind that is Hitoshi Matsumoto and his schoolfriend Masatoshi Hamada (Collectively known as Downtown) and later joined by Tanaka, Endo and Yamasaki comes a show full of games, sketches, challenges and all sort of wacky segments.

Such a bold statement, but for me I haven't seen many shows that come close regarding the amount of creativity, originality and the constant quality of the shows, that Gaki no Tsukai has.
