When Tamori gave the eulogy at that guy's funeral a few months ago he looked like he was reading from a piece of paper. But the paper was blank and Tamori just pretended to be reading because, he said, it was a final joke for the deceased (who was a either a comedian or manga writer who discovered Tamori.) But still, another heartwarming show about how strange people from other countries are? Can't wait for 2010.

TV shows like these are just a bunch of tarento crying and getting mushy. The general public eats it all up though.

More trash from the talentless Tamori. Surely there is enough of him every day on the awful "Waratte ii tomo!"

I had to smile at this unrealistic comment. Tell this to his millions of fans. You can switch of the TV so you won't know whether he has talent to rivet people to his shows or not. But you don't seem to be able to judging by your comments. No offense intended. For someone like Tamori to have remained center stage for decades on national television is no mean feat; he must have some talent . . .

That's why he looks funny.

Expect a panel of atlest 30 experts "criers" who can shade tears when they hear "family/love etc etc". i didnt know "Crying" skill pays so much and there are so many tarentos available to choose and pick up from..

I've been (kind of) watching him on tv for almost 20 years and I can't say I've ever seen his eyes.

Why is the woman so OLD?? 29? Come on! Couldn't they find someone younger?

can't wait for the show about Afghanistan...

This 'kind of' explains it. I have seen his eyes!
Perfect age for a woman co-host. You are too old anyway yourself to demand anyone younger :-)

I was being sarcastic, pointing out that co-hosts are usually less than half the age of the men.. Oh, and I am younger than her. Does that make me "old"?
