Anyone watching this.  This show is awesome.  I fucking wish I could some of that shit but I'd probably end up breaking my neck.

I prefer the original Japanese version.

I love my country, of course, but I cannot stand attempts to "Americanize" things that aren't American.

All they're doing is taking something successful elsewhere, and do the same here.  It also happens the other way all the time.  It's smart business to model your endeavor off something that has a proven record.

Are you saying you can't tell apart Asian women from Asian men?

I understand the concept; I just feel that something gets lost in the translation. 

I'm sure the decision has been a profitable one for all concerned.

LOL...Diebeetus...I always laugh when I see that commercial and hear him pronounce it that way. He's a tough old fart, good actor.

What gets lost are all the contestants squinting all the time.

But I get your complaint, I just think it doesn't hold on this example.   The show is really cool, and the fact that the ultimate goal is to compete in Japan, takes away from it just being a chance to "americanize" something.  It's more like global expansion.
