Fuck that.

I can't believe I'm contributing to Himitsu no Arashi-chan's fucking ratings this week. What a bunch of lazy cunts! They don't have an episode for a month and then this week they just slash together previous episodes. They've played the same previews for next week's "special" about 5 times because they don't have enough shit to reply to even fill the 50 minutes! What a fucking rip off. I think there's barely been 15 minutes of new studio footage throughout the whole show. I am not impressed.

I really hope the announcer for this show gets paid big money. He talks more than anyone else on this damn show.

However, I am excited for the special next week. I want to see if Nino is as good at Mario as I am lead to believe a gamer of his calibre is.

Make that 6 times.

Yeah, I don't know what's going on with HnA. The girls that I "work" with on a subbing team were freaking out about the lack of episodes. It seems like there was just some sort of huge fuck-up on the part of TBS.

Well, I would believe that but it was also the Baseball World Classic (and Japanese baseball trumps all other TV -- how many times did GnA get pushed back?) and award shows and various other SPs were airing... it's like award season in the States with the Grammys, Emmys, Oscars, etc etc etc. That's how I'm seeing it. But to come back after a month with this shit? Talk about fucking lazy. Might as well just air that fucking preview on the commercials of some other show.

I thought Himitsu was going to be canceled? Maybe that's why it sucks so much?

I really wouldn't be surprised if it did. It's total crap compared to how it started it but I am convinced that TBS overhauled and created a different show than what they started with. The set is different, the format is different, even the name is different. There aren't any ratings listed on the Wikipedia page (not like Shukudai-kun) but I can't imagine it's doing very well at all.

It was so awesome before. D: Especially when they were wearing those suits. I miss the suits so much. Ohno looked too adorable in them. I need to rewatch Maou again.

I wish they would have made Shukudai a whole hour, instead of making another whole new show.

That would have been ideal if the ratings are the same. But I think it might be harder to get people to stay up that late...? Like, staying up til 1230 for a show is one thing, but 1 is kind of pushing it. Maybe? I don't know. I don't understand TV station's decisions sometimes.

Woah. *O*
I thought that the Mario sp aired this week. :\
