So one of my coworkers got me into this show. Has anyone seen it? It's a Japanese reality show like the original seasons of the Real World, where strangers in their 20s live in a "Terrace House" in Tokyo. There are also commentators (mostly Japanese comedians are actors) who are very funny. I am pretty much obsessed with it right now, about 15 episodes into the "Girls & Boys in the City" one. I like that it basically doesn't do any of the nastiness or fake drama of American reality television and is quite slow paced – allowing the small, nuanced tensions to build up as they do in real life when cameras are not on. I also like most of the people on the show, they seem like thoughtful, engaged kids.
It's bizarre how addicting it is.
