I was in Japan, and I was so sad to find out that that show hasn't been on there for at least 10 years...  And Vic Romano is an old Japanese guy now, he's still on T.V., but he hosts a political discussion show, still a bit humorous, but old.  I love MXC though, Takeshi's Castle was the shit!
'...Smoking's bad, smoking killed my dad. Yeah, he was driving down the highway one day and as he was lighting his cigarette, it blew out the window. So he jumps out the door to save it, and ran himself over. Uh, you mind if I smoke?' -Olie Ollaussen, Ski Bum extraordinaire
