About
Returning to its roots, Ken Shimura's classic comedy sketches will be revived, with each episode taking place in a different setting, such as a doctor's office, a park, a police box, an interrogation room, and a train. Of course, well-known characters such as Hen na Ojisan (Weird Uncle) and Grandma Hitomi will make appearances. In addition, the program will also include a location corner where the members will go out of the studio and visit all over Japan to meet local people and introduce their hometown pride!
