Just caught the last 15 minutes of this game show this afternoon and I was genuinely laughing. Silent Library is a Japanese game show that MTV picked up. Like the trailer says, “the rules are simple.” All you have to do is stay quiet and your team collectively wins money. After some quick research on Wiki and Google, I find a clip from the actual Japanese version.

Some of the Japanese challenges seems more harsh than American challenges. But, that is what makes Japan, Japan. I can’t wait for the next episode of this Japanese import. Thank you MTV, for actually entertaining me and going back on the right track of non “reality” TV shows. Next, we should talk about going back to your roots of music videos.
