Maybe this should have stayed in Japan...

File this under "shit you watch when it's one in the morning and you don't want to go to sleep because you have a lot of work to do when you wake up."

So I was watching The Soup last night, and they had one clip from a game show that I just could not believe existed. As they said on The Soup, they "were going to call it the 'Hit Fat People With a Wall and Try to Drown Them' show, but that didn't test well."

It's called Hole in the Wall. It's on Fox. And it's the American version of a Japanese show. Of course.

The premise is, there's a wall. With a hole in it. And if you don't fit through the hole, the wall knocks you into a pit of neon water. That's it. Oh, and the contestants have to wear the world's least flatteriing mylar outfits.

So they have full episodes online. So I watched one. Okay, two. It's just...addictingly crappy. Like, how the hell do they find people to participate on a show like this? Who chooses to humiliate themselves by getting their fat hips stuck in a wall that then dumps them in a vat of water? And who the hell is in the audience, because I don't believe this show has fans.

The best part, though, is that before each round, the announcer says in a deep dramatic voice, "It's time to face the hole." ... Was that as dirty in Japanese?

It's a Torchwood post not related to Children of Earth!

In case anyone on the internet has missed this, David Tennant plants one on John Barrowman at a panel at San Diego Comic Con.

( It happens at about the five minute mark )

I didn't actually listen through the rest of it, so I have no idea if there are spoilers for things, recent or upcoming. So if you're worried for that, you can skip it. Or just fast forward.
