    What would this program look like? Koby doing five or six straight challenges in one episode?

    Maybe competing against multiple challengers at once. But the truth is, as good as Kobayashi is, I think his English would have to be way better to star in a TV show like this. It could be subtitled, but I mean, interaction with common folk is a big part of these shows.

    I like the idea of a “Koby vs the Joes” concept… but the language thing can’t be ignored.

    I hope its in Japan I can’t ever understand him! I’m not reading subtitles & there is no point in giving him a show. You know how many stunts he’d have to do to fill a time slot? He’d run out of challenges after half a season.
