Was talking about hot ones and how the premise isn’t totally random for the states. Got to thinking about what celebrity interview shows exist out there that are actually fucking bonkers but my googling didn’t turn anything up.
So anyone know of any truly weird premises that have been produced? Any language, any medium (TV, internet, etc), any year. Disqualifying factors would be, it can’t be scripted (like between two ferns), and the primary reason the interviewee is there has to be for the interview (as in no game shows). It should also be primarily interviewing celebrities and important people, but that can be a soft rule.
(I’m especially hoping for some bonkers premises from Japan.)
“Inas Nacht”’
Northern German dialect in a super tiny old sailor’s pub. Real, no backdrop. They drink real alcohol, any kind the guest prefers, and no topic has ever been taboo. From 2007 and ongoing on TV (some on youtube).

Weird question: I notice she pronounces the g in Hamburg with the ich-Laute, like Hamburch. I hear this all the time where I am, but we’re definitely not northern.
Does anyone know if that’s done everywhere in Germany or is it most commonly done in the north?
There are several regions where the g at the end of a word is pronounced like ch. In the north, it sounds different (stronger).

I wish I could understand German. Because the video seems fun and yeah that’s a pretty odd setting for a show that large.
