Post some TV from not your country. Specials, Series, one-off events, whatever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=us7u9HDRT1k Apparently Christmas/New Years in Britain is celebrated by taking some Comedians and mid-level Celebrities, and having them compete in a trivia program for no real point other than the possibility of some jokes. It's pretty alright, and this one I watched features Noel Fielding and Richard Ayoade as the highlights, mainly taking the giving the wrongest answers to questions they have no idea about. Also, there's a really cheesy dance by a old weatherman that's fairly cringy.

Terrace house: boys and girls in the city is a Japanese reality show that got picked up by netflix. In the show three boys and three girls move into a flat in tokyo and live together. It has some differences that make feel different to other shows. Firstly the people aren't locked in the house. They get jobs and go out to restaurants or out on dates. They still live their life. Second there's no prize or goal, they're there to make friends and live their life, theres no cash prize or eliminations or anything that encourages lovely behaviour. Thirdly people leave because they want to: once they feel like they've gotten what they need to from living in the house, or if they've achieved something and want to move on they pack up and go. Then someone else moves in to replace them. Fourth is no camera interviews: you find out how they feel about things by how they talk to the housemates or occasionally friends. Its much more real. Fifth is the support they give each other: because there is no reason to conflict built in to the show the people help each other, up to the point that when two guys are interested in the same girl the resolution is 'you ask her out and she can date who she prefers'. Sixth is no gimmick casting: the producers don't send people in to cause conflict. They don't pick people to deliverately clash and just allow interpersonal drama to unfold naturally. Its a lovely show and really worth the time. It can be a bit slow burn but its really heartwarming. It also has a wild last few episodes so don't research it too much as you'll spoil yourself.

Some of you might've seen it already, but I find this Russian adaptation of Winnie the Pooh very charming  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqdiEUp6s4E

There's a German show where a police dog helps an incompetent idiot solve crimes. I don't remember the name but I watched it dubbed and it helped me learn Italian.

Yes, that's it! The dog does all the heavy lifting and the guy just acts like he solved the case.

Pocky In My Pocket posted:The best new year show is gaki no tsukai's no laughing series I think I always like the 24 Hour Tag best though. The no laughings always have some personalities and references I don't get because I don't live in Japan, but tag is just pure physical comedy.
