[Radio] Uchimura Teruyoshi makes a one-night comeback， Uchip says， “All of us are MCs．．．we’ve all become so important，” and thanks Ariyoshi and others for participating．
Comedian duo “Ucchan Nanchan” member Teruyoshi Uchimura (60) will appear on Nippon Broadcasting System’s “Teruyoshi Uchimura’s All Night Nippon Gold” (9:00 p.m.) on the 30th. He talked about the TV Asahi variety show “Uchimura Produce” (10:00 p.m.), which will be revived for one night only on the 28th. The program was popularly known as “Uchi-P” and was regularly broadcast in the late-night hours from 2000 to 2005. The show gained popularity for its plot structure, which tested comedic quick reaction times by having contestants compete to come up with the most funny responses to given topics and situations, and it was also a stepping stone for young comedians. Former cast members Hiroiki Ariyoshi, Bananaman, and Cream Stew’s Teppei Ariyoshi are confirmed to be taking part, and Uchimura commented, “All of them are MCs. Everyone has become so important. I am truly grateful.” “I haven’t shot one yet. Maybe it’s best not to get your expectations too high. Maybe I’m just spinning my wheels. I’ve been doing Uchimura Summers for over 10 years, so I’ve gotten used to the relaxed atmosphere. So I wonder if they can be so forceful about it. Also, everyone has become so important now that I don’t think I can say that much. I felt too shy. That’s why I’m sorry if it becomes less interesting. But I will try my best,” he commented. Related threads A total of 12 gorgeous comedians, including Hiroiki Ariyoshi, Bananaman, Teppei Arita, Degawa, Ogiyahagi, Anta, and Tim, have been confirmed to participate in the “Uchi-P” revival special.
There’s no way Ariyoshi could do the Cat Baron role completely naked now. Even if he forced himself to do it, he’d probably end up feeling embarrassed. Peron would be embarrassed, just like Ueda. MCs are monsters.
>>15 I’ve taken photos of myself in bondage and exhibited them, I’ve crawled around on all fours wearing a dog mask used in SM, and I’ve driven around Tokyo with a sex doll in the passenger seat, but I wonder if there are any jobs I can’t do.
During Uchi-P’s time, most of the young guys were well-known. I understand that it was a time when Ariyoshi didn’t have work, but other than that, I have the image of the guys who appear on TV.
>>27 That’s right, it’s a show with a signature theme, and the pay is in a different league. All comedians aim to become an MC, if they have the talent and aptitude for it.
Unnan helped Summer Sonic, Neptune, Cream Stew and others to become popular, but as their juniors became more popular, it was said at the end of their time as Uchi-P that the jobs they had given to Unnan were taken by their juniors. They had fallen on hard times with no regular TV appearances, but they made a comeback to the top with Itte Q! and Hirunandesu, so they must have had something special after all.
>>29 I think it’s because he was good friends with Watanabe’s president. Also, apparently a low-ranking member of a show he used to do became a big shot and brought him work.
>>29 Unnan has been a leading figure on TV variety shows for almost 40 years since the Paopao Channel days, so he’s really amazing. He doesn’t have the agency power of Yoshimoto talents.
