Just caught the last 15 minutes of this game show this afternoon and I was genuinely laughing. Silent Library is a Japanese game show that MTV picked up.  Like the trailer says, “the rules are simple.”  All you have to do is stay quiet and your team collectively wins money.  After some quick research on Wiki and Google, I find a clip from the actual Japanese version.

Some of the Japanese challenges seems more harsh than American challenges.  But, that is what makes Japan, Japan.  I can’t wait for the next episode of this Japanese import.  Thank you MTV, for actually entertaining me and going back on the right track of non “reality” TV shows.  Next, we should talk about going back to your roots of music videos.

    Late 80′s ‘Remote Control’ was the best show ever on MTV! Not sure if if anyone else can remember that show. Like I said, late 80′s and MTV was still playing music vids… Headbangers Ball, 120 Minutes, Club MTV, Yo! MTV Raps… all these shows rocked…

    I thought this show was awful. Let’s roll a bowling ball into some guy’s junk and watch him try to be quiet. There’s really nothing to it. Jackass was hysterically funny. Yo! MTV Raps is incredible, Rob and Big was the funniest reality TV show made, Beavis and fucking Butthead. I mean seriously. Bad choice.
