Japanese Comedy: Salaryman Neo
Posted on 27. Sep, 2007 @ 1:34 am by harvey in Culture, Humor, Language, Media
I don’t watch much TV, but one show I always try to catch is Salaryman Neo (サラリーマンネオ).
During its season Salaryman Neo is on NHK 11pm Tuesdays. It runs short seasons however, and the 2nd season just ended this week.
Of course, you can catch great clips of Salaryman Neo on Youtube!
One of my favorite, and most popular skits is of セクスィー部長 (Sexy Bucho), the sexy section manager… He uses his hot, hot, HOT Latin style to render women powerless and keep his employees safe. Bossy female customers? Tough consultants? Said a little too much at the bar the night before? Sexy Bucho to the rescue.
I’m sure you can find the rest from there. I think the later skits are actually even funnier than the earlier ones, so be sure to watch a few!
There is more to Salaryman Neo than just Sexy Bucho, check out some of the other skits as well.
I love this stuff.
