Episode #1349 2017.04.02 - Legendary Segment Revival

I’ve vaguely titled this episode because the episode description doesn’t really state what they’re doing this week, other than referring to it as a ‘legendary segment’. Some clues in the description indicate that it’s the first time in 8 years that this segment has been used and that it will showcase the ‘power of Downtown’s comedy’.

Any takers on what this may be? I’m getting a feeling it may be a Free Talk segment of the old manzai-style talk, not the Costume Talk we’ve been accustomed to seeing these past few years. For trivia’s sake, the last Free Talk segment was almost 8 years ago in 2009 (Episode #983, 2009.12.06, to be exact).

It’s free talk apparently, with new stage design.
I, personally, don’t like it.

Neither do I. It seems they want to do some kind of revamp for the show, but trying it to be a bit more ‘‘classy’’.

Btw I don’t like the new font for the show name, I guess we’ll have to watch the episode and draw our own conclusions.

Is this the Gaki forum or the killjoy forum? Cheer up guys !

It needs subs now hehehe :bow:

That’s a silly stage alright, but it’s still a pleasure seeing these two on it :clap:

To me, it felt a lot like their old talks despite the new look, and there were some pretty funny bits. My highlight would be that part about a pitcher taking out both a gorilla and Ieyasu :D
