Introducing a super improvisation variety show! The five program hosts are not informed about what will happen in the show prior to taping, and are expected to improvise on the spot.

The entertainment includes performing highly sophisticated cooking, live rock 'n' roll music and traditional Japanese comic storytelling. Through their entertaining antics, you will be able to see current Japanese trends, social conditions and entertainment from a new perspective.

■Each episode welcomes a top secret guest
The hosts are a popular Japanese idol group called "ARASHI" consisting of five young men. They welcome a top secret guest called a "Big Brother" whom they meet for the first time at the studio without rehearsals or preparation (really!). Each episode shows the hosts take on a new mission which they manage to do quite well. Enjoy watching the hosts' versatile skills, genuine reactions and explosive energy.

■Close encounters of the third kind
One of the hosts welcomes a topnotch guest from outside of the entertainment world. Sometimes the guest is a taxi driver who drives around Hollywood stars, an ace close-up magician or an up-and-coming illustrator. In each episode, the host must, of course, perform the task at hand without preparation or practice.
