Mainichi Daily News is currently running a story about Love Love Chen, a Japanese game show where disgruntled wives can trade in their husband for three days and two nights for a new man who "matches their idea of a perfect partner". The show has been a huge hit for TV Nagoya since it started broadcasting in May this year. What's unexpected is that the show is aired on TV Nagoya instead of some tacky late night adult channel.

The ratings for the show are promising and what's unsurprising is that women like the show more than men, which is mainly due to the way wives get the better of their slacker husbands on the show.
