Pankun and James are a genius chimpanzee and stupid bulldog (great contrast), who appear on Japanese television show "Tensai! Shimura Dōbutsuen". Most of the segments feature Pankun and his bulldog friend, James performing simple tasks such as taking a train, buying shoes, making ramen, catching insects, harvesting rice, etc.
The show has also been translated into international versions in various places - India, Taiwan, Thailand and Hong Kong.
Among the various video clips, I like most is this video featuring Pankun and James working out in a gym with a group of school kids.
cute! never saw it when in Japan; but then I didn't watch children's TV ;-)
ReplyDeleteDo you think you can find out which Indian channel broadcasts it? It would be GREAT for Zeenat to watch.
