Nippon Television Network Corporation (NTV) has announced the renewal of its annual New Year’s Eve series, “Laugh It Off. What does this have to do with Hitoshi Matsumoto’s “retirement declaration”?

NTV has announced the renewal of their annual New Year’s Eve show, “Downtown no Gaki no Tsukasa ya Arahende! series”. This year, instead, they’ll be presenting “Laughing New Year’s Eve! Laughing New Year’s Eve” (tentative) will be broadcast live this year instead.

In response to this, Hitoshi Matsumoto of “Downtown” wrote on Twitter on September 21

In response to this, “Downtown’s” Hitoshi Matsumoto wrote on Twitter on September 21, “Last year, I really felt that it would be difficult to record “Laugh It Up” in the Corona disaster.

He added. On top of that

It hurts me more than my butt to continue the show while lowering the quality for the people who look forward to it.

He also expressed his apologies to the fans.

In August, the BPO (Broadcasting Ethics and Program Improvement Organization) announced that it would be deliberating on “variety shows that use painful things as objects of laughter. In August, the BPO (Broadcasting Ethics and Program Improvement Organization) announced that “variety shows that use painful things as the object of laughter” would be subject to review, and the name of the show, which often uses “ass-butt” as a punishment game, was discussed on the Internet.

Matsumoto commented on the BPO announcement in “Widenashow” (Fuji Television Network).

“What annoys me is that the Internet news is stirring up conflicts by asking what will happen to Downtown’s programs, like the BPO versus Downtown. I’m more on the side of the BPO, you know.

I’m more on the side of the BPO.

I’m more on the side of the BPO,” he said, “and I want to make things interesting by pushing the rules to the edge. But the rules are changing. I want to make it interesting by attacking the rules on the edge. If my wish comes true, I would like to be included in the BPO.

If I could have my wish granted, I would like to be included in the BPO,” he said, revealing that he was forced to cope with the changing environment.

Another big lesson was learned by Ken Watabe of “Anjash” last year. “Initially, Watabe, who was ridiculed for his “toilet affair,” was scheduled to appear as the main guest on last year’s “Laugh It Up!

However, when some women’s magazines wrote about it, Matsumoto was furious. On the “Wide Na Show,” he said.

“It’s unthinkable. It’s unthinkable. This is a serious violation of the rules.

This is a severe violation of the rules. An entertainment industry insider added, “Mr. Matsumoto wrote an article for a women’s magazine.

“Mr. Matsumoto was more upset with the ‘culprit’ who leaked the information than with the women’s magazine he wrote about. He had been working on a super-secret project, and the fact that it was leaked meant that there was a ‘traitor’ among the people involved in the program.

Moreover, the script of the phantom scene of Mr. Watabe’s appearance was also leaked. It’s no wonder Mr. Matsumoto is in a bad mood. As a result, he ended up nipping the bud of Mr. Watabe’s comeback in the bud.

Is that why Matsumoto insisted on broadcasting the new program live? That’s why Matsumoto insisted on broadcasting the new show live, because it would prevent the surprise guest from being spoiled.

“Matsumoto-san is a person who hates a race. The reason why he insisted on a live broadcast, even breaking his annual routine, was probably because of the incident with Mr. Watabe,” said a TV station insider.

Many big-name guests are scheduled to appear in the new program. Some evening newspapers reported that Watabe is expected to make an appearance this time….

Some evening newspapers reported that Watabe was expected to appear on the show this time, but… “I wonder if Watabe himself has the energy to do so. I’m not sure if he has the energy to do so. If you pull him out, it’s sure to become a topic of conversation again. I think the program side will not go that far in consideration of sponsors.

Matsumoto also said in the “Wide Na Show” mentioned above.

“I don’t mind. I’ll be quitting in a few more years, really, really, really. I’m going to quit in a few more years, so I really, really don’t mind. But when I think about the people who will come after me, I think it’s better to have a wide range of options.

Ryutaro Ueoka and Shinsuke Shimada retired when they were around 60 years old, so Matsumoto, now 58 years old, is probably thinking about retiring.

However, a comedy insider said, “Mr. Matsumoto is the one and only. However, a comedy insider said, “Matsumoto is unique, and not only his company Yoshimoto Kogyo, but all comedians will do their best to stop him. We need him to continue to lead the pack.

He asserts. First of all, we hope that the new program, which has been changed from “Laugh It Off” to “Laugh It Off,” will become a new specialty program.
