* MyHovercraftIsFullOfEels: One contestant's attempt at pronouncing "fuitte mo ii desu ka?" ("May I wipe it?") was subtitled "But, the well is it Switzerland?"[[note]]The subtitler appears to have interpreted it as "demo ido suissu ka?" but his pronunciation was closer to "te mo idu suissu ka" which would at best translate to "Are hands also (gibberish) Switzerland?" -- nothing in the entire Japanese language sounds anything remotely like "idu."[[/note]]

* FakeBalance: The second season introduced "advantages" that would allow the team who won the first game to gain a bonus in the elimination game. The problem with this mechanic is that the advantages were often ''massively'' imbalanced and were [[GameBreaker so overpowered]] that the team who won the first round was nearly guaranteed to win the second. This resulted in a CurbstompBattle in many episodes and made the winning team very easy to predict, and is partially blamed for killing viewership.

ABC reality show that pitched two teams of American contestants against each other in dwindling numbers on a [[ShowWithinAShow simulated]] game show called ''Hai! Majide''. In the first season the teams were called the Yellow Penguins and Green Monkeys, the second season the Green Tigers and the Red Robots. Then it wasn't renewed.
