Japan is a land of disasters both man-made and natural, and the theme of the TV Tokyo variety special,
"Totsugeki Kaimei Variety: Shiranai to Kowai Sekai" ("Shock Illumination Variety: What You Don't Know Can Scare You"; Mon., 8 p.m.), is everyday dangers you never expect.
Host Masaaki Sakai introduces a series of immersive reports by the usual complement of comedians on these dangers. The duo Ungirls, for instance, look at the perils of lightning at a special facility set up to carry out research into electrical phenomena. They learn how to stay safe in a thunderstorm, whether out in the open or in a car.
