The guest on the antique-appraisal show "Kaiun! Nandemo Kanteidan" ("Good Fortune! Team That Evaluates Anything"; TV Tokyo, Tues., 8:54 p.m.) is Hiroshi Yamamoto, the silver medalist in archery at the 2000 Athens Olympics.
Yamamoto brings his huge collection of Disney-themed lapel pins and badges for appraisal. He says that in international competitions, contestants would exchange souvenirs with opponents, usually lapel pins depicting the names of their respective archery clubs, but he found that badges he'd buy from Disneyland were much more popular. Now, whenever he travels overseas he goes to flea markets and other antique stores in search of any Disney pin or badge.
NHK pays tribute to a common artistic muse — the house cat. Over four consecutive nights starting Monday, the docudrama series "Omae Nashi dewa Ikite Ikenai" ("I Can't Live Without You"; BS Premium, 8 p.m.) will present four famous artists and their cats.
