They must work to make money out of nothing by creating items out of junk and selling them on e-commerce apps.<\/p>\n<p>Whoever earns the most cash within the time limit will be crowned the winner. Due to high ratings after its July premiere on Nippon TV, it has already been renewed for a second season for later this year.<\/p>\n<p>The second new format is <em>Life\u2019s Punchline<\/em>, a scripted drama-comedy series. It follows three young comedians who decide to give up their dreams as they face life\u2019s obstacles. The series was broadcast weekly on Nippon TV from April to June and has earned almost 14 million total views to date on VOD.<\/p>\n<p>Mikiko Nishiyama, managing director, said: \u201cOur two new formats for this fall are unique in that their idiosyncrasies and quirks give them quite the twist. Following in the footsteps of Nippon TV\u2019s highly successful business format <em>Dragons\u2019 Den<\/em>\/<em>Shark Tank<\/em>, with more than 40 versions in 186 territories, <em>Money or Junk<\/em> was created with a business concept at its core, updated with craft, survival elements for the entire family audience in the digital era. Additionally, <em>Life\u2019s Punchline<\/em> has \u2018clues\u2019 that will make viewers drop their jaws in surprise and laughter. The story centers around a comedy trio, and each episode opens with a comedic skit, which eventually blends into bigger plots of drama. Vividly depicting each character\u2019s worries and emotional conflicts in their late 20s that stem from their dream, job, family and romantic interest, viewers are sure to find someone they can relate to.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nippon TV has revealed a new business game-show format and a scripted drama-comedy format for international distribution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":8443,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[314],"class_list":["post-8442","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-nippon-tv","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Nippon TV Unveils New Formats - TVFORMATS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/nippon-tv-unveils-new-formats\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Nippon TV Unveils New Formats - TVFORMATS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Nippon TV has revealed a new business game-show format and a scripted drama-comedy format for international distribution.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/nippon-tv-unveils-new-formats\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVFORMATS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-09-13T15:06:27+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2021-09-13T15:45:04+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2017\/07\/MoneyorJunk-NipponTV-0921.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"320\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/nippon-tv-unveils-new-formats\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/nippon-tv-unveils-new-formats\/\",\"name\":\"Nippon TV Unveils New Formats - TVFORMATS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2021-09-13T15:06:27+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2021-09-13T15:45:04+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/nippon-tv-unveils-new-formats\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/nippon-tv-unveils-new-formats\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/nippon-tv-unveils-new-formats\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Nippon TV Unveils New Formats\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/\",\"name\":\"TVFORMATS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\",\"name\":\"Jamie Stalcup\",\"description\":\"Jamie Stalcup is the executive editor of World Screen.
