Overview
‘Shimura-ken’ was a comedy variety programme broadcast on the Fuji TV network every Thursday from 14 April 2010 to 28 March 2012, from 1:10 to 1:40 am (late Wednesday night, JST). It was Ken Shimura’s own show, produced by Izawa Office. ‘Shimuraya Desu’ has been revamped as ‘Shimura-ken’! Centred on Ken Shimura, the owner of ‘Ken-chan Ramen’—a small ramen shop in a working-class neighbourhood—and his wife Yuka, the programme features Ryuhei Ueshima, a lazy bloke who visits the shop every day, Katsuhiro Higo, the owner of ‘Poem’—a Showa-era-style coffee shop opposite Ken-chan Ramen— his wife Haruna Kondo, and Haruka Minowa, a part-timer at Poem with a vivid imagination. Set against the backdrop of these two shops—the sort you might find anywhere in a working-class neighbourhood—the show delivers heart-warming, laugh-out-loud sketches born from everyday life! With new regulars Yuri Morishita and Misaki Momose joining the line-up, fresh laughter is guaranteed!
