The end of Takeshi Castle and other Japanese physical formats on Challenge?
17 years Takeshi Castle started on Challenge and became one of the channel's top rating shows. The success saw Challenge pick up more Japanese physical formats.
But the Takeshi Castle and Ninja Warrior haven't been on Challenge for months and it does look unlikely to return as Sky have stopped caring Challenge by losing the feedback interaction on social media and stopping updating the pages.
What do DuffDan, Messup434, ScottGamer17 and others think of my observation?

Ninja Warrior has been airing on Sky Two lately, in fact just last week.

Re: The end of Takeshi Castle and other Japanese physical formats on Challenge?
Looking at their schedules, the only thing obstacle related at all this week is Total Wipeout. It's been just quizzes for months on end and I honestly think it must be at least a year since TC was last shown, half a year since the last NW. I still hope challenge will air these again at some point, especially the final series of TC they did which hasn't been shown for a few years now, but I do accept that challenge will be almost all quiz shows from now on unless there's a takeover (which, let's be honest, is highly unlikely). The sad truth about a once great channel.

Re: The end of Takeshi Castle and other Japanese physical formats on Challenge?
Quiz shows are great, but none seem to offer as much as Takeshi's Castle. And I imagine all the quiz shows they show are ooooold anyway.
Strange that they don't show the last season of TC as much as the others, seeing as it is one of the more popular ones
