Okaasan to Issho (roughly translated, "With Mother") is a long-running show on NHK in Japan (since 1959) aimed at preschool children, much like The BBC's Watch with Mother. The show is a collection of sketches, songs and dances, many designed to be interactive with the child's parents (specifically, Mommy, see Housewife below). Actual children are usually part of the show and interact with the hosts.The show's hosts are four young adults, two dancers/gymnasts and two singers, one of each sex, respectively. New hosts are rotated in roughly every five years to keep the hosts young (and more relatable to children, one would suppose). Many prior hosts have gone on to become pop stars and actors in mainstream Japanese culture. Additionally, there are four full body suited actors playing a series of characters and skits. These, too, are constantly changed out every few years (though it's possible it's the same people in the costumes).Animated shorts that played in the series include: Konnakoirukana (1986-1991): A series about twelve characters with their own unique personalities. It is the first animated short series made for Okaasan to Issho. Futari wa Nakayoshi: Guu and Sue (1991-1994): A narrated series about two young siblings named Guu and Sue. Fushigina Ano Ko wa Sutekina Kono Ko (1994-1997): Anthropomorphic animals interact with each other. Princess Spoon's Swing Kitchen (1997-1999): A series featuring living tableware about a spoon playing with her cup friend. Yancharu Moncha (1999-2002): A series about a mischievous green tea monkey. Boku no Tomodachi (1999-2004): A series about a rice cooker and several living appliances. Deko Boko Friends (2002-2011): A series about twelve, later eighteen characters with various personalities and appearances. It is the longest running animated short series in Okaasan to Issho, and the only one exported outside of Japan. Pants Pankuro (2004-2008): A series that teaches young children good bathroom habits and hygiene. Tomodachi Hachi Nin (2011-2019): Follows nine characters with their own personalities, one that is the main character of each episode, interact with each other. Yowa Mushi Monsters (2012-2017): An angel-like character teaches viewers how to repel monsters by showing their weakness (such as throwing a kiss, clapping, or making faces). Also known as Yowamon. Mojo Moji Obake Bake Matsu (2014-2019): A ghost wearing a hood transforms an object or animal by changing its name.The current hosts are: Atsuko Ono: Singer Yuichiro Hanada: Singer (is the lead host most of the time) Risa Uehara: Dancer Yoshihisa Kobayashi: Dancer/Gymnast (does the ending theme, wears brightly colored jumpsuits)The show can be seen in the United States on the premium Japanese-language channel TV Japan weekday and Saturday mornings. Saturday shows are generally reruns or broadcasts of the show's Family Concert events. | |

Writing Around Trademarks | |
| Okaasan to Issho / int_d4c98786 | comment |
Writing Around Trademarks: Kobayashi (along with Itou as his assistant) plays a trickster type in one recurring sketch, changing a picture and making kids guess what was changed about it. His costume is awwwwwfully close to the Riddler's outfit from Batman (let's hope no one from WarnerMedia ever catches Japanese children's programming). | |

Housewife | |
| Okaasan to Issho / int_d5d265ec | comment |
Housewife: Often a criticism of the show is its rather traditional presentation of the family unit. Any mother depicted is always a housewife (and as mentioned, the interactive dances and such are meant to be done With Mother), and Dad is always the guy who leaves every day in a suit with a briefcase. | |

Artistic License – Music | |
| Okaasan to Issho / int_e603890a | comment |
Artistic License – Music: One episode contains a skit for a music video called Rock N Roll Dragon that has the hosts pretending to be a rock band. Mitani and Itou are the guitarist and bassist and obviously have no clue how to play, and they don't even fake it (they simply hold the guitars rigidly). Kobayashi behind the skins seems to know what he's doing, though. | |

Engrish: It's probably a good thing that very few of the target audience can read some of the Engrish shirts that have appeared on the show (a 3-year-old wearing a "Gay Jews for Jesus" shirt immediately comes to mind...). | |
