Lincoln (variety show)

LINCOLN (リンカーン) is a Japanese variety show. It premiered on October 18, 2005, and airs on TBS every Tuesday nights. Hosted by Downtown, it features seven other "owarai geinin" (comedians) in its regular cast, and has several recurring younger, more inexperienced comedians as guests.

The show uses Abraham Lincoln as its mascot, and its slogan is: "The program of the "geinin", by the "geinin", for the "geinin"," parodying a line from his famous Gettysburg Address. The object of the show is to have the younger comedians watch and learn from the more experienced comedians through fun and games.

The opening uses the song "The Revolution" by BT and features the regular cast as superheroic "anime" characters in a futuristic setting. The animation was done by Studio 4°C, a studio well known for The Animatrix.
