Reaction To Kummeli - Rapakymppi (Finnish Comedy)

[@fox-in-the-green]

In Finland there used to be a dating show called Napakymppi (Bullseye) and this is a parody of that show called Rapakymppi (Rapa = dirt, mud)

[@Raumance]

In this context rapa refers to moral degenaration not literally mud.

Kummeli never gets out of date. it is brilliant.

[@nicechock]

Just for context these were filmed in the 90s or end of the 80s. This is why there are the caricature of the black man and other things.

[@jane_7193]

@@nicechock Ok, thanks. I noticed that in the tax man he requested the receipts from the year 2001. So, perhaps there are filmings from three decades?

[@nicechock]

@@jane_7193 Yes thats correct

[@penaarja]

Yes we had Napakymppi on tv fooor loong time, there was one trip To Finland, one To erurope and best was To some far away place. this is great parody of it

[@ilpoheikkila4773]

So true! The only thing that could have made it even better would have been if the host would have looked and sounded like Kari Salmelainen (the legendary Napakymppi host). But Kummeli is the best! I’ve loved them since 1993 or so when I saw the first one from them. I’m so glad they still air Kummeli in TV here in Finland (although I of course have everything but that one comeback show on DVD too and also that CD they released).

[@ilarikousa1500]

@@ilpoheikkila4773 As Mert mentions in the video, Napakymppi was based on a format called Blind Date.

[@finnishculturalchannel]

I'm pretty sure that's George Benson: "Kummeli - George Benson This Is The Night". The same dating game was made in Finland too, between 1985-2002, with the name 'Napakymppi' (Bullseye). It was a popular show. Not the least for its matchmaker host Kari Salmelainen, and the chemistry he had with the shy pianist Kaj ”Kaitsu” Wessman. The show aired before there was social media etc., so the atmosphere was slightly on the awkward side when regular people found themselves on the national TV in front of a live audience: "Napakymppi pätkä (1991?)". The couples got to go on a trip. Obviously one of the highlights was when the couples got to go on the worst of the three trips possible; meaning the domestic weekend somewhere in Finland. The best candidate had a week trip to some Mediterranean holiday resort or such. Also the stories from those trips are legendary. Some ended up married and some did not-let's put it like that. 'Napa' means navel, pivot, pole, center. 'Napakymppi' is like 'center ten'. I guess 'Perfect match' in this case. 'Rapa' means mud, so 'Rapakymppi' would mean 'not so perfect match'. Metal band Stam1na has made their version of the show. It's a bit on the raunchy side. Part of the joke is that the Miss X on the dating show is a former adult entertainer: "Stam1na - Lääke".

Raino, Reimo and Raimo. 😂

[@jimphilidor9031]

Back in the 80's, when we had only two TV stations, about half of the population watched Napakymppi. They did have travel locations in the Finnish version too. At least one of the places was some super boring sounding place in Finland.

[@BorderGuardJaegerFinlandia]

That dating show was popular in Sweden as well... 😂

[@arttuvesterinen6984]

Kari Salmelainen, the finnish-host was adopted from Sweden among the show.

[@tuukka3580]

wed ad a daating show which were univeersal I thin. Ther mayve alotof similar shoos bu this one is most common in fin in the 90's i think. Hilarious vid thank you. 🤣

[@SimoExMachina2]

"Rapakymppi" is a spoof of a popular dating show on tv called "Napakymppi" which was based on the format of American tv show Dating Game.

Second that, I think those are one of the best ones :D

[@ViikatemiesFIN]

Rapakymppi is a "word-play" from a tv show called Napakymppi. It was based on american The Dating Game program.

[@Jani-wr1dn]

It's a parody of the same tv-show.. In Finnish it was Napakymppi... Hence Rapakymppi... and. for reference rapa in this contex would mean approximately the litter of the bottom

[@MikaTarkela]

When I was a kid I always wondered why my parents liked to watch Napakymppi but after a couple of years I realized the tv show host was drunk af in some of the episodes. It's hilarious.

[@finman8383]

Kummeli Tonnin seteli. Legend

[@qazwsxqwaszxzaqxswxz]

It's not James Bond, he says Jane Fonda

[@ThatBonsaipanda]

"Rapakymppi" non-literal translation would be something like "Trash-dating" or "Soil mate"

[@Tuomas_Oskari]

In other words, this is a parody of the Napakymppi relationship program that was shown on Finnish TV at the time. Napakymppi was based on the American program format The Dating Game. The idea was that Ms. or Mr. X asked the representatives of the opposite sex behind the wall, of which there were three, different questions and based on the answer tried to choose a suitable partner. In the end, the couple went on a holiday trip to the destination that was written on the roll of paper next to the seat of the contestant chosen as a couple. And that travel destination was only revealed at the end, when it was first shown what the other two possible travel destinations would have been

[@Aquelll]

Also important note about the travel destinations. There was one Finnish location, one nearby European one and one in a fancy place outside Europe. And the reveal of where the new couple goes was my favourite part of the show.

[@Tuomas_Oskari]

@@Aquelll and those items were apparently based on how well the computer had evaluated X's choice of partner. The farthest destination was for the competitor that the computer had given as the first choice, the domestic destination for the one that the computer had assessed as the least likely choice

[@Yupppi]

Can you imagine how many times I've heard these answers irl in the last 25 years? The amount of "intelligent, big butt maybe" on tinder bios. Or the reverse. I'm fairly sure he replied "Jane Fonda" instead of James Bond. Underfloor heating is amazing, can't argue with that. My grandparents had a water accident in the piping at our cabin in the winter and the insurance company allowed them to get an underfloor heating in the bottom floor. It is a bliss because it has to be kept on overwinter so now the cabin is usable without heating it up for a week before you go there.

[@Jani-wr1dn]

and kymppi is just 10

[@presidentforlife1732]

The subtitles have an error, when asked what film star do you look like, the man in the middle says Jane Fonda, not James Bond.

[@tellu5836]

This was an old fashioned version of date programs. Meant to be humorous, which it is.

[@leokeskinen8929]

I don't think the translation does any justice for the show. Imo the way they speak is in a big role

[@leopartanen8752]

Actually the name "Rapakymppi" is already a hilarious word play from the show called "Napakymppi". 😅 Napakymppi = Bullseye from the words napa (pole) and kymppi (ten) Rapa = dirt/mud, but in this context dregs/scum.

[@squidcaps4308]

This is closer to US original version of that show where the prices really were laminate floors and such. The Finnish show had holiday trips as a price. The same show format has been copied in about every single country, before we got franchises and copyrights in order. Now you can't just blatantly copy things but back in the 80s... Finnish pop culture stole so much that you can easily say that we stole more than developed our own stuff.. In the 50-s and 60s pop charts where mostly Italian pophits, translated to Finnish and not always crediting the original author since.. the original author didn't even know that Finland exists and had no real way to sue. Now things are very different, you can't get away with it. But it was very easy way to become a hit in Finland at the time, just take a song or a show that already existed and claimed it as your own. There are also tons of sketches that were stolen, Spede was one of those that scoured international comedy to just.. steal stuff. I kind of get it, he has doing quantity, not quality and unlike today.. didn't have 12 comedy writers, there were super tiny teams that did the shows. Try to do one hour of comedy once a week having just 4 guys writing...

I don't know why they gave presents in this one instead of trips abroad.

it´s just a parody of a old show. can´t probably be that insightfully viewed by someone who hasn´t gorwn up with the show...

[@Karpalet]

There are a mistake in the translation though. "Olen rapu" -> "I'm a cancer" is wrong. It should be "I'm a crab". And am I the only one who thinks Kummeli is such a horrible show :'D It's like everyone else likes it and I've always been like what's funny in this xD

The sign in the Zodiac (eläinrata/horoskooppimerkkien joukko) is cancer, as an animal crab is the correct translation.

Similar wordings to BULLSEYE, but the opposite meaning, and more like a visual version. Refers to fat jokes.
