I got ‘Wakenabeb’ed!

I chanced upon this title while scanning thru today’s TV listings. Thinking Wakenabeb was a Japanese war drama, I sought to immediately investigated.

Instead, I found out that the show was going to be very reminisce of the still popular hit TV Show Punk’d. READ: Ripoff. However, the show is hosted by the guy who played the sultan in the movie Puteri Gunung Ledang. I think that in itself should give this show worth a look.
“Adlin Aman Ramli heads this hidden camera scam where we catch the celebrity off guard and we "kenakan" them!”
For the benefit of those whose Malay is a little rusty-

Wakenabeb! -> Wa Kena Beb!
Wa Kena Beb -> Gua Kena Beb!
Gua Kena Baby -> Saya sudah tekena (dengan perbuatan awak)!

Which can be loosely translated to mean - 'You got me!'. Everybody gets it? Carry on.

Wakenabeb! - Thursday 8:30 pm on ntv7

Wakenabeb!: Ziana Zain

Image
Not satisfied with the amount of complains they got from MCMC (Malaysian Communications & Multimedia Commission) over the Marsha fiasco , the Wakenabeb! team is trying top themselves again by harassing ex-singer Diva herself (and I use this word ‘harassing’ as lovingly as I can), Ziana Zain. Finally, a Malaysian star that I actually know. I’m not sure what the setup is but it involves her being robbed by 3 penyamuns (Trans: robbers) and latter being blind folded. Local reality television doesn’t get any better than this. Wakenabeb! (Season 3) - Thursday 8:30 pm on ntv7
