No matter where one travels, television serves as a window into a nation's culture, from Japan's wacky game shows and India's Bollywood comedies to Colombia's beauty pageants and Israel's political satires. Featuring host and self-described entertainment addict Karla Cavalli, "Planet Primetime" spans the globe to find out what's weird, wild, funny, and even dangerous on TV. She experiences many of these global events firsthand by appearing as a guest star on sitcoms and soap operas and as a competitor on crazy game shows. Along the way, Cavalli gets help from local stars who explain their homeland's trends in pop culture entertainment and prep her for guest appearances.
