There's a tv show on TV Asahi called Ame Talk.
This show has been featuring otaku topics for quite sometimes now and I can say that comedians on this show made it look rather cool to have sufficient knowledge in amine like Gundam, Evangelion, and some other non-anime related topics that are considered nerdy.
Anyways, if some of you are interested in watching Japanese TV on line, google TVU and download this program.
It's awesome because I can watch almost all the major TV stations online!!
I haven't tried too many channels other than Japanese ones and Fox Soccer Channel, but there are many channels available through TVU.

I did that, but the only Japanese channels coming up is one news channel, 3 music channels and 1 funny channel with crappy quality.. :/
