Sorry dude, you will not find any cool Japanese shows like that to my knowledge, because well, there are not any (sorry not a fan at all of Japanese TV), but yeah sitcoms are non-existant, dramas never have nearly the budget of American shows like Dr. House, and never seen a really cool documentary or science oriented show like Mythbusters.

Honestly, basically all Japanese TV has to offer is weird challenge shows, variety shows and shows where a bunch of famous people sit around and shoot the shit about whatever (this one gets reallllly old...) and shows about food, or traveling shows about local stuff (usually food). To me it is all just extremely repetitive, and just sickening to watch anymore. Once in while there might be something interesting, but there is simply no comparison between American TV and Japanese TV. Your best bet is to come over here, get cable, and watch dubbed over American shows if you want to watch something that won't make you want to blow your brains out (other than anime).
