From my experience, while feature films in theaters are often subtitled (and when dubbed, are shown either subbed or dubbed on alternate screenings), most everything broadcast on Japanese TV has been dubbed into Japanese. Granted, anything that has been dubbed is almost always broadcast with both audio streams present. However, the default is always Japanese audio, so there would have to be a conscious effort to watch a show in English.
I believe between the high cost of movies in Japan and the almost universal OTA TV penetration that most foreign content in Japan is consumed dubbed, as opposed to subtitled.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
