Synopsis
Diligent, mild-mannered Makoto works in the complaints department of Paradise Corporation, a fast-growing home-shopping firm. Makoto has a crush on Yuka, the queen of home shopping demonstrators, but he discovers Yuka and President Teraoka's secret. One day, Yuka doesn't show up in time for the show. In order to save the show, and so that Yuka's efforts will not have been in vain, Makoto appears before the cameras as Shopping Hero, in a Zorro-like costume, and begins pitching her product. His performance is such a success, that the president orders him to repeat his performance the next week.

1. There are pretty people in this! [Rating: 10/10]
Maybe it is just me, but I think Becky is awesome! She is so pretty, as you can tell I'm a crazy fan of hers... : )

The show is entertaining as well in a cheezy way!

2. So good!! Watch it!! [Rating: 10/10]
OMG, this is one of the best dramas I've ever seen. Very funny and touching.

3. Who is Becky? [Rating: 7/10]
I like the fact you get a simple message out of each episode. It is a little slow here and there, but I always enjoy the ending! And as a side note, Becky [aka Ally Yoshino] is hot! Does anyone know her full name?

Yoroshiku!

4. Superb laugh [Rating: 9/10]
I agree with all here, Becky is one of the cutest things I've seen! Who is she? Love this show over all, good humour all through the series, not ups and downs as it usually is in dramas. See it!

5. The meaning of the drama [Rating: 10/10]
I've always liked this drama because it gives us all a simple message that can mean so much to people. Also it's a great comedy. Without fail this drama is one of the best.

6. sorry... [Rating: 6/10]
I feel bad writing this....but, I really just couldn't get into this drama. Although many of my friends liked this drama and I respect their opinion on it, I just didn't like seeing a guy named Jimmy wearing a costume selling stuff on TV all the time. Some parts were funny, but it just wasn't my type of drama I guess.

Not so great...i think if it's 3 eps drama it would be good..but 11? it's just too much to handle...it just gets lamer.

Entertaining but slow drama. There are some funny moments. Only watch it if you have not else to watch.

This has mixed reviews, so not sure if it'll good. But the story looks interesting, so I'll give it a try.

Will review further when done watching.For some reason I expected nothing out of this series and yet I completely fell in love with it, even if it was a bit 'too much' at times. Mostly good to watch if you want to laugh slightly and enjoy a slow paced drama.

its alright, the title sounds stupid but every ending has a nice slice of life lecture.

A fun drama to watch...Ayako-chang is such a beauty!!

It was okay. There were a lot of funny moments, but to me it was really slow. I found myself bored in many parts.

Another over the top and wacky drama. Sometimes entertaining sometimes cheesy.
13. Comments by donna8157 [Rating: 6/10]
A drama about shopping and the promotion of shopping. It's as if there are less shoppers than usual. The drama was interesting to say the least for the first two episodes, but then after that it just became monotonous and lame. Already, the main character, Makoto, played by Nakamura Shunsuke was done well because he already had a certain aura of geekiness about him. His actions were pretty funny and entertaining, but again this was only true for the first two or three episodes.

The other side characters didn't contribute much if any to the overall plot and some rather than making the series more enjoyable, made it seem slower and more annoying. This drama is okay for light comedic viewing, but only watch it if you have nothing else to do. There are many better comedies to spend your time on.

This is one of those dramas that more people would vote for if they would just watch it. It's fun and different from other dramas, really cool. give it a chance! NOT just another love story.

Great drama.

Une idee super originale et bien realisee ! Les clins d'oeil aux series de super heros (superman n'est jamais bien loin...sauf qu'il ne fait pas du teleachat) sont omnipresents et donnent une ambiance sympa a cette serie. Les acteurs sont bien dans leur role.
Le divertissement pas prise de tete a son apogee ! (apres evidemment, ca vole pas bien haut, mais s'il fallait toujours que ca soit complique...)

I love the cheesy-ness! It might put off some people, but I think it was very enjoyable. This show is very heartwarming and fun.
24. Comments by AK [Rating: 9/10]
Tsuhan-man is so fun! I'm giving a 9 (and not a 10) because the first episodes (first two) tended to bore me. But after that, we it gets your attention. You love it. Every message at the end of every episode is special, every character is special.
Special mention to Teraoka's wife. ;)

Nerdy guy/Gorgeous girl co-workers formula. Just average.
29. Comments by Space Cat [Rating: 9/10]
Tsuhan-man was a funny, and very uplifting drama. Although I can't say much for the part of romance, the simple yet deep messages left after every episode never ceased to amaze me.
