TRICK ep.4

Sora kara furu ichioku no hoshi, sort of a slow drama but the intrique is picking up, only about 1,000 possilbilities that could happen, :nut: Takuya as usual has been quite good. :applaud:

The real star of that drama for me was Sanma Akashiya as the burnt out detective.

OT: Magerarenai Onna epi 4. Still real good. :applaud:

I think the real star was his pack of cigarettes...they got more airtime than anyone else.

:hehe: I actually don't remember the brand b/c it's been so long since I watched that drama...but I agree it was a solid show.

Marlboros, still don't know how he manages to take a shower without getting them wet. :bleh: True, Sanma Akashiya so far has been the star, aren't all detectives burned out though. :beaten:

Hello,

Lately I have started for the first time to watch NHK Taiga dramas . I have watched online the first 5 episodes of 3 Taiga dramas (Atsu Hime, Tenchijin and Ryoma Den) and I was immediately hooked : the acting, the scenery, the period reconstruction, epic stories etc...

My only problem is with the great (huge) number of characters: I have a good memory but I find it quite difficult to remember all the names (when a character reappears after ten minutes that he was off the screen I already forgot his name), who is what , who is the elder brother and of whom, who is related to whom, who is against or with whom... I am tempted to build a genealogy tree on a piece of paper but it seems a bit exaggerated.

Am I the only one who have this difficulty with Taiga Dramas, should I go for a medical memory checkup?

Merging with the What Dramas Are You Currently Watching thread.

just finished Nodame Cantabile :woot:

Finished JIN. An enjoyable ride for the most part (barring a few moments of emotional manipulation -- yes yes I get it, firemen are just as important as doctors. sheesh), with lots of truly memorable characters (Ryomaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!! *fangirls* :dancing: But dayum, I can't believe it's the same actor who played Kimura's dullard onichan in LOVE GENERATION. What gives? :headscratch:).

I just feel so bamboozled by the ending. :usuck: Gee whiz. Now my last image of the drama is of that blasted fetus whose origin, identity and purport we'll never know. Oh, and I guess we'll never know who Mr. Bandage is, either. (Haha was it just me who screamed "The English Patient!!!" every time Mr. Bandage was shown?) Bottom line: You suck, TBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :banghead:

I'm trying to watch "Massugu na Otoko" but lead characters hair style really annoys me (yeah i'm shallow). It looks like a chickens head, and guy is tall so it looks weird with all suit and businessman thing. :shakehead:

Kyoko Fukada is lovely though.

That's why we're expecting a second season or movie, to answer the questions. :mrgreen:

Watched first episode of Team Batista 2. It felt slow and some of the acting felt forced and awkward. I am not going to continue with this.
