between Top Caster and Buso no Hitomi ni, those two can be the top j-dramas of the season...possibly.

still on Kimi wa petto j-drama. :bonk:

Not sure on ratings wise, but storywise, my bets are with Kurosagi & Gal Circle. The former because of the somewhat unique storyline concerning a swindler who swindles swindler - especially if you haven't read the manga. The latter because of the over the top comedic potential that the series can take (I'm hoping the directors will capitalize on this in later eps. ). Hopefully the show won't be another GTO clone but with cowboys instead of teacher.

As for Busu, Top Caster, & Attention Please well from what I saw on fast forward kind of standard comedy.

very true....

personally, i would like to see Gal Circle take it in top honors, and maybe Teru Teru Ashita, for it's mystery and creativity...but ratings-wise, looks like it is Top Caster and Kurosagi, and maybe Buso no Hitomi ni, that are top three.

yeah, the plot is incredibly average and uncompelling. again aside from the abe hiroshi and yuko takeuchi little is added by the supporting cast members. the plot is too dry.

They lack charisma too. I don't know if Nishijima Hidetoshi is a bad actor, but in this he sucks big time IMHO. Even Kyoko Fukada is ashamed of his performance. :beaten:

:hehe:

haha....i couldn't agree with you more....that guy was a total "wallflower," he was there but you hardly noticed him. even kyoko fukada elicits more of an emotional response.

He looked so bored and like he didn't give a sh*t about anything. :hehe:

They could've cut the radio station from the script and the story wouldn't have change at all.

i think in one of the scenes he farted and walked away quitely so that nobody would notice him.

Must be why he was always on his bike.

that is kind of late...it should be on at 8pm instead.
maybe that is the reason for the lower ratings for Teru Teru.

yea, that is late, and it would finish by 12am or later... :beaten:

i think 8 or 9pm would be a better time slot for j-drama, and could possibly help ratings.
