What dramas are you currently watching?

that show was boost....at the time i hadn't seen any of the actors in that show save one woman (ryo, who played the part of yutaka takenouchi's gf in long vacation). it was very funny and delightful. the supporting cast adds a lot of comedy to the show.

hehe, its just so difficult to continue watching dramas like those - those types usually take me months if not years to finish :P

the only other things i'm actively keeping up with at the moment are some of this season's dramas - Busu no Hitomi Koishiteru, AP and Kurosagi

cuz it has no substance and tries to excel on contrived plot devices and comedy...but when the comedy is not that funny it falls apart like a poorly made okonomiyaki

he should become a j-drama critic...he has the longest run that i know of, on people here, unless someone has watched longer...

nah i doubt i have the longest run...it's just that when i first started studying japanese i began to watch japanese tv here and there for practice....but then i stopped watching for several years because school and work became too much and i rarely watched t.v. when i was in college.

dang, i cannot believe i just got into j-drama back in 2004-2005.....

hmmm.. i think i started watching doramas around the mid 90's, thats when i remember I started to notice them on channel 18 on sunday night... dont remember most of them though... but they were all pretty good.
