Hahaha, that was a good one, AD! :rofl:

On topic: First episode of Omiya-san. Seems like a typical detective drama, but I guess I'll try to watch it, if not just to edit out commercials.

Just started digging into Bara no nai Hanaya. I like what I see so far. Perfect late night dorama for me.

Hey shari, do you draw these yourself? They're hilarious, and the artist definitely captures the likeness. :rofl:

On Topic: IWGP epi 3.

God, I've finished like one drama a day since I've been sick. I thought I watched too many before!

Now I'm on Erai Tokoro ni Totsuide Shimatta ep 2. It's supposed to be a comedy but moreso than laughing I find myself feeling bad for the main character and wanting her to dump her dolt of a husband.

Despite being smashed by the flu, I'm still watching...

Gift...

Dare Yori mo Mama wo Aisu...

From the Heart...

Ganbatte Ikimasshoi...

Watched the 8th episode of Hotaru. I'm planning to finish this thing up tonight! :D

It would take a lot more than that, A.D. :hehe: :dielaughing:

Just finished BEach Boys for the third time!! THrilled to see a better version with no static! THe first time mye copy was so poor it was only viewable on my laptop. BF really enjoyed it too.
We started on the first ep of Merry Christmas In Summer .
Also finished Wonder Life in just two days. Strong plot line with good actors, Sorimachi was well cast as a washed up Baseball star. The kids were charming. We both loved it. :applaud: :applaud:

Bara No Nai Hana Ya - Epi 3

I absolutely love it!!!

Yuko's back!!! That's really all that matters!

Finished Hotaru no Hikari and I really liked it a lot. I'd give it an 8 of 10. Or maybe a 9. I haven't really decided yet.

And I watched the first 2 episodes of Bara no nai Hanaya and it's ok so far. I wanted to watch the next one, but I figured I should pace myself since there's going to be a long wait till the next time I can watch this drama. :sweat:

I'll probably finish Hotaru no Hikari

http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Hotaru_no_Hikari

tomorrow, and I'm having a lot more fun with it than I thought I would.

Ayase Haruka might be the most adorable dork I've ever seen. And her scenes with Fujiki Naohito just work.

For me... so far... everything about this show works.

But I can't say as much about Galileo.

http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Galileo

First things first... Shibasaki Kou is doing a great job in this show.

For quite a while now, Shibasaki has been "the great stone face" to me. So afraid that she'd do something that would make her look silly, she's done everything in dead pan for years.

But suddenly, in this show, she's loosened up, and I think she did a great job.

That said... Fukuyama Masaharu pretty much let the air out of this show for me.

The Holmes character, in a Holmes and Watson style show, is supposed to be odd, in some way. Not just... dull.

I know, the show got big ratings, and he won some awards. But Fukuyama's Galileo might be the flatest and most boring eccentric genius I've ever seen on the screen.

Thanks!!

I'm really enjoying From the Heart...Tomosaka Rie is giving one of those rare performances where you forget you're watching an actor and start believing this person actually has this medical condition...

I gave it a 9 1/2. After I got used to Ayase as a nerd, she once again proved that she can tackle pretty much any role and make it her own. Delightful and I went back to the through and saw it for a second time.

:bow:

Halfway through the last episode of Anego and I've got that terrible empty feeling you get when a loved one takes off at an airport for good.
:shamefulcry:
I don't want it to end.... I need more Shinohara Ryoko in similiar roles to Anego and Haken. :metaldevil:

Anime Dad wrote:Churasan ep 2. The eps are short enough to watch at work during lunchtime :victory:

I hope you get to watch some Churasan on a regular TV screen. Computer monitors just don't allow you to see the colors and detail that is so much part of the charm of Churasan. :grumble:

I thought this was her best role and I really respected her as an actress when I saw this. I love the interaction between her and the doctor. Too cute. :D

I'm leaning towards a 9, myself. I thought Ayase played that role really well and I never knew what diversity she had until I saw Hotaru. In the few dramas I've seen her in, her roles were on the serious side. Or maybe it's because of the dramas she acted in.

On topic: I watched the last 2 episodes of Aibou 3 and they were actually better than I thought they'd be. I think I should start watching more of the Aibou series.

O! A lot of fans of Hotaru! I thought it could have been better. The first set of episodes were rather boring, and I found I only really got to enjoy the show around episode 7.

On Topic: IWGP epi 4. Again, loving the show, but I find I can only watch one epi a day... :sweat:

Jiko Keisatsu, Episode 1... This drama's just full of funny, kooky characters. :victory:
