What dramas are you currently watching?

But I'm enjoying it now. Something about the third epi clicked with me. I can't say I'm thoroughly into it, but at least now I can see some promise.

That's exactly what happened to me! The first couple episodes I'm thinking, "Where is this going?" But once I got a feel for it, I was along for the ride. :dancing: [/list:u]

Actually the word "exploitative" is more telling.

I think I won't watch Episode 9 at all, save for the carry over from Episode 8... The last half will be like what we've seen in the first two episodes: Excess. :shakehead: :sweat:

just watched first 3 eps of Change with Kimura Takuya....reminds me somewhat of souri to yobanaide but seems quite interesting

also bears remarkable similarities to the US primaries and in particular, a certain senator obama, hehe

Aibou 3 and 4 last night, though I can't remember which episodes.

Though Sae wouldn't be using a cell phone. :beaten:

I've been plowing through so many mediocre shows lately I figured I had to take drastic measures. So I pulled out Second Chance and started it last night.

Even saddled with child actors, I figure you can't go wrong with a Misako Tanaka comedy.

Actually, she did quite a bit - text messaging :mrgreen: [/list:u] On topic: Next on the agenda is Saito San [/list:u]

True.

But in that pic, she has the phone to her ear... Unless that's a new way of texting that I was unaware of. :beaten:

It's true, she did do a bunch of texting.. but I feel silly for not noticing that she had the handset to her ears..

I got started on Unfair a little while ago and now I can't stop.
I don't know why I never watched it before! So good!

Oh, I've also been keeping up with Zettai Kareshi.
It's really cute, a little different from the manga.
But that's ok. Mokomichi makes up for it. :hehe: :mrgreen:

I finished Kimi ga Oshiete Kureta Koto. It was very good. Thanks, cori. Now, what do I watch next? I'm actually thinking of a Taiwanese drama. I dunno.

I'm in the middle of "Liar game" :nut: It's great!

Ah, which series? I'm considering going with series 2 for my next drama. :victory:

STILL waiting for the subs for the special. But the subber has returned from wherever he was and promised to finish it... eventually. It's a great show though!

OT: Koshonin Ep. 3 & 4. Another good police drama :victory: Except I noticed I spelled it "Konoshin" when I authored it to DVD :banghead:

Time to re-author. :sweat:

I'm watching the first series.

It's really hit and miss with me. Some episodes are grand, and others I get bored... :sweat:

Yay, glad you liked it. :)

On topic: Following Wynter's lead and shin2's recommendation, I started on Sweet Home. I'm only on the first episode, so it seems ok so far. Only thing I can see that would irritate me is that Fukaura Kanako is in it. :usuck: (She was so easy to hate in Watashi no Aozora that I still dislike her.)
