I probably will make one just for the hell of it to make it easier for me and maybe I'll post it on my site or LJ. And maybe here if it was allowed.

If what was allowed? A list of dramas by genres?

Yeah, i'm guessing so. Would make life a lot easier when doing recommendations :)

If someone puts it together, I can make it a sticky. Why wouldn't it be allowed. :headscratch:

I just assumed that it would be merged with this recommendations thread.

OHHHHHHH! LOL! Well, I'm not getting things today.

I could just edit the first post of this thread and stick it there?

Post-ice cream/tea brain freeze. :beaten:

Or maybe post-Thanksgiving dinner brain freeze... Those endorphins. :mrgreen:

The best Taiga I have watched was Aoi--Tokugawa Sandai from 2000. The first couple of episodes overwhelm you with names, places, and dates, but if you persevere, it will all become clear. The prologues to each episode are extremely clever and extremely informative, and the acting and script are of a quality not even remotely seen in dorama these days. And the best part is this was made before NHK's unconscionable decision to flood its Taiga with execrable fanboy and fangirl favorites.

Just want to say that this series is slowly being released again by Nanashi No Gonbey. It is well seeded at the moment. Thanks shin2 for the recommendation.

I need more romantic comedy suggestions. Dekichatta Kekkon is not going to work out because one episode's sound and pic doesn't match up and I don't want to give it to someone as a gift. Preferably nothing too silly, no old people as the main characters, and no teenage stuff, please.

Renai Kekkon no Hosoku

How about Dekichatta Kekkon? http://jdorama.com/drama.567.htm Sonny Chiba as the irate father is worth it all by himself.

Actually, I did have the reason why I didn't want to give this drama to someone as a gift a couple of posts above. :sweat:

Gomen, Boku wa baka yaro. :bonk: I was thinking you were talking about Kekkon Dekinai[/list:u]

I guess that could be a maybe. I wasn't overly fond of it though. :sweat:
