Actually, Southern. I'm guessing they'll be airing it there, hm?

Either is still airing, or has completed airing. I lost track.

Either way I guess I'll just have to find the vcd, dvd, download or what not of it. I really want to watch it. :nut:

In 1979 Finnish tv showed a Japanese police drama series, about the staff of a police station, and i'd like to know what it was. Apparently it was some well known dorama,otherwise it would have never ended up in Finland, where Japanese shows were totally unseen at the time.My guess is that it was broadcast in other Western countries as well.
Could you people make any guesses, or at least suggest helpful links about old dorama?? Thank you.

Wow that's a long time ago :) The database on this site only goes back to the early 80s. Which is to say, I don't know the answer, but maybe this book would help:
The Dorama Encyclopedia : A Guide to Japanese TV Drama Since 1953. You might ask your library if they have it or can get it. Good luck.

P.S. You are Finnish? I love the band Varttina! :)

EDIT:
I did a little looking around. There was a well-known Japanese TV show from 1979 called "Tantei Monogatari" (Detective Story), starring Matsuda Yusaku. So that is a possibility. Here are some links to see if they jog your memory.

I think it sounds like Joou no Kyoushitsu.

I forgot the title, but it's about a girl and a guy(well, duh), but the guy got hit by a car, then his soul possesed the driver's body and then he tries to get together with the girl. I don't know the name of the actors/actresses, but I remember seeing it back in 1995, or maybe earlier.

Edit: I'm looking for a link to the drama, I just want to know the title.

Hi! I'm new to this forum and I don't know where I should post an introduction...so I'll start straight away with a question (promise when I find the intros forum I'll post something there...)

I remember that back in 2003, when I was living in Osaka, there was a drama at 12.30-13.00 on (I think) Kansai TV (but it might have been NHK, or FujiTv, I'm not totally positive) about a girl in a wheelchair that goes on dancing...

As it was the first drama I ever watched, I've been trying to find it... but it seems to have disappeared from the world! I remember the title was something like "dancingu raifu" (Dancing life)...

Has anybody ever heard of it?

thanks!

Hi Cornelius, welcome to the forums. :)

There's a newbie introduction thread located in the General Discussion forum if you're looking for it...

Um, there's also a thread here to get help identifying a drama here: http://jdorama.com/viewtopic.5412.htm... You might wanna post your inquiry there.

I'm going to lock this post and merge it into that thread in 24-48 hours if you haven't made your inquiry by then. :)

Here you go: http://www.tbs.co.jp/ainogekijyo/dancing-life/

It's amazing what you can find if you can guess the correct katakana characters and put it into Yahoo Japan. :D

And in case you're wondering, I have not seen it available anywhere.
