JDrama TV Ratings

^ I watched first few episodes, but it didn't interest me too much...

But the ridiculously low ratings is because it was on TV Asahi, which used to be horrible for doramas. Their dorama get better ratings today, but before '01 or '02, it was like under 8% was flop, 10% was good, 12% was big hit for them.

They have shows that can hit mid to high teens now, but their station still have lowest ratings in dorama. Asahi and NTV are the only two stations that regularly get ratings lower than 10%.

my friend told me that yasha is also good, but she just didn't understand why it earned such low rating.

haven't watched kurosagi yet.

you should watch yasha instead of kurosagi. that thing is really not worth watching dear... really...
or maybe byakkotai... but not kurosagi

you should read some of Tu_triky's comments on that dorama :rofl:

I thought HYD would get over 20% :crazy:

it did feel slow and boring at times.....maybe people stopped and rather wait to see what happens in ep 2??

The only almost certain gurantees for over 20 percent ratings these days are Taigas or Takuya dramas....everything else is uncertain.

well tv ratings are an objective statistical measure of what people are watching whether we agree with them or not.....i don't like everything that's highly rated nor do i hate everything that's garnered low ratings...one thing i DO KNOW.

takuya GETS ratings.

the guy is a gurantee of healthy ratings...even his shows don't get the crazy ratings of the past like in the late 90s to around 2000...but his shows still tend to outperform most others.

I think this Thursday's HYD 2 episode 2 will have a bit higher ratings, maybe 2hrs is too long.
