JDrama TV Ratings

I know this was posted awhile ago. I was always under the impression that they didn't cancel any dramas.

So, I was wondering if:

1) They just didn't show the last ep(s). This would seem to be a suboptimal solution as it would irritate the fans that did stick with the series and kill any potential DVD sales. I mean, if they stopped Dragonzakura at Ep 9, not only would fans be pissed, but no one would really consider buying the DVDs if they couldn't see if any of the students made it to Todai. Of course, they could just put the unaired episodes on the DVD, but then they might as well have aired them if they were already finished.

2) They rewrote and/or refilmed the last ep(s) so that the drama had a conclusion, just a bit rushed perhaps. This would seem to be a better solution, but certainly more time consuming and potentially more expensive for the producers. Perhaps they hadn't filmed the last episode(s) yet, in which case, it could have saved them some money just filming 9 episodes instead of 10 or 11.

Thanks in advance.

I guess it was the latter since I didn't watch both dramas. In the case of Regatta, it was originally scheduled to run for 10 episodes, but persistently low ratings led to the decision to cancel it after 9 episodes. Due to this, it was said that the pace of development in ep9, was absurd.

The old story: Dramas liked by critics aren't necessarily ratings winners... And vice versa. :sweat:

And doesn't anyone post Kansai's rating anymore? I heard that Karei-Naru is averaging around 29% in Kansai.

Well Kansai ratings are posted on DramaWiki http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Karei-naru_Ichizoku

but I don't know where else to find the ratings

Erai Tokoro ni Totsuide Shimatta!
