• What dramas are you currently watching? Drama Discussion · 1 Mar 2009, 06:50 I agree with Ralph. Why is everyone jumping on a soapbox to explain to him what he already knows? Do you guys think you are the only smart people in the world? Wynter, I know you're a teacher, but really...is this the p…
• Churasan Drama Discussion · 1 Nov 2008, 08:29 Anime Dad! I'm so glad you liked Churasan...Ralph must be soooo happy...Churasan is his internal spiritual home, and he wants to share his joy in Eri et. al. He and I disagreed about it a little. Eri was so great as a y…
• 47th NHK Taiga Drama: Atsu-hime Drama Discussion · 23 Jun 2008, 08:58 You know I rarely get involved in all the hubbub on this forum, because it's like a little clique that doesn't really want to let anyone in who doesn't follow the party line, but my husband and I are watching Atsu-hime,…
• What dramas are you currently watching? Drama Discussion · 22 Nov 2007, 22:42 Geezer! Of course for you the word "eccentric" was a compliment! You know, I was talking about Norika in Star No Koi.

• What dramas are you currently watching? Drama Discussion · 10 Sep 2007, 08:56 New York is not a good place to live if you want to see doramas broadcast on TV, but at least I do get to go to the U.S. Open and see the tennis. I just wanted to weigh in on the Takuya Kimura discussion. I agree with R…
• Nisei Week Festival/Little Tokyo/Related General Discussion · 24 Aug 2007, 10:38 Ralph--your parade clip was great. It made me feel as if I were there, and since I've never been to Southern California, that was a pretty good feat. At the Sakura Matsuri in the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, they only have …
• Kekkon Dekinai Otoko Drama Discussion · 27 Jul 2007, 14:39 I forgot to say one thing about supporting characters, after reading the mini-treatise posted by Ralph. I always thought it was obvious that because the dorama format is usually 10, 11, or 12 episodes, a lot of the supp…
• Kekkon Dekinai Otoko Drama Discussion · 27 Jul 2007, 14:15 I am truly fascinated by the discussion of which characters and which actors are important to this drama. I've watched it many times, at first the whole thing through, and then I did what I often do just for fun, I fast…
