there are some dramas that I never complete....I'm not exactly the kind to sit through something I don't find interesting....as for those I like, normally I can finish it in one go....in the past, I used to watch one drama in one whole night....now there are fewer dramas that make me have the impulse to do that though...


i am still trying to complete Ganbatte ikimasshoi drama, on ep6 finally, not that its a bad one, i like it too, but it just didn't get me hooked as some other dramas did.... Bonk

Depends on what drama i am watching, if it is good i could finish in 1-2 days but if it is lousy or below average it could take 3 months or more. Or sometimes i would simply give up halfway through the show if it really sucks. Sleeping

A couple of days or so, sometimes not long at all because I easily obsess Sweat so I usually stay up and watch them till like 4, 5 in the morning. I love my dramas Bow

I usually watch the entire show (normally 12eps series) at once. Recent dramas I've watched were:
- Tokyo Love Cinema
- Lunch no Jyou
Awesome series.... but I felt like a zombie after finished watching both titles. bleh

i take about a day to finish if i manage to get all the epis.. of coz it will be slower if i can only get them once a week. But i believe in watching everything in a shot. It's very exhilarating to do that too~ ^^

If a show is really good I find it quite easy to watch it all in one showing (that's the average show 9-12 eps) I couldn't watch a Taiga drama in one showing... but saying that I'm yet to finish a Taiga drama they're so long it's hard to motivate oneself to watch the whole lot Sweat
The first dorama I watched was Hana Yori Dango and I watched that several times through in one sitting!!!

It depends on the drama for me, if it's really sad I can only watch 2-3 episodes a day. Crying out, in the Center of the World wiped me out for a week.
If it's a funny type drama I can get through it in a day.

It's interesting that so many people people (including me) like to watch drama on saturday mornings.

depends
- if it's recent, I have to wait week by week to watch it.
- if it's good, I watch the first episodes on weekday, I keep it for the weekend.
- if it's so so, very slow .. could take weeks
- if it's not good, see no1 and forget it, watch it again when I run out things to watch, but I rather re-watch good drama than spend time on bad drama... :p

YEs i agree with most here

i mean if the drama is really exciting
i can even finish it within a night --> less sleep for me

but nowadays i get them ( from a site ) straight from japan
so its dependent on the release speed

but still if you dun have things to do
possible to watch it at 1 shot

if its really good ( like Antique )
you would watch it again so time is dependent

Cheers!! Victory! Peace!

that dorama is horrible!!! thought they could succeed just by putting up mommy's fave teenagers. One thing that got me hooked from it and maybe you will too: the Daihatsu car add rofl Beaten

on topic:
it takes 2 days for me to finish really good ones (Mukodono, 1litre of tears, KCE, etc.), always with the intention of finishing it in one day but i can't in the end, eventhough i've been poisoning myself with caffeine Beaten coffee-addict

For me, it's also different from Drama to Drama, but I would say, one week.
But that wouldn't mean, that I never watched one in 2 days.
And Sailor Moon Live Action, I also finished in 1 week, and they're many episodes^^��
But I was the most fast with Hana Yori Dango and Summer Snow within a couple of days^^
