Hi there! Sadly, Japanese Drama are lesser nowadays. Only less one on the Thursday night, usually two, but the second one replace by a hongkong drama, WHY?) And one on the Saturday afternoon. (The heaven's coin) Nothing on Sunday No repeats on Monday nights No repeats on weekdays afternoon For varieties, all we still no is that Channel News Asia is still keeping its Japan Hour. Worst still, the our cable tv also have one or two only. That's not the worst; we can't buy japanese drama in singapore (only can buy online) WHY? Sorry for the bad news!

And that Hong Kong Drama is an old drama yo! And Channel U doesn't show J dorama on Sat mornings anymore.... *sigh* The state of our TV programmes now is Shake Head

Well, look on the bright side... we have a repeat of Red and White Song Fest on Channel U next Tues Wink

There's gonna be Yoisho no Otoko beginning December on cable Ch56. Other than that there's no cheer. I guess the only thing we can hope is that Japanese media entertainment companies start looking international and around Asia rather than focusing on the domestic market...then dorama VCD hunting won't be as hard as it is now.

Just received Telescope from my mailbox today. I saw coming next month is Takuya Kimura's 'Good Luck' and.. um. THat's about all. Nothing to rave about... Something that set me thinking though, there's 1/4 of a page in the mag devoted to upcoming Korean dramas in Singapore. Whereas J doramas got a measly 1/12 of the page. Sad. v_ice

But now it's the Korean rage... I don't get it, Korean dramas are really that nice? Shake Head

I think it's longwinded... Sleeping

Good thing i didnt watch it then Mr Green

I've already long given up the thought of chan 8 producing good shows... I especially hate the long ones, the "big productions". Everyone is talking about holland V... but i knew it was just more or less the same stuff they've been producing all along.

Holland V last epsoide is today. Finally!! but next week is even worst. Sorry to all Christopher Lee and Fann Wong fans first. Why are they always acting together??? I don't understand. One show is enough, i was refering to Legend of the Condor Heroes. I was getting bored see them acting together again.

haha. I used to love them y'know... but when I came to know HK dramas and J doramas, I gave up on watching them. I flinch whenever I go back to watching certain actor's mediocre acting skills on local TV as compared to overseas artistes. v_ice

Condor heroes was the last straw for me... After that and memories of stuff like "golden pillow jin zhen tou" made me give up hope totally

I watched the HK version of Condors before the local production, so when I finally watched our local version, I was like Golden pillow? It was terrible... I didn't finish the series... And I think the usual drama serials are a bit over exaggerated, so I stopped watching channel 8 serials like, centuries ago (ok, I'm exaggerating here too ) Remember the gambling one? Can't remember what's it called Anywayz the first one was good coz the idea was not bad for a local production (when you compare to other serials at that time which were like duh... ) but the following 2 sequels were I was channel surfing the other day and I saw the new drama by Fann about the SARS situation... I was like coz I think she dressed more like a model than a doc... Well, the bottom line is... GIVE US MORE J DORAMA!!!!!!!
