Over Time episode 4. I know it's fictitious, but somehow, the dialogues and situations sometimes just felt a little off or made-up...

I was planning on going back to watching LxIxVxE last night, but I accidentally started watching Hataraki Man.

http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Hataraki_Man

The show is a light weight. Another -- ain't life rough for the working girl in a man's world -- comedy/drama.

But Miho Kanno is the star. And Michiko Kichise glides about the office as if on a cloud. And Aya Hirayama (Haruka 17) is... well, she's there looking all pretty and and Aya-ish.

And if that wasn't enough to get me interested, Yumiko Shaku shows up as a guest star in the second episode.

Can you say, "a fine piece of broadcast entertainment?"

I just watched the third episode of Shukan Maki Yoko

...and I've got to tell you, that's the first time in a long time that I've found myself laughing out loud in front of a TV screen.

From last week's coming attractions I was under the impression that this was a comedy/horror episode. I was wrong.

It was a comic parody of those awful/wonderful/cheesy Toei & Nikkatsu B-Grade Yakusa movies from the late '60s early '70's. You know; chic is hooked up with the Yakusa boss... gets duped... ends up double crossed and shipped off to prison.

And then she comes back for revenge.

Of course in this one, Abe Sadayo is the gang's main killer.

Freakin' hilarious.

Ahh, completely forgot about this show... Gotta start downlading it when I get home...

Under One Roof 2 episode 1. Oh man, watching this again makes me so ... sad and happy at the same time.

Last Friends, Episode 2.

Yup, no subs.

As if you need any subs to distract you from all that Juri gazing you're doing.

Currently watching: Netflix stuff

Today watched Around 40 ep 1. Kind of a slow start but it looks like it can be interesting in future. We'll see.

Now Last Friends ep 2. Definitely can't wait for subs. Juri continues to impress me.

I just finished watching...

Click on button to reveal/hide spoiler:

Can't really comment much since I don't know what they're saying in most of the dialog... Though it's quite obvious that Sosuke is scum... They'd better get around to explain why he's such a dirtbag or I'm gonna have to go to Japan and kick his sorry little woman-abusing girly ass. Grr, they shouldn't show previews of the following week's episode: it's too much of a spoiler... It was anticlimactic to see Ruka crash her bike, 'cause they showed in last weeks preview.... Stupid.

I think "Juri-gazing" is a new sport.

I thought it was the special version reserved for Emeril audiences (or Elzar, if you prefer) BAM!

Oh.

Aibou/Partners 3, episode 5 (I think). Harada Ryuji plays a ditzy accountant, turned "detective" and he's just aggravating. Aggravating, but still

Also watched the first episode of Aibou 4 and it bored me. Wha? An Aibou episode that's boring?? Hopefully the series picks up later on.

Thank you! Bamwagon = Bambino Wagon.

On Topic: Okay, seriously. Why am I not watching any dramas?! It's been weeks. I think I'll watch Security Police, since Bambino seems to have cursed my track.
