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....

well, if i really like it then i can finish everything on a saturday afternoon. if i don't really like it then i'll probably only watch it when i have nothing else to do. if not then stop completely?

[Xianyang]

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.

[cxlgirl]

if the drama i really like and i am non school ,i will finish it in 2~3days.but if i have classes,i am so slow,about 1 month .and sometimes i will watch my fav drama many times until i remember every details in the drama~~

[Hiyo-Chan]

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

[jindo]

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.

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~ ^^

[ScrappedShinigami]

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
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.

As long as I want

[eeyore]

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

[Mshinobu]

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!!

i just finished Kekkon Dekinai Otoko in one night.......wuaaaaahhhhh.....nemui....

[Saito_Hajime]

Never finished a jdorama in one sitting. I am infected with the dochira syndrome, I'm sure you guys know what I mean.

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

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 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^^
