Hi there!

Realized that there's quite a number of J-dramas that we can catch on TV.
Here's a list of what I know:

-Akimahende, Every Sun, 11.00pm, channel 8
-Brand (replaced by shomuni part 1 on wed), Every Mon-Fri, 2.30pm, channel 8
-Oshin (in Mandarin only), Every Wed-Fri, 3.30pm, channel U
-Artificial Beauty, Every Thur, 10.30pm, channel 8
-My husband (Muko Dono?), Every Thur, 11.30pm, channel 8
-Roshinante, Every Fri, 1.45am, channel U
-Summer Snow, Every Sat, 10.00am, channel U
-Love Complex, Every Sat, 12.00pm, channel U
-Narita Divorce, Every Sat, 2.30pm, channel 8

For varieties, all I know is:
-Japan Hour, Every Sun, 8.00am, 12.00pm, 7.30pm

If anyone knows any more Japanese programs, esp for SCV or the Malaysian channels, pls add on! ;)

well.. i thought of more...

channel 54 TVBS Asia..: AIUEO (wierd times can check programme guide - tells about latest album releases and oshare stuff in japan..) | another affiliated programme : Popjapan.tv (at wierd times too.. cannot seem to remeber.. but had featured artists. actually i watch for the djs.. they might be fake but at least they have dress sense..

channel 49 Asia Plus..: huang zijiao's love love japan.. about album and sngle releases but mainly because huang zijiao is a collector.. the show talks about the things one can collect or japanese like to collect like LV bags or little toys stuff..

channel 51 MTV Asia..: tokyo dai nin ki.. 5566's tony hosts this show.. also with album and single releaes.. not really that great.. but can learn jap.. not that i think is very useful either.. because tony has a wierd accent..

waah!!! Lucky you guys! I wish I lived in Singapore!
All they show is crappy American soaps and domestic over here :angry:
I feel sad for it, but thanks to the internet I'm able to get subbed jdramas :hehe:
I spend more time on the comp than TV! watching jdramas, Japanese and Korean movies and surfing! and sometimes online gaming too. Oh yeah! Long live the internet!!!
I watch only tv news and football on tv. that's all

i like [SUMIRE!] uchida yuki.. she's really very pretty and the show has my fave artistes such as her, ninomiya kazunari suzuki an and shunta miyagi.. therefore i like it.. even though the peoplein the show seem to be having troubles everyday.. wat can i say.. it's a dorama..

Realized that I missed out another drama:
Shinjuku Rescue Team, last episode, Mon, 12.45am (which is about 2 hrs from now!)
Wonder which drama will be repeated after this? :rolleyes:

Among the dramas currently being broadcast, which is your favourite?
(Actually I realised alot of people mention Muko Duno... ...I like it too! :mrgreen: )
But frankly, I prefer Narita Divorce, cos it's a comedy with lots of famous actors/actresses...
and most importantly, it's fresh as I havn't seen it before! ;)

I don't really like narita divorce. I watched it before on ch50. Is not as funny as Mukodono, and nagase is definetly better looking than Kusanagi Tsuyoshi... :hehe:

Seems that there will be a series of horror shows lined up in July, every Wed, 10.45pm at channel 8.

Starting off is "Dark Waters", followed by "Another Heaven".
Sadly, I dun know the next 2 (wonder if it's also Japanese horror or not?)
:sweat:
