Wow, really?? No other interests?

It's a big world out there, lots to learn, lots to see, lots to do.

I hope most of you realise that the whole hoopla surrounding SOPA/PIPA/ACTA, whilst drafted under the guise of copyright protection, has absolutely nothing to do with enforcing intellectual property. ... but rather with freedom of opinion, right? But copyright protection will be a alongside aspect ...

This series has all the hallmarks of everything I despise in a jdrama. Storylines are weak and very predictable, does get over the top stupid at times. It's a screwball comedy so acting obviously isn't going to be anything to savour over, although didn't think the acting was as bad as anything in Li...

What is the typical budget for a Japanese drama series? How much of it goes on the writers? Have been watching Breaking Bad recently and keep thinking, is it possible for a show of that quality to be produced on Japanese TV? Not necessarily a big budget production like Breaking Bad but something irr...

Just started series 1 with some friends and a big bottle of single malt. After a lot of duds, must say I'm enjoying this quite a bit, or maybe it's the alcohol talking...

Jesus, this drama suuuuuuuuuuuuuuucked!

As the episodes progressed, just kept asking myself why, why, why??

God, I love this woman! Fell hard for her in Last Christmas.

Currently reading: Matter by Iain M Banks.

Has anyone read any of the 'A Song of Ice and Fire' series by George R. R. Martin?

so says my boyfriend.

A short while ago, I made him watch a film, 'Tada, kimi wo aishiteru', he ended up crying, the little girl!

If you look like a pretty boy celebrity with a funky hairdo, sure, go ahead, you can also say hi to that vagina you're growing.

In general, for me, guys with earrings, a big no no.

Now, tattoos on the other hand.............

You poor girl!

Liar Game, for me, was a very difficult show to watch (atrocious acting and unimaginative, predictable plotlines whatnot). I sincerely applaud the people that did like it enough for it to spawn another season and a movie, they have infinitely more patience than me. OK, was the tricks they did the l...

Typed too much than I intended.. it's hard to explain myself sorry (and I really hope this thread doesn't get shut down because I am interested in people's thoughts of overrated shows... I'm watching Liar game and some people said it's overrated on here... some say it's good... and I wanna check it...

Just remember who does the rating, if the people of Japan like it and it is rated high and you slam it, are you not indirectly slamming the Japanese? The US's top show is NCIS if a bunch of Europeans and Asians were slaming it and saying the show is bad, is not that a slam on the US? Think about it...

At the very least none of you seem to be 'harping' on about which celebrities are ok. Well, there was that one doofus on page 4.

Mmm, I would have to include pretty much everything that stars those pretty boy, bubblegum pop boyband/singers, dramas that are tailor made for fangirls.

I watched Atami no Sousakan a few days ago, have to say I really enjoyed this one. Didn't know anything about it before viewing, ended up being a very pleasant surprise. Made a refreshing change from a lot of the mediocrity out there.
