Winter 2009 Drama Season
So, I’ve had a few commitments lately and haven’t had the time to blog, apologies.
Happy New Year everyone!
And onto the dramas,
At first glance, the lineup looks interesting, with a medical mystery [Voice] in the Monday 9 timeslot instead of a soppy romance. Interesting, no? Change of tactic by FujiTV after the last two romance dramas [Taiyo to Umi, Innocent Love] failed to produce high ratings? Maybe…
Voice: ヴォイス
Begins: 2009-Jan-12
Stars: Eita, Ikuta Toma [yeah, they had to throw in a Johnny's...]
But then, of course, the romance appears in the Tuesday 9 slot with Mei-chan no Shituji and like a stupid fangirl, I’m jumping the bandwagon before I’ve even seen the previews…
So, I’m clearly going to watch this…
[But, come on, Mizushima Hiro [HKJ], Sato Takeru [Bloody Monday] and Eikura Nana [Proposal Daisakusen]…]
Mei-chan no Shituji: メイちゃんの執事
Begins: 2009-Jan-13
Stars: Well, you know…

Triangle catches my eye next. No, there are no particular male idols to help move along the storyline here, but this one may only need it’s storyline…
Triangle: トライアングル
Begins: 2009-Jan-06
And last but not least, Love Shuffle. Tamaki Hiroshi and Matsuda Shota are a welcome addition to Karina and DAIGO however, for some reason, I have this strange sinking feeling about this drama. It looks like another over hyped drama which could end up like Innocent Love. Huge hype- huge fail…
Maybe…

What to watch? Well, as usual it’s up to you….
