Yamada Tarou Monogatari 2! There was always a little boy-love in the manga between Tarou and Takuya and in the live-action version, Takuya's tiny sadistic side comes out to play; thus, making them both title characters in future fanfiction. Even though I don't see the appeal of these Arashi boys, they do play these character sincerely and it's very funny. The dancing was very unexpected. As for the girl, Takako, hmmm..I don't hate her yet.

Bambino 4-11! Finally finished this up..even though I was tempted not to. The moral of the story is to stay passionate about your work even if you end up looking like an idiot and start crying over every mistake you make.

Bambino 3! Bambi finally stops looking like a total idiot in the kitchen. You kind of feel embarrassed for him. Ah well, in this episode he finishes up his spring break stint at Baccanale.

Emma S2 2! Colin and Erich are adorable little boys. I want that pet squirrel. In this episode, Eleanor, being the sadly persistent woman that she is, invites the Jones family to the Crystal Palace. William politely refuses to succumb to her half-assed charms. Emma continues to go about her business with Hans brooding at her from afar. *swoon* ...ack! naked lady.
Is it bad that I'd rather read Hari Pothead fanfics than watch this?

Bambino 2! I don't think Ban/Bambi acted arrogantly enough to warrant the others' contempt. Or is my lack of enthusiasm because I'm still hoping this is a comedy? Or is it because they are using plain old Barilla pasta (which I like, but don't particularly like served in a restaurant)? In this episode, we get to see that Bambi doesn't wear glittery nail polish...darn! I'll give this another couple episodes, since Matsujun is a likable dork.

Bambino jdrama episode 1! wasn't about a fictional Emeril Lagasse as a young Johnny. I'm a little disappointed it isn't solely a comedy, but there are other factors worth watching. One being the fact that Matsujun is cute and there are other cuties with him...and one cutie who hits on Matsujun/Ban/Bambino. Another good thing is the fact that we get to see Matsujun angst-ridden and pissy. The only bad thing would be a sweaty Matsujun. Not fond of yummy looking food that was made with sweat and tears....I prefer the clean environment of Foodtv. Overall, the show has the clean production that Hanadan had and all the characters look interesting and hot. The manga didn't look half as hot interesting. Episode 1 shows us some rookie-hazing at the restaurant. I look forward to learning all sorts of educational things about Italian food. mmmm...Italian food.

Proposal Daisakusen ~Operation Love~ jdrama episode 1! Yamapi plays a guy who gets a chance to go back in time and change certain things for his first love. The male fairy is a nice touch. I can't say this was remarkable, but it was charming. The development of each change to the past might be interesting to watch. Yamapi's first love looks too old for him though.

These two shows along with Witch Yoo Hee are the dramas I'll be following.
ETA: Decided Proposal Daisakusen was as boring and ill-written as Liar Game and Jodan Janai. ie: No more for me please.
I have no idea how great the manga is, but 'Bambino' will be a live-action drama with MatsuJun as the lead character! The Bambino homepage has some manga pics and stuff. It is about a young man trying to be a top Italian chef in Tokyo. MatsuJun and food!!!!!!
