[Discussion] Erai Tokoro ni Totsuide Shimatta!

Just watched the first episode. Really liking this comedy, traditional Japan and modern Japan together xD Rather funny to see the actor of the father, who once played a mean old yakuza boss not even being able to say anything but "hm".

I haven't watched it yet.........but I think it's cute that Nakama Yukie was paired up with Tanihara Shosuke again. pinch

I'll have to start clearing my HDD for this season's dramas which is pretty ironic considering I still have tons to download from last season's jdramas~ Sad

It's kind of funny, but acting is too fakey... I don't really like Nakama Yukie comedies. I think she's better in a more serious role.

But is it just me, or is she wearing Kimono a LOT lately? Laugh

I managed to see the first 15 mins and don't think it's gonna be an impressive drama as much as I like the fact that Tanihara Shosuke's in it. Somehow it reminds me quite a bit of Hanayome wa Yakudhoshi.

I watched the 1st episode and like it so far. I don't think the acting is 'fakey' if you're used to watching American sitcoms; this is a comedy after all. The comedic timing is very good and Keiko Mazusaka's great. She is not your typically mother-in-law in that she has good intentions but managed to misunderstood Yukie Nakama and screw things up which led to a lot of hilarious moments. Yukie Nakama is back in her element; I think she is a far better actress in comedies than in serious dramas. I don't like her acting in Tokyo Wankei and especially in Koumyou ga tsuji (she did ok in Shinobi), but she really shines in the Trick and the Gokusen series.

AWH! It was really funny- and Yukie is gorgeous- especially dressed as a bride. Wub

its like watching a married Yankumi!! Yukie should be given better scripts, if she's going to be typecasted in roles like this.
