Official Jdoramas Ratings Thread

[Guest lilgzl]

wow..thank for this thread! great idea!

I'm a bit surprised with Hotelier's rating??? I thought it would do at least above 15%??

mmm...interesting.........

[pocca]

^ yeh i know and it's in a great timeslot too

バンビ～ノ！ 16.6 // 15.0

[Guest ponkie]

Everyone dropped, except for LIAR GAME; That's pretty cool.

Sexy Voice and Robo's ratings are getting dangerously low. Rating is not everything, but I hope it does better. I actually think it gets better each episode.

[elizabeth]

Proposal Daisakusen's ratings are not that bad. It's actually good. I still need to d/l the first episode.

[Guest crazyMuka]

I personally think the dramas this season are all pretty fun and interesting, more so than the previous seasons; but the down point is that they are dominated with teen idols and young actors who have not really established themselves, so no wonder the ratings are pretty low for the majority of them. I actually never judge a drama based on the ratings alone because those are just numbers, well, unless some dramas have consistently low or high ratings all throughout. This spring is a great season for dramas as I found myself keeping up with pretty much all of them though .

I agree. I won't put too much into ratings since some good dramas do get overlooked because they are too grim and depressing or cater to a specific target audience. Also, the ratings are solely for the Kanto region and omits Kansai and other parts of Japan, so it's best to just use it as a gauge in deciding whether to watch a drama or not.

The downward trend is a bit appalling but it might have to do with the quality of the adaptations and the casting choices since there are many young actors and actresses. Hotelier and Kodoku no Kake have fallen below 10% now.

omg hotelier ratings are really bad considering its timeslot too .....and fufudo the only one taht went up~

I've got to say this though, lately, the ratings for most Jdramas are just very low. This season there's already 5 dramas falling under 10% even just at the 2nd episode, that's pretty alarming I think. It's true that I don't usually care for the numbers, but with that many bad rating dramas, one usually questions what the heck is going on. You might be right about the casting choices, but still... didn't Gokusen 2 have all those young actors and it still got sky-rocket ratings? I hope those shows won't get canceled or cut short because of the ratings, that would totally suck .

[pocca]

^^ from waht i know like since i have few doramas for years now, even though they have bad ratings i never see that they cut or cancel dramas episodes ...i think kdramas does alot of that.

Yeah it is terribly appalling, and if they continue toeing the 10% line, many will probably have shorter runs than usual. I agree that this really prompts one to question why because it is quite unprecedented. Perhaps audience fatigue? There are a substantial number of adaptations and sequels this season. The sequels seem to be faring slightly better, probably attributable to loyal audience following? It's hard to say. Gokusen 2 had Nakama Yukie, currently one of the top five most popular actresses in the scene, that plus the presence of the young actors from JE undoubtedly sealed the drama's popularity although I hear that Gokusen 2 was merely a rehash of Gokusen.

^^ from waht i know like since i have few doramas for years now, even though they have bad ratings i never see that they cut or cancel dramas episodes ...i think kdramas does alot of that.

Well there have been Japanese dramas that suffered cancellations but not many. The recent ones were Shimokita Sundays and Regatta which ended their runs earlier than expected. We won't know whether they'll get cut short until later in the season but if any dramas dip near 5% for quite a few episodes, I think that might happen.

[pocca]

^^ oh really, well i don't pay attention to all the dramas, so i wouldn't know...yeh i do remember that regatta did have super bad ratings that season...
