TV on a rainy day…
Monday, April, 08, 2013
Hello everyone! ?Anand here as usual. ?Definitely looks like hanami season is over in Yokohama. ?Hope you managed to get a good party in. ?The plus side is that it is going to warm up soon enough. ?I had wanted to meet my friends on Saturday, but it was way too rainy. But thanks to a friend at work I found out something to do. ?She turned me on to a website called hulu, where you can watch tv shows or movies over the internet, as long as you pay a monthly fee. ?I had originally subscribed because I wanted to watch Columbo. ?I love old detective dramas, and Columbo is definitely my favorite. ? See I thought hulu was just a way to watch American television and movies.
But to my surprise I was wrong! ?I discovered that there are a lot of Japanese television shows as well! ?Recently I have started watching Ashita no Joe. ?I really can’t understand what anyone is saying because the sound quality is so bad and the Japanese is so strange, but I can still understand the story.
But so far my favorite drama is Tantei Monogatari. ?It’s this old 80’s detective drama starring Yuusaku Matsuda. ?It’s a little hard to follow the story, but it’s pretty funny and simple enough to get the basic idea. ?But what is best about it is that one of the characters is a foreign woman, so every so often there is at least some English ?for me to listen to.
If you have the time, check out hulu.jp. ?You might find something you like, in English or in Japanese!
