![]() Unlike kick-ass American shows like "Lost," their dramas don't go season after season. They'll almost never build a set, and the rare times they do, it will look like the set from your high school's production of "Carousel." The reason behind this lies in the 3-month cycle that all Japanese dramas follow. If the show is on Fuji TV, you'll see Fuji's offices in just about every drama. Sometimes good writing makes up for the lack of budget, but the fact that they often film them in and around the TV station's office building severely limits the show's creative stretch. Well, I suppose the West steals from the East at times too, but this just pisses me off. Shameless robbery of Western entertainment wallowing in sheer laziness. Flash back to the gaudy 1970s Las Vegas-looking set, and the celebrity guests will comment on whatever top YouTube video was just shown.
