Title: Mr. Brain
Status: Aired in 2009, 8 episodes in total.
Summary:
In replacement of CSI's cast, they swapped in some Japanese people and continued from there. No really, this should be the summary. But basically, this features an ex-host (the fact that he used to be a host really isn't all that relevant) who has now entered the Institute of Police Science to develop new techniques to capture future criminals. Only he always gets involve with current murder cases and each episode springs from there.
Commentary:
There will most definitely be another season, I have no doubts about it. But after watching this: Is a brain really ALL that?? DD: I am very skeptical about it. Personally, I only see this drama as mildly entertaining since I used to watch CSI religiously (seriously.) Thoughts aside, I had momentary attacks with the appearances of some familiar faces:
Ep.1: Kimura Takuya with long hair...??!! Not good looking... at all.
Ep.2: Murdered!KANO-SAN (sorry I don't know your real name)!! & (I knew it was you)Gackt!!
Ep.3: Doctor!KAME!!! with megane and a fiancee??
Ep.4: Piano!SATOU TAKERU!!... argh, you make me want to rewatch BM again!!
Ep.6: Crazy!YAMADA (I only remember her name from Trick!)!! with her boring hair style again...
Name: 33pun Tantei (33分探偵)
Status: Aired in 2008, 9 episodes in total.
Summary:
Private detective, Rokuro has a mission to take simple cases (that can be solved in five minutes) and expands them into large complicated ones (that takes exactly 33 minutes to solve, hence the title.)
Commentary:
It is thoroughly entertaining. The set steps these characters go through are hilarious, the explanations and motives are ridiculous. I think this series is great for laughs. But if you don't like to laugh then (what is wrong with you??!) ...you are always welcome to just watch it for its 'valuable' life lessons.
But what happened to half of Kinki Kids?? Domoto Tsuyoshi's face is soooo chubby in here! D:

I heard Brain's good... but my friend said it's just so so. I loved some of the CSI episode (I wonder why they get different directors for different epi D:).
33pun tentei sounds interesting *_* I think I'll watch that. ;D Tsuyoshi's always been chubby, hence he's so cute!
Yeah, Brain really is just a so-so. :D I recommend 33pun more~ But some face shot of Tsuyoshi just makes him really chubby... D:
Well, he's getting old anyway, and his chubbiness' been there since forever XD Ny bf doesn't recommend Brain either, so... 33pun it is!
Yeah, he is aging DD: But 33pun is a definite! :D
