I think TV programs are very interesting. What's your favorite?

I don't watch the same TV programs regularly because to watch them, I have to be in front of my TV on time every single week! I like American TV series such as HEROS and Glee. So, I rather watch these programs via the internet distribution. It's convenient for me to spend my time. I sometimes make a movie day on weekends by watching these series.

Watching TV series on the internet is really convenient. However, I sometimes loose track of time whenever I watch my favorite TV series.

I understand it well! That's also a reason of making a day for movie marathon. When I started watching a series at night just on my bed, I couldn't stop watching it till 3 am. I had to work I also watched documentary about animals and nature.

I do a TV series marathon during my days off. Sometimes I can finish a whole season in just two days. By the way, what website or service do you use to watch movies and TV series in the internet? Is Netflix or Hulu available in Japan?
#miss

Wow, I have never finished a whole series in two days. You must have your meals while watching! I've heard that there was an event to watch a whole 24 season 1 episodes in 24 hours at a cinema. What a cool idea! As for the services, I use Hulu. I don't think Netflix is available in Japan, and there are other Japanese rental video services, as well.

Yes, you've got that right. I am a couch potato when watching my favorite TV series. The last TV marathon I had was when I finished "Shingeki no Kyojin" in three days. It's a terrible mistake for me though.

I know! After doing such marathon, I feel like I was doing wrong, too! "Shingeki no Kyojin" based on comic series and it made a big hit here in Japan, as well. I don't know much about the details and the story, though. I think that this animation would be looked weird and scary because the characters of Kyojin look like muscles without skin!

I had the same impression as you when I first saw the trailer of the anime. However, you will understand everything once you've watched it. I would like to watch its second season but they haven't started making it yet. Now, I have to look for another interesting show to watch.

Wow, you know more than me about the Japanese anime field. I guess that, in these Japanese animations, the characters speak Japanese and there should be English or other language subtitles. So, these anime are also a good tool of learning Japanese according to my friends. I hope you can learn Japanese through watching your favorite TV programs.
