		But drama is expensive, it takes a long time to produce and the failures bring huge disappointment and, sometimes, humiliation.
		The television series, also borrowed from radio (and the cinema), is an equally durable form that has shaped the schedules for many years.

	Sekai no chuushin de, ai wo sakebu [世界の中心で、愛をさけぶ] :: jdorama.com
		A beautiful style of directing from the drama, which is filmed from the view of a present 34 yr old Matsumoto Sakutaro reminiscing on his past and the loss of his one true love in high school, Hirose Aki, to leukamia in 1987.
		I think the successful element is the time factor; the drama switches from present to past throughout and that provides the audience a deeper relation to the feelings of the guy.
		Aki's character and developement was much better in the tv drama, her interpretation in afterlife, life and death at the end, felt encouraging.

		So far as we can tell, everything he's created for TV has failed -- except, of course, the interesting pregnancy story line on ABC's "Alias" -- but now Ben Affleck is "in talks" to write a new drama series about a second American Revolution.
		Affleck was co-creator of ABC's drama-cum-reality series "Push, Nevada," in which a viewer could win more than a million dollars by watching each episode and collecting clues to a mystery.
		Affleck is also one of the partners on the let's-make-a-low-budget-flick reality series "Project Greenlight," which used to run on HBO until even that network couldn't pretend it was working.

		Creating a TV series based on an ongoing war which the world is divided on both politically and morally, and where casualties are increasing on a daily basis somewhat...well, wrong?
		I'm not saying Bocho can make the series without being political (I'm reminded of the old Spielberg adage that "every war movie is antiwar"), but I'm sure it's within his reach to make an interesting and tasteful series about the war in Iraq.
		I have every bit of respect for the soldiers living and dying in Iraq, and from what I can understand, their story is what the series will be about, and that's definitely an interesting and important story to tell.
