Channeru wa sono mama!

Stay Tuned is a laughter riot from the get go. It's a show about the travails of Hanako Yukimaru, an eccentric, clumsy woman who applies to a channel for the role of a screenwriter, only to find herself accidentally interviews for (and somehow, selected for) a job in the reporting department! The rest of the show follows how Yukimaru's behavior forces everyone to be on their toes at all times, often having to cover up for her mistakes, while also at times showcasing her eccentricity, coming up with ideas that others wouldn't have even thought of.

I did not have much of an expectation before I began watching the show, but let me tell you, I was pleasantly surprised. This show's a home run. Combined with great acting, a good plot, and a short episode run of just 5 episodes, its definitely something everyone must watch! 10/10

Watch this. That woman is genius. And I think it's all her. Because with same script, one who would be even tiny little bit self-conscious would have ruined it. Only reason for giving 9 and not 10 is they made just 5 episodes and no second season.

So far the best Japanese show I saw on Netflix! Midnight diner would be close second. The actors did a great job, especially the main actress, and the news director. Very goofy and funny and at the end of series turned out be quite moving too. Re watched it 3 times already(mainly because Im learning Japanese but re watching was not a chore at all, I keep noticing new details each time). I hope they're going to release a second season!

Stay tuned! is really masterpiece which I can recommend to everybody who likes good acting and goos script. Same time very funny and touching! World needs more this kind of tv-series. You really can see that the actors had fun making this! I cant get enough of this treasure

5/5 you wont be disapointed

I have to say I came close to turning off after the first ten minutes or so. I'm not a big fan of the Japanese over-the-top acting style. But I have to say I'm happy I kept watching.

It's essentially a manga, and it wasn't until afterwards that I found out that it was indeed based on one, although there are plenty of clues in the show (the acting style, the framing, the use of graphics etc.) The story is kind of silly and the acting is wildly exaggerated. But if you take it for what it is it's very enjoyable.

The main character Yukimaru, played by Kyôko Yoshine, is like a shot of adrenaline pumped straight into the heart. It's impossible to watch her and not smile. Although she would make an absolutely horrible colleague in real life...

It's not often I want to see a second season, but in the case of this show I wouldn't mind that one bit. Can't wait to see what Yukimaru and her colleagues get up to next.
