New dramas are starting and it's time to start seeing what's good and what's not. Feel free to give your input on what you've seen.

毒<ポイズン> - Similar to 「VISION 殺しが見える女」 from the Summer 2012 season, and judging from the intro, 毒 is clearly made by the same people. As such it's somewhat campy but in an endearing way that keeps bringing you back. In the show there exists a poison distributed by some mysterious man who gives it to people who are struggling with conflicting events. The poison is untraceable and kills exactly 24 hours after being ingested. I'm going to keep watching this one and the episodes are nice and short at 30 minutes.

原宿ネストカフェ - Less of a drama and more of a talk show, it introduces a celebrity who wants to meet with someone. In the first episode, Yamada Yu meets the author of one of her favorite mangas. Then they talk about their favorite scenes and various other mangas. I assume the topic will vary depending on the guest. It's really good for listening as these two people just sit there and talk rather straight-forward. As you might figure by the title, it takes place at a NesCafe in 原宿. This show seems full of shameless advertising, but if you don't mind it seems like it'll be nice to watch on occasion.
