Drama Prime Time Report – 04/15~04/18

[caption id="attachment_294825" align="aligncenter" width="600" caption="'Galileo' (Fuji TV)"][/caption]
A total of 8 new dramas premiered from Monday to Thursday this week.
Fuji TV's Monday drama 'Galileo' (season 2) - starring heartthrob Fukuyama Masaharu and a new heroine played by Yoshitaka Yuriko - attracted the most viewers with a great rating of 22.6%. Many viewers also swooned over the male duo Ito Hideaki and Sakaguchi Kenji in the Thursday crime drama 'Doubles ~ Futari no Keiji' (TV Asahi), which also did pretty well with a rating of 15.8%. Meanwhile, the third season of 'Iryu Sousa 3' (TV Asahi) recorded a nice rating of 14.6% as well.
Two more dramas have started the spring season with viewer ratings above 10%. 'Kakusho ~ Keishicho Sousa 3 Ka' (TBS) - starring Takahashi Katsumi and Eikura Nana - recorded a rating of 10.9% on Monday, while 'Kazoku Game' (Fuji TV) - starring Arashi's Sakurai Sho - didn't quite meet expectations with a mediocre rating of 12.0%.
'Kumo no Kaidan' (NTV) starring Hasegawa Hiroki and 'Sennyu Tantei Tokage' (TBS) starring Matsuda Shota failed to reach a double-digit rating with their respective first episodes.
As for the dramas that already celebrated their premieres in the week before, 'Last Cinderella' (Fuji TV) was the only prime time drama that actually gained viewers with its second episode. 'Kamo, Kyoto e Iku.' (Fuji TV) and 'Kasuka na Kanojo' both lost viewers, while the former has dropped below the 10% mark already.
(NTV is the only network that still discloses all of its ratings on a daily base. If anything, the other networks only reveal the ratings for their dramas regularly.)

NHK, TBS and TV Tokyo usually don't disclose the ratings for their shows on a regular basis, therefore they won't be included in the list below. Certain dramas or drama specials that aired on those channels and might lack ratings are still included with a ??.?% rating. This doesn't mean that the ratings were too low to be recorded.
An orange color means almost no change, while red means the ratings dropped and green means the ratings improved.
