Finally caught up to the current episode of Bitter Blood, Sato Takeru's current drama and am now impatient for the next episode XP. A story about rookie detective Sahara Natsuki(Sato) who is assigned to the Ginza police department first division where his father, who left his family, works and they are forced to become partners.

Lot's of action and suspense, Cop dramas' are my favorite entertainment and there are only a few that have held me at the edge of my seat like this show. The cast is great, story is great, and it does a great job of mixing drama with laugh out loud humor. Watabe and Sato really have great chemistry as the father/son partners who have trouble communicating and seem to be complete opposites but in the end are so similar they end up being great partners on the field.

When I heard Sato Takeru's agency was strongly against him reprising his role as Ryotaro in anything Kamen Rider related I was disappointed but watching him here I have to admit the agency made the right decision. I love Den-O, loved him as Ryotaro, but let's face it the Den-O movies after he left weren't masterpieces and perusing a serious acting career was a better choice.
