The Doctor One
show I definitely intend to check out is Za Doctor (July 4 at 9 p.m.
on TBS). In a season full of doctors and dentists, the main attraction
of this series is Kazushige Nagashima, the son of the Yomiuri Giants
manager. He is not only riding on the coattails of his "royal" connections,
he has actually distinguished himself in some small parts and a few
commercials. This could be his big chance to move centerstage in the
acting world. The plot, concentrating on the rivalry between surgeon
Nagashima and an internal medicine specialist, looks a little thin,
but this drama has a strong [TBS Synopsis]: Kazuma Asou, who helps out in his friend's clinic, is a doctor enjoying a peaceful life on rural Ishigaki Island. However, his father's death causes him to move to Tokyo and he starts working for a big hospital where he meets his old rival from his amateur boxing days, surgeon Kanzaki. Memories of their past return, and Asou finds himself once again competing with his popular counterpart. Their rivalry is further exacerbated by the two men's wildly different personalities, and it begins to involve the other doctors and nurses. STARRING: Yoko
