Hanayome to Papa From Daily Yomiuri, Televiews, Wm. Penn, April 23: Hanayome to Papa (Fuji network, Mondays, 9 p.m.) is a silly little comedy in which everyone, including the usually very competent Saburo Tokito, over-emoted like a bunch of "daikon yakusha" (the Japanese equivalent of ham actors). Only Emi Wakui as Minako, the owner of the Raw Cafe, seemed in control of her role. Satomi Ishihara plays Aiko, excruciatingly burdened by her father's (Tokito) inability to realize she's all grown up. He controls her life as if she is in primary school--rules, curfew, homemade boxed meals. She decides to marry the first guy she meets, her new coworker Miura (Junnosuke Taguchi of KAT-TUN), to get a little freedom. It's a flawed premise and a flawed effort with only one star--Wakui.
