How popular are TV shows/dramas/sitcoms in English in Japan?
How often and at what time are they aired?
Several students told me that they watch Supernatural, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead and Friends; which other shows are popular in Japan? (I realize this is a personal preference, but some are obviously more popular than others.)
Are there any British or Australian TV shows?
Are there any TV shows with professional jargons (Boston Legal, CSI, House MD, Bones)?
Are the TV shows in English dubbed or are the viewers provided with subtitles?
Do you think Japanese translators do a good job translating idioms?
Are DVD rental shops available in rural areas?
I've read that Netflix has been available in Japan since September last year. How popular is it?
Are documentaries in English aired in Japan at all?
I'm asking because I'm trying to help my students immerse themselves in English as much as possible.
Thanks in advance for your answers
