I found this article in the Kyoto newspaper about a possible Mitsuhide/Gracia taiga drama in the works. This is news to me. Does anybody know about it?

No but just as AOI bought forth the prospect of a Three Azai sisters Taiga which we now have to endure (TV Japan has been free since the Earth Quake ,so we can see Gou ,its not subtitled but who needs subs for this ,even the dimmest bulb in the great fuse box of life can follow this tepid period soap ) as Gou or Goo as i call it .

Still knowing that Gou gave birth to a cross dressing drunken sadist it may finish on a high note

If you go back to 06 and the excellent Komyo Ga Tsuji it seemed like a Gracia Taiga would be coming forth as soon as some half decent NHK Scribe could be found to come up with a plot ,
Besides it seems every other year we get a Taiga with Nobunaga /Hideyoshi and Ieyasu so id expect to see this after kiyomori .

One thing though knowing NHK Gracia will probably end up being played by some muppet like Aya Ueno

Well, that's inevitable to draw in a younger audience. The same thing is done in the U.S. or Britain, too. There's always newer and newer versions of Superman or Austen's Emma. By the way, the new Superman is British. Maybe Henry Cavill can play Will Adams in a future Taiga drama.

Blasphemy! The next thing you know, Korean and Chinese actresses will be playing the part of Japanese characters and Westerners will be starring as Fu Manchu, Dr. Daka, Charlie Chan, or Mr. Moto. They'll even make James Bond into a Japanese.

Oh....wait...

I am with you on that one Lemon. After the first half of episode one, it was all over for me.
