User Reviews

Great show!

Although this show was originally designed to help people learn English, I thought this show was terrific. I couldn't get enough of it. The plot was interesting and the characters were diverse and hilarious. I wish there really was a Cafe like this in life. I thought that there were more episodes to it but I can't find them. I know that this show has been shown all over the world and I think it had positive reviews overall. Whereas most television shows on TV nowadays focus on sex or mysteries, this show had feeling and made you feel like you were there. I think most of the tapes are available at local libraries if you can't catch it on TV anymore, and I highly recommend them!
