Scully

September 2025 •English

Scully was a British television drama with some comedy elements set in the city of Liverpool, England, that originated from a BBC Play For Today episode "Scully's New Years Eve". Originally broadcast on Channel Four in 1984, the single series was spread over six half-hour episodes plus a one-hour final episode. It was written by playwright Alan Bleasdale. The drama is notable for featuring many of the Liverpool football club first-team squad of that era. Francis Scully is a teenage boy who has his heart set on gaining a trial match for Liverpool to hopefully fulfil his ambition of playing for the club. Francis, in everyday situations during his waking hours, occasionally "sees" famous Liverpool players such as Kenny Dalglish when they are not really there. These dream-like sequences recur throughout the episodes. The main plotline is the efforts of Scully's school teachers to persuade Scully to appear in the school pantomime which they attempt by promising him a trial with his beloved Liverpool if he will cooperate. When Scully and his friends are not in school making trouble for the teachers and the school caretaker, they are seen roaming the local streets upsetting the neighbours and getting into trouble with the police. Scully sometimes has visions of the school caretaker appearing as a vampire due to the caretaker's nickname being Dracula. These frequent waking dream sequences give the show a somewhat surreal atmosphere.

The Incident Is Happening Around It

September 2025 •Japanese

Although there are many criminal articles, this drama does not solve any cases. Instead, a 15-minute comedy drama that focuses on the detectives' troubles and "small cases" that occur around the incident. Fuka Koshiba plays Ichika Mano, a detective who wants to do everything on her own and is not good at relying on others. Mano's buddy is Kazuto Udagawa (played by Masashi Kasamatsu). He is the exact opposite of Mano, rational and efficient, and has no hesitation in asking people for favors. A comedy drama with a new sensation, in which a pair of young detectives with such contradictory personalities unfolds while sometimes involving the people around them.
