I decided to watch this drama because of so many amazing reviews about it. And I actually enjoyed it. Its humor is very similar to anime humor and that never fails to make me laugh. I kind of wish that I had read the manga before watching this show. However, it didn't bore me overall. It had its very great and not-so-great moments but it was still enjoyable to watch. I really adore Haruhi and liked her character a lot. The Host Club idea was also very good. I think this would make a much better watch as an anime rather than a regular show. That's because cartoons can overact all the time and still not bore us; but Tamaki's reactions got way too annoying by the end. It was too unreal. It still makes you laugh, though. I loved all the other Hosts equally. The show had some memorable moments especially those with Nekozawa and his black magic jokes were probably the best. What I also liked was that the characters had depth in spite of their goofy actions- especially Tamaki. Him treating Haruhi as his own daughter had me laughing out loud. And Haruhi's transvestite father was good for a laugh. Only the member with the teddy bear was ridiculous. The highlight of all jokes is probably the homoerotic/incest relationship between the twins. Really, this show had one of the funniest jokes I have ever come across in a drama. Now I am tempted to indulge in the anime as well as the manga. This drama is worth the watch and it ends pretty quickly- each episode spanning only 20 minutes and with only 11 episodes it is a quick watch. It never drags on and there are fresh jokes in every episode. I probably laughed hardest at the ending scene. Anime-type expressions came out to be the best from Haruhi.
