Are there good Japanese TV dramas for a Japanese learner whose Japanese is at basic level? Do you have any recommendations?

Hmm, I can't think of any TV dramas or movies that use only basic Japanese... Does it have to be a drama? Have you tried anime, such as Ghibli? – Chocolate Mar 21 '12 at 8:17

This one seems like it would be a difficult one to answer. Have you tried any TV shows or anime that are aimed at kids, or shows staring kids? At Home Dad might be a good one, or as Chocolate said try some Ghibli – Jamie Taylor Mar 21 '12 at 9:03
This kind of question would be difficult to answer here because it's all subjective, and the voting system doesn't handle subjective very well. You could try asking in the chat room though. – Troyen Mar 21 '12 at 17:22
Anime doesn't show actual 3D people with language, facial expressions and accurate movement of the lips. – Kaz Mar 29 '12 at 0:07
Nihonjin no Shiranai Nihongo (日本人の知らない日本語) is a great one for higher-beginner and intermediate learners. – Philip Seyfi Mar 9 at 12:51
