^ Boy, that's sad. I know "Ryomaden" ended with an average of 18.7, not sure about "Gou", it was probably close to the same, maybe a little lower. This one never even cracked 18 once!!
And unfortunately, the ratings are a true indicator of how awful this thing really was.
Doctor-X ended with a very impressive final episode ratings of 24.4.
Can PRICELESS catch up with its last 2 episodes?
Going My Home continues its free fall, losing almost 2/3 of its audience.

I wonder if Tomoko Yamaguchi is saying to herself, "What the hell was I thinking?!!"
Re: "Doctor X". From what I've seen a lot of those ratings are coming from the same people that would have tuned into the "Dukes of Hazzard" back in the '70s just to get a look at Catherine Bach in hot pants. Good ratings do not necessarily mean a good drama. But with those ratings I've no doubt there's a "Doctor X Special" or "Doctor X - 2" on the horizon.
Yonekura Ryoko�fs drama achieves the highest audience rating among commercial broadcasting dramas in this year
On December 14, it was revealed that TV Asahi�fs final episode serial drama �gDoctor X ~Gekai Daimon Michiko~�h (aired December 13, 9PM), which stars actress Yonekura Ryoko (37), garnered this year�fs highest audience rating at an average of 24.4%.
The drama, which stars Yonekura in the role of a freelance female surgeon, has averaged 19.1% audience rating across all 8 episodes, which makes it the top prime time drama of the year. The final episode of the drama momentarily peaked at 29.9% at 10:01 PM.
Yonekura was grateful as she stated, �gI am truly happy that many people – more than I could have ever imagined – tuned in to the drama,�h and also commented that, �gI hope that the viewers and Daimon Michiko will be able to meet again.�h (Ratings are based off Video Research�fs data for the Kanto region.)
The script for the drama was written by Nakazono Miho (53), who also wrote TV Asahi drama �gNasake no Onna ~Kokuzeikyoku Sasatsukan~�h (2010) that also starred Yonekura.
At a pre-broadcast press conference, Yonekura spoke about the difficulties in using medical jargon with, �gUntil now, I have been using my physical body, but this time, I had to use my brain. I could not stop the slight yawn�h, however, when it seems like the high ratings made her in high spirits due to the high ratings. She appeared fulfilled as she talked about wrapping up filming with, �gIt was too short, and flew so fast. Everyday, I was able to learn something.�h
Then there is the matter of the exciting catchphrase. Just as Matsushima Nanako had popularized the phrase �gShochi shimashita�h (�gI admit it.�h) in �gKaseifu no Mita,�h Yonekura has popularized the catchprase �gWatshi, shippai shinai no de�h (�gBecause I do not fail.�h)
Like her character�fs catchphrase, Yonekura has not failed in TV Asahi�fs dramas in which she starred – �gKurokawa no Techo�h (2004) garnered 17.6% in ratings, �gKemonomichi�h (2006) garnered 16.4% in ratings, �gKoshonin�h (2008) garnered 16.7% in views, and �gNasake no Onna�h garnered 17.6% in ratings.
It seems that Yonekura�fs appearance in the confirmed sequel will also �gnot fail�h audiences.
This concludes the 2012 Winter Season, and the year!
Here is the top 10 dramas for 2012:
1. Doctor-X 19.10%
2. PRICELESS 17.71%
3. Kagi no Kakatta Heya 16.00%
4. ATARU 15.61%
5. Lucky Seven 15.59%
6. Strawberry Night 15.39%
7. GTO 13.20%
8. 37-sai de Isha ni Natta Boku ~Kenshui Junjo Monogatari~ 12.96%
9. Mikeneko Holmes no Suiri 12.80%
10. Hungry! 12.68%

A decent start for the new Taiga casting Haruka Ayase... a great start compared with last year.
Confirms what I thought. "Taira" started out at 17.3, there just isn't enough interest in the Heian era so they started out in a hole they were never able to dig themselves out of. The script and casting didn't help much either.
I think the last taiga set in the Heian era was "Yoshitsune" my previous choice for worst taiga ever. While casting Takky in the lead was a huge mistake at least it kept the fangirls interested enough that they didn't get killed in the ratings.
