This looks really cool. I wish there were a way to get this with English subs. There are lots of Japanese drama streaming sites, but no one is carrying this and it looks really good.

look for ゲゲゲの女房

It's the morning drama -- 15 minutes a day, six days a week, for 6 months. This one seems pretty interesting to me, but I'm not sure if NHK would think about English subtitles. I'm doing what amount to transcripts, almost, but... I sure don't have the technology to do subtitling.
