There's something about Ippei and his gang that keeps us coming back for more -- perhaps the impressive ensemble of character actors and actresses, or the incredible incidents that keep us on the edge of our seats each week. In any case, "Hotel" is back with a vengeance, with more outrageous stories than ever!   Images courtesy of TBS
