What was that Japanese show about an architect and his cute neighbors?

What was that TV show I just saw in Japan? It seemed to be a comedy about a neurotic architect and his cute neighbors. It intrigued me.

My brother and I were flipping channels here in Kyoto before going out and came across this show. It was 10:15 here in Japan, and the show was on channel 8 of what appeared to be some kind of cable. This episode had the protagonist obsessively turning over things on his table after eating fondue, then visiting a haunted house with a friend.

Kekkon Dekinai Otoko (The Man Who Can't Get Married)

I just saw that show tonight too, and while I don't normally like Japanese dramas, I'm strangely drawn to it. Have to watch it next week...

Bomb. Thanks, you guys. I wouldn't have known where to start.
