Guida Astrologia per Cuori Infranti
Guida astrologica per cuori infranti, which is based on Silvia Zucca's best-selling books and which I suggest for advanced students, looks at friendship, love, work, strange encounters, and tragicomic events through Alice Bassi's eyes. For a small television network, Alice, who is in her early 30s and is single (by choice), works as a production assistant. She has limited career options and is searching for true love and job satisfaction.
Blanca
Blanca, a popular television show on the Italian Rai in 2021, is now available on Netflix.
Blanca is a young police consultant specializing in audio file decoding who has been hired as an intern at a police station in Genoa, Northern Italy. The woman lost her sight when she was twelve years old as a result of a tragic fire in which her older sister Beatrice died.
Her tragedy inspired her to join the police force. Because the characters in the show do not use a specific dialect or accent, it is an excellent resource for improving your Italian listening skills.
FedeltÃ
The best-selling novel of the same name by Marco Missiroli, which is also available in English translation, is the basis for the loosely based Netflix Italian miniseries titled Fedeltà (Fidelity). The story of a couple who reside and work in Milan serves as the backdrop for the drama's exploration of the themes of passion and betrayal, as well as the effects of both.
Generazione 56K
Matilda and Daniele met as teenagers when the Internet was only available at work or via slow modems in Generazione 56K, a new and exciting Italian television series premiering in 2021. (from which the title of the show comes).
The Medici: Masters of Florence
The Medici is, in my opinion, the best Italian television show in recent years. Because it is an Italian and British production, the series was mostly shot in English. The Italian-dubbed version, on the other hand, is fantastic and has been a huge hit in Italy for the entire three seasons.
This is an engrossing and intriguing historical drama series. The series will show you a glimpse of life at the time, including wars, political intrigues with the Vatican state, and, of course, the Medici Family's strong ties with the most prominent creators of the time, including Michelangelo, Raffaello, and Leonardo, who used to work in the palace.
Incastrati
Incastrati /Framed! The well-known Italian comedians Ficarra and Picone will appear in the 2022 television series A Sicilian Murder Mystery.
The program centers on the exploits of two unfortunate TV technicians named Valentino and Salvatore, who by coincidence find themselves at the scene of a crime. They use their understanding of crime TV shows to clean up the area and leave it alone so they won't be thought to have been involved. Naturally, this will cause a string of (funny) mishaps in their lives.
I adored this series as a Sicilian because it has critical themes about Sicilian and Italian society hidden beneath the humor.
Baby
Baby is a Netflix Italian teen drama set in Parioli, one of Rome's most exclusive and fashionable neighborhoods. The story follows a group of students from an elite high school who become involved in prostitution. The story was inspired by true events that occurred in Rome several years ago.
Boris
Boris is an Italian television series that aired between 2007 and 2010. The plot revolves around the behind-the-scenes production of an Italian television series. When a new intern arrives, he discovers that the television world is not what he expected.
This Italian series demonstrates how frequently the race for money and success influences the quality of what we see on television. The show was popular in Italy, and it is now available, having recently been added to Netflix.
Suburra
This is a highly addictive and entertaining thriller from Rome with an all-star Italian cast. Because I was sick with the flu last year, I watched the entire two seasons in three days.
The series follows the exploits of several mafia gangs whose ties to corrupt politicians and the Vatican clergy are intertwined. The plot is most likely based on true events. Suburra will pique your interest, especially if you want to learn more about Italy's dark side.
Warning: the main characters in Suburra are shady criminals and odd characters from the Roman suburbs. That is why they use the Rome dialect and slang, which may be difficult for a non-native Italian speaker to understand.

Even though, the series is well worth watching. Make sure to select either the Italian or English subtitles.
The Name of The Rose
It is the television adaptation of one of the most important works of Italian literature, The Name of the Rose (Umberto Eco). It tells the stories of a friar and his young apprentices who investigate a series of mysterious deaths, putting themselves in the crosshairs of a powerful inquisitor. The story takes place in a Middle Ages abbey.
