Imma Tataranni: Deputy Prosecutor

What an actress! Despite her lugubrious face, the Main character has so much emotion in her face that even without doing or saying anything, you can't look away. A virtual tornado, she gets involved with everyone in her life from the cases she represents, to her adoring hubby, cooking-crazy daughter, mother, and in-laws. She is also the whirlwind center of those that work in her office from her boss to her two shy assistants. She attacks her cases like a bulldog. She is the Italian, often funny, sexy version of Vera.

Imma Tataranni is a deputy prosecutor who loves her job, but gets frustrated with her boss and some of her staff. Her husband is a nice guy, but not Mr. Excitement, still Imma loves him. But she isn't above a fantasy romance with a young handsome Marshall. The daughter she shares with her husband knows how to push her buttons. But when it comes to a murder, Imma will find the truth. Many characters speak quite fast and a subtitle might drop off before you read it, but this is a good series worth watching.

Too many police/detective series are run of the mill and formulaic. Imma is quirky and smart. Her relationships with her family, colleagues and surroundings (the beautiful Italian scenery feels like a vacation) make this series better than average. There are story threads that continue through each episode gives the series depth. Love Imma's style too, she can really put an outfit together.

I absolutely love these characters especially Imma! Went through season 1 and 2. I am left hanging cannot find season 3! I told my husband I now know some Italian. Arrivederci, Ann Miller.

We love this series, disappointed though that there is only 4 episodes on MHz choice...
