Inspector Ricciardi

The scenery, the acting, the plots- everything is at its best. One of the most beautiful series I have ever seen. From the first episode I was captivated by Ricciardi. His longings, his sorrows, his flair: all are splendidly conveyed.

The side characters are also pleasant, well drawn. Very much enjoyed the dialogues, full of humor but also sensibility. I felt immersed in the story, as if I were on the streets of Naples myself. The first season is a masterpiece, but the second season is also very good: the ending is perfect as it is.

If I had to sum it up to one word that describes this series for me, it would be emotion. Pure, genuine emotion. A feast for the eyes and for the soul.

I don't understand why this show didn't come back for a third season. It was absolutely beautifully done. I don't get it.

The cinematography, the main storyline,the incredible acting, I love everything about this series. Deeply relate to all of it... We can hardly wait for Season 3!! And, since they're making me fulfill a character minimum, I guess I'll say that my grandmother was a deeply devout Italian Catholic right down to the votive candles, novenas, chapel veil, rosary beads, Saint statues, and hymns. She is the only person I've ever known of whom I dreamt in her spiritual light after she died. This show has conjured so many memories that I treasure. P. S. I have 63 more required characters lol, so I'll end by saying Thank You to everyone involved in bringing this gorgeous series to life.

This is a great streaming series. Beautifully filmed (cinematography, editing, etc). Set in Italy during the Mussolini fascist regime, it's basically a crime investigation series, but it's totally in context of the history and politics of the time. Top-drawer acting, great drama. It's very much a character-driven work. The detective has his own personal story and "special" skill, like so many. Each episode follows smoothly from the prior one. What you would think would be "minor" characters are actually very essential to everything going on. There's great good and great evil. I cannot imagine it being anything less than one of the best I've seen.

Beautifully and artfully produced series, set during the period of Mussolini's Fascist regime in Italy.

It is a character-driven series, centering on Ricciardi, a Detective Inspector in the police force, but also a Baron, who shuns the vanities of that ilk.

You get drawn not only into the character of Ricciardi, battling his demons, while yearning for love, but also the lives of the supporting characters he is surrounded by.

I found it to be extremely absorbing, and a captivating storyline, interspersed with the cases he solves.

It is dramatic, and romantic, and tragic, and beautifully done.

Best thing I have seen since Gran Hotel (Spanish). It is surprising to me that both of my favourite programmes of all time have had subtitles, but seriously I couldn't wait to watch the next episode. The casting and each of the characters are superb in their own right. It has a mix of mystery, romance, comedy, with a few twists and turns as it is set in 1930's Naples during the rise of fascism. I understand that there is a series 3 in the pipeline which I really hope materialises. Apparently there are a number of books on which this series is based so there should be plenty of stories to tell.

This is a hidden gem and I really do hope we get to see more.
