Sicilian Schmaltz at its Best
12 September 2023
I started watching to improve my Italian for a pending vacation in Sicily. Soon, I was hooked. I've watched every episode available on Prime and Acorn and am desperate to see the next seasons. Cliffhangers are torture. I especially enjoyed the underlying theme providing a glimpse back at the discrimination of women in the workplace as well as featuring a few who were talented and gutsy enough to buck tradition to build a career. The stereotypes are somewhat exaggerated but if you like soap operas and enjoyed Mad Men, you are likly to love Paradiso. Season 8 was recently released somewhere. I'm impatiently waiting for it to premiere in the USA.
