It's just a mindless entertainment and I'm here for it. Nothing to hate but us Italians get very defensive when foreign productions revisit our ancient classics. It's an innate cultural thing, since we're educated with those books since we're basically toddlers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I worded my comment weirdly, it's not the Netflix kind of comedy if you know what I mean? There's this specific genre of 'old times' comedy shows that makes me cringe so hard Soft, soothing, and succulent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
