Let's be honest: it's not European shows that I don't watch, as Italian television, in particular.
Realities and the likes? As trashy as a Vegas themed hotel on the stip.
Cultural programs and documentaries? After midnight- and if they aren't, and happen to be prime time? reruns of reruns.
series? Either they are about mafia (like there's only that in Italy. Seriously, do our detectives work only on that, only in naples and Sicily? Last time I checked, even if I live up in North, we happen to have police. and they don't work on mafia related cases). or they are as stupid as hell (excuse me, why tyhe hell Lele worked so hard to get Alice in season one, and then eloped with her in season 2, had twis with her in season 3, and then, in season 12, he is after the love of his life? and why in the cesaroni eva isn't forgiven for cheating on her bpoyfriend, why she ahd to forgive him when he previosuly cheated on her? And is Giulio still married to Lucia? In season 4 he was eloping with another woman!)
So, yeah, no Italian television.
But yes to European one.
German, Austria. French and British shoes.
And lately?
A dutch show.
Flikken Maastricht (which I'm looking at reruns of through the streaming service of Medaiset).
Also because these two idiots,
Floris Wolfs and Eva, his partner? They are like Lisbon and Jane from the mentalist: working together from a decade or so, crazy, stupidly in love woith each other, and yet unable to say so and act on their feelings.
Hell. she almost married once- and didn't only because he died on their wedding day, not because Floris manned up enought to tell her he loved her.
Even if there's a mystery I hope I'll solve while loking at the earlier seasons.
Why does Floris has a daughter called Fleur?
(I was also wondering if writingsoemthing about them for the Small fandoms big bang, but let'0s be honest, how many people would read a story about a dutch show? So I think I will write it anyway, but post it wherever I'll feel like doing it).
