Un passo dal cielo

Well I haven't seen it all,but what I have seen pleased me very much!The sights of Italy in this project are astounding!Watch it! It is very humble,adorable show!

I just saw this in the US on PBS Masterpiece. As others mentioned, I was very confused initially because the description here and in other places did not match the series I was watching. But I've since discovered there were 3 earlier seasons (or series as I think they're called elsewhere) with a different lead actor. The so-called 1st and 2nd seasons we're watching are actually the 4th and 5th seasons. I'd give the show's dialog and plots an 8 or 9 on their own. The drama is a bit over the top heading toward melodrama and the comedy, esp. With the police officers who are basically the Keystone Kops, is more slapstick silliness and pratfalls that subtle comedy. The lead actor - who has become a meme on reddit as "Hot Forest Ranger" - does most of the crime solving when he's not dealing with his personal issues and demons or dramatically staring off into the distance. But all of that notwithstanding, it's worth watching for the cinematography. That is worth 12 stars at least. The scenery is mesmerizing! Filmed in and around Dolomite National Park and the real village of San Candido in the Alto-Adige. Trust me when I say - watch a few episodes and you'll be adding to your bucket list of travel plans, digging out your passport and checking flight schedules. It is THAT tempting! My hope now is that PBS gets access to the next season. I'll be crushed if they leave it where it is now.

I find this a bit confusing. I live in the US and Masterpiece just started running this series but the main character is Francesco who apparently appears in this series down the road. The plot is that his wife believes and he does to that he is responsible for the death of his son who was playing with his gun. I'm not even sure this is the same series but most of the characters are the same. I wonder why Masterpiece didn't start the series at the beginning. Anyway, great show with scenery to die for. Good plot, good cast - between the scenery and the messages I come away feeling good. Hope someone else can lend info as to the confusion.

Without Terence Hill, it's not like that anymore. Hairy, hallucinatory was the worst choice.
