Que Cilada!

My family and I enjoyed both seasons of Incastrati. Heck...I still re-watch all of the episodes of the show. The Italian comic duo of, Ficarra e Picone definitely had me rolling in every scene and their wacky situations. The series was so funny and very entertaining. I wouldn't mind a third season, but they have solved the case of Padre Santorini & his racket. I still can't get enough of this show. Mind you I am not Italian, also never been to Sicily, and I am trying to learn the Italian language. I understood the jokes very well since their language is similar to Spanish. Even though Netflix's has the language option to select in English, but I always keep it in its original language Italian.

I would recommend anyone to watch this show. It will definitely have you rolling in laughter. Loved the performances, plot, setting,thrills, and humor of it. So this why Incastrati deserves the 10 stars I gave it. The only thing that surprises me is that I don't see that many great reviews of this show, or even higher amount of ratings.

Is it stupid? Yes. Is it ridiculous? Yes. Is it far fetched? Yes. Will you laugh your butt off? Yes!!! A totally hilarious romp that will distract you from what's going on in the rest of the world.

We watched all 6 episodes in one sitting and, even with the not quite good dubbing, were laughing out loud the whole time, not many shows these days can make a person do that. It's not meant to be taken seriously, ok.

The Italian comic duo of, Ficarra e Picone, take on the Mafia and everything that is so wrong with the Italian system, by poking fun at it and entertaining us along the way. They play bumbling Electronic Technicians who stumble upon a corpse, and from there their whole world falls apart, but in a comical way.

What Ficarra and Picone manage to do is reveal how insane and corrupt their country is. From the new-look Mafia who have to make ends meet by doing legit jobs, to the Church and their financial dealings (the monastery who don't hand out receipts for their purchased cookies), to lame news stories from the desperate media, and even throwing in cheesy TV Police thrillers that have burnt away our brain cells. The duo have fun and go to town on it, including the gender difference when committing infidelity!

It's a Sicilian farce, that only Sicilians will understand. But if you go in with the knowledge that all is not right in the sun burnt island, then you will enjoy the silly ride Ficarra and Picone have in store for you.

The first episode is so good that you can't stop watching. This duo is very funny and has excellent chemistry between them, just like a well-made theater. I really enjoyed it and just want to move on to see what happens next.

Worth watching! I just want to add that the actresses play the mother and wife are wonderful who add a lot more to the ridiculous atmosphere in the plot.
