Que Cilada!

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.

This is a story about a couple of TV Repairmen, somewhat reminiscent of Laurel and Hardy, who accidentally get mixed up with the local mob and wind up smack in the middle between the mob family and the coppers. It's never not a comedy though, but still takes the plot seriously enough. So, no one turns into a horse (a L&H reference). However, there were a couple times I thought they went a bit too silly.

I'm not Italian, have never been to Sicily, and do not speak the language. I understood the jokes just fine, so not sure what the other reviewers were talking about.

The subs seemed accurate as the words matched the character's tone and body language.

Overall, this was an enjoyable watch. Now that I know this is a comedy duo, I plan to watch more of their work. A well-deserved 7* is my rating.

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.

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.

This series may have a lot of local appeal in it's native country, but it's a great example that humor does not translate well between cultures. The acting duo is bad, just bad, and the type of humor comes across as silly and stupid. Streaming services have to provide content for all its subsidiaries globally. One can only imagine that is why it is included in the lineup of one of the major streaming services.
