Detective Montalbano Has REturned on MHz

So here we are, in the unforgettable spring of 2020, with two more episodes featuring your favorite Sicilian detective. Luca Zingaretti reprises his iconic role as Salvo Montalbano in the 35th and 36th installments of this international blockbuster series, which premiered in Italy earlier this year. Series regulars Cesare Bocci (Mimi), Peppino Mazzotta (Fazio) and Angelo Russo (Catarella) also return in the new episodes.
As most of you know, Detective Montalbano suffered terrible blows in 2019 and 2020 with the deaths of creator and writer, Andrea Camilleri, director Alberto Sironi and production designer Luciano Ricceri. Last summer, however, the production managed to create these two new episodes with Detective Montalbano star Luca Zingaretti directing. Enjoy, and raise a glass to the giants who created this series and to the great talents keeping it going.
- Dear Livia – Premieres May 19, 2020
EPISODE #35: A gifted young researcher suffers a brutal death in a municipal archive but the leads don’t add up: Montalbano discovers a complex personal life but finds no enemies. It’s a heartbreaking case because the young woman was Livia’s personal friend and beloved by her parents and the immigrant orphans she worked with.
- The Safety Net – Premieres May 26, 2020
EPISODE #36: Montalbano tries to figure out the significance of some mysterious home movies while a break-in at Augello’s son’s school reveals the darker side of social media. In the middle of it all, a Swedish television company ties up traffic (as well as Mimi Augello’s personal life) while they film a period series.

Before Detective Salvo Montalbano became the seasoned and mature chief detective we already know, he was just Salvo, new to Vigata and new to being a police chief. He didn’t always live in that glorious house by the sea, or have Deputy Chief Mimi Augello as a best friend, or Fazio as a loyal assistant.

‘Lestat’ and the ‘Mayfair Witches’ Land a New Home
According to Variety, AMC Networks signed a deal to acquired the rights to author Anne Rice's best-selling novels “The Vampire Chronicles” and “The Lives of the Mayfair Witches.”
The deal includes the rights to the novels “Interview with the Vampire,” “Queen of the Damned,” “The Vampire Lestat,” and “The Witching Hour.”
If all goes as planned, AMC Networks will greenlight the scripting and airing of several series based on each of the novels, which have sold more than 150 million copies worldwide.
Check out this retweet on Christopher Rice’s Twitter page.
Historically, fans of the Anne Rice novels know that she has been trying to develop an interest in the production of a TV series based on the lives of Lestat and his companions since 2016. However, nothing came of it. Then in 2017 on the Anne Rice website, it was announced that Paramount Television and some anonymous source were also interested in the rights to "The Vampire Chronicles". Fans were once again disappointed.
Now with this latest announcement of “The Vampire Chronicles” and “The Lives of the Mayfair Witches going into future production with AMC television, let’s hope the fans of the novels' hopes are not dashed upon rocks again.

Tommaso Buscetta, a made man, flees to hide out in Brazil. Back home, scores are being settled and Buscetta watches from afar as his sons and brother are killed in Palermo, knowing he may be next.

Francesco Scianna, Valeria Solarino and Paz Vega co-star.
WHITE BOY RICK
