Sopravvissuti (2022– )
5/10
the usual cringe
9 October 2022
It promised to be the italian (well, the french-italian) lost or the 100, but as always is just the usual boomer-friendly fiction from RAI.

Although the actor try very hard to be believable, as always most of them are insufferable snobs or drama queens, to the point of being funny or just hysterical,unemotionless whining. This is a typical clichè in italian screenwriting, especially with women.

The amount of filler time is amazing, mostly "emotional scenes" with the usual sad violin or piano while doing random stuff. In episode 1 one fo the survivors enters the room and starts throwing away her stuff. No explanation, no hint from acting, just sad music. On episode 2, a father watches the videos from her daughter during his time away, and OF COURSE we must see all the videos, repeating the same stuff.

Other filler times is the confrontation between survivors and their families or friends. They never really say anything, they only speak In metaphors or great cliches about life. Any conflict is either solved with slaps, insistence or denial of anyone's feeling. Everybody is too emotionally unavailable, damaged or impaired to understand anybody. As always with italian "drama". But hey, there is fun for the youngsters too, the teens make their own teen love drama/school subplot.

"I don't know what you have suffered during your journey, and honestly I don't care." This phrase from ep. 2 is a perfect summary of the feeling this show.

Were it 4 or 6 episodes, I could have thought of watching it for the sake of the mystery, but I already watched Lost, I've not 12 hours to sacrifice on this.
