Reacher (TV series 2022 – in progress, 3 seasons) – genre: action
When we discovered this character, protagonist of over 20 books written by Lee Child and published in Italy by Longanesi, it immediately seemed a perfect mix between Bud Spencer and Sherlock Holmes. One who leads the hands to the bad guys but also knows how to use impressive deductive methods. In short, the friend we all would like.

Good Omens (TV series 2019 – In progress, 2 seasons) – Gender: Comedy
Good Omens It is a more unique than rare case. Taken from the satirical novel of 1990 good apocalypse to all! by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman (in Italian with Mondadori), was brought to the screen in 2019 by Gaiman after the death of Pratchett. And then, surprisingly, a second season came out in 2023 that overcomes the novel, and even turned out to be more beautiful than the first season. All this by telling the funny story of an angel and a demon who “work” on earth from the dawn of the time, in theory against but in fact more and more allies … and season 3 will also come soon!
