.... the usual MTV show for pimple-faced teenagers, there's perhaps an attempt to do something different and less silly, but the reportage is a completely different matter.

I noticed that in the collections of this genre there are some guides that I believe would be very useful, such as an atlas on Italian singer-songwriters, American folk singers, and women's music around the world.

"Moonlighting" (Willis's breakout series) is the spin-off of "Remington Steele." Very different in terms of plot and characters, I find it less interesting and decidedly more '80s and glamorous. In an episode from '87, however, there is a crossover where Willis and Brosnan act together as the two characters that made them famous.

Brosnan was launched by this series, and he was soon asked to portray Bond. But he was under contract and could not break free until '87. When he finally did, the series had to end, much to the disappointment of fans; the addition of the fifth season with 8 episodes is a consolation, but it seems it should have been more. However, the chemistry of the duo was strained due to Brosnan's whims, and thus a smaller number of episodes than expected was produced.

Moreover, the first season was released on DVD in the USA with the subtitle "Before he was James Bond, Pierce Brosnan was Remington Steele," and the cover featured only him. Zimbalist logically sued 20th Century Fox, which had to add her name and remove the irritating subtitle.

I submitted a review of a TV series, but it wasn't published because the editors told me that there was currently no intention to open a dedicated section for them. Then they opened it to TV shows, but I don't think TV series are included.

There is a technique for reviewing books, at least that's what I've been taught. Reviewing means commenting and telling a story at the same time; I let the book speak through small excerpts and connected everything with comments without ever giving a personal judgment. Because writing is a truly difficult profession.

Well... they're not reviews, they're more like short essays. Be careful because if someone thinks about reviewing Fenoglio, they will find themselves facing one of the greatest writers of the 20th century. Someone who has made written language a musical instrument, Italian-English, united together in a revolutionary form. And be careful... for Fenoglio, there is no mythologizing of the Resistance, he is not a neorealist writer or anything else... he is a literary figure who wrote wonderful texts, the parabola of life seen at a moment in history.

I started by reviewing books... I've done quite a few at school, maybe I'll find some and publish them. It's a nice section, though... the one related to TV series could work too.
