  1. Ahh, its very interesting that American Italian's Like Stanley Tucci can let the world to see and teach the way of Italian life, culture and most importantly food. I wish my grandparents and mother and father could see that now their culture is appreciated and TV shows like this brings some history to the people who took Italians for granted.

  2. Really looking forward to this. I love Italy: the people, the landscape, the weather, the mood, the way of living and enjoying life. Food is a major part of it.

  3. I don't understand the need to spread a culture of life beyond culinary to Nations incapable of understanding it.

    I really can't understand this useless trend.

  4. Quindi, in pratica, Stanley Tucci in questa serie viene pagato da National Geographic per venire in Italia per mangiare e bere tutto quello che si trova davanti…OTTIMO!!! 🤣🤣🤣

  5. Wow! Che bello, uno dei miei attori preferiti al centro di una serie sul nostro bel Paese! Che onore!

  6. So glad he's going to TRENTINO-Alto Adige. I'm a proud Polentona! 😊 My nonno was from ethnic Italian/Italian speaking TRENTINO there in the Alps north of Lago di Garda, near Lago Molveno…from the tiny village of Sclemo frazione di Stenico. See the history of the Eccidio/Massacre di Sclemo by the Austrians in the First War of Italian Independence in 1848. People of our Valley di Giudicarie Esteriore spoke Italian dialect & were Irredentisti! Sadly we were not freed from the evil Austro-Hungarian Empire under Emperor Franz Joseph, until after WWI with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles. Glad you will be covering our little known but important part of history! And TY for mentioning polenta! 😊

  7. I love the look and taste of the food great fan of Stanley One thing how does somebod like him stay slim. All that pasta pastries oil etc. 😂

  8. Will this be available in the USA? I'd love to see him on TV again and in Italy! Loved the show that they cancelled. He's so good to watch and he knows so much about food and about Italy. Hopefully, we'll be able to watch in the USA. Thanks! (from Sandi)

  9. I’m sure it’s me but I love Tucci in small bites. If I try and watch a whole Tucci programme, he’s too “Hollywood movie star” for me. By which I mean too enthusiastic, too effusive, everything is totally amazing, best ever etc. From this, you can probably tell I’m an elderly English gentleman who is reserved and for whom a high compliment might be “that’s quite good”.

  10. Tucci, you lucky bastard! It took me decades of visits to Italy to come close to what you're enjoying….finally just gave up and moved…to Sicily. Buon appetito!

  11. His show last 1:45 1:45 night was amazing. So beautiful can't wait until next week. The only show on CNN that anyone watched and they cancel it. That's called real stupid😅😅

  12. No Tucci… basta … caxxo dopo decenni siamo ancora a questi clichè .. fatela finita tanto non ci capite nulla di cucina sana… non siamo il paese dei vostri balocchi che venite qui da americani plastificati a scoprire cosa esattamente?!?? se mangiamo e abbiamo il frigorifero… stattene a casa tua, avete rotto le palle!

  13. Stanley! Loved your previous series and now this one. You actually having me thinking of moving my family from Canada to Italy. Seriously…it's time for some change!

  14. Great series but I wish he’d refrain from the occasional social commentary. Just stick to the food-travelogue promise of the show.

  15. I have no desire to see this whatsoever. I hate watching people eat, or make a big spectacle of eating. I find it rather gluttonous.
