Back to the Suburra universe. Brash and brutal melodrama of political corruption and gangster turf wars in Rome - set at the fraught moment of spiritual crisis in Vatican. Perfect for binge watching. If you like other Suburra seasons, punchy neo-noir, its imbroglio of crime families, political corruption and endless deal makings about Rome real estate. You will enjoy this one as well. Remember that this a sequel to an earlier series. If you need a refresher or just to catch up, or if you want to watch in order, you should watch "Suburra: Blood on Rome" first and you'll appreciate this show even more.
This is a superb show. Great acting, great story telling, excellent music. It's refreshing after all the formulaic offerings of Hollywood. Inspired by a real-life flu epidemic in Moscow, To the Lake was a number one bestseller in Russia, and has now appeared in a dozen languages and been adapted into a TV series. Biggest turn off for me in an average show is the cookie cutter characters, impossible to care about them. Caring about your characters comes from character building. It's like getting to know a real person. In Epidemia / To The Lake, the audience becomes part of this tragic adventure.
