Season 2 Review:
This new series is more great form from a man who is quickly becoming the king of the travelogue, a genre which is otherwise overstuffed with copycat shows being churned out week after week on UK screens. Searching for Italy, however, feels like it has been done with care and class, and with Tucci at the helm, it’s great entertainment too.

Season 1 Review:
Tucci is eminently watchable, especially when he eats—he tucks into everything, such as a gorgeous zucchini pasta, with enviable fervor, and often communicates how delicious he finds the food through mischievous smiles. Though the context of the pandemic makes the show a bit of a roller coaster in terms of feeling lulled into comfort by Tucci’s inherent charm and then having elbow bumps reawaken us to the ongoing crisis, Searching for Italy still manages to serve up some pretty generous portions of escapism.

Season 1 Review:
Without being able to travel to Italy anytime soon, it’s a sincere pleasure to spend some time there vicariously through a host as game and genial as Tucci. Should he ever decide to expand his tour of the country and actually unravel its thorny new reality instead of glossing over it, it would probably make for even more fascinating, revealing television.
