Then, little by little, you can start using Italian subtitles. This will be very helpful, since in this way you can read and listen to Italian at the same time.

  • Un medico in famiglia (since 1998).
  • Don Matteo (since 2000).
  • Ispettore Coliandro (since 2006).
  • I Cesaroni (2006-2014).
  • Tutti pazzi per amore (2008-2012).

Try to understand and repeat some scenes over and over again. In this way you will improve your pronunciation. There are other TV series that have been very successful in Italy in the last few years, such as:

  • II comissario Montalbano
  • Gomorra

These series are more difficult to understand, because in the first one they use the Sicilian dialect and in the second one the Neapolitan dialect. So, we recommend that you watch them with subtitles or only if you are an advanced level student.
