Inspector Montalbano, Season 1

(Rai 2, 1999) [Italian, subtitled]

Two feature-length investigations. The first wobbles a bit in establishing tone—the early characters are hammed-up, Franco Piersanti’s soundtrack bludgeons the viewer with comedic overtures before allowing for more serious developments—but Montalbano is well established by the end of the second.
