Don Matteo leaves, Don Massimo arrives: the heart of the season is in the rotation of the two priests
The farewell of Terence Hill to Don Matteo could have left the audience with a bitterness in the mouth. Thus, to give the pill, the authors waited for the fifth episode before making the successor enter the scene, Raoul Bova. The plot of the season? Spoleto is shocked: Don Matteo is gone, without leaving traces. And during the mass, without too many preambles, he appears: Don Massimo, who presents himself as a substitute, without giving too many explanations. The public, such as Natalina (Nathalie Guetta), Pippo (Francesco Scali) and Marshal Cecchini (Nino Frassica), remains displaced. At least at the beginning.
Don Massimo, a priest with a mysterious past
Who is Don Massimo? He is a man with a turbulent past, who has made himself a “big” priest. It is not the classic parish priest of the past: he lived, he made a mistake, he sought the truth in his own way. Now, however, he is ready to listen and help. First of all, however, he must be accepted.
But the road is uphill. He immediately understands it when Cecchini takes him on the counterattack with a quiz on the ten commandments. The new priest holds the impact with irony, but the comparison with the predecessor is inevitable.
The weight of the inheritance of Terence Hill and the new course of the series
“Don Massimo and I enter the tip of feet, we knock and ask for permission,” said Raoul Bova, aware of the delicacy of the role. And the fact that his entrance would have led to a new course for Don Matteo. The thirteenth season of the series is that of renewal. But in the first five episodes (out of ten total) the protagonist is still Terence Hill.
Don Matteo 13 has made constant record listening
The thirteenth season of Don Matteo recorded enviable and envied listening, with over 5,950,000 viewers and an average share of 29.9%. In particular, the last episode reached 6,186,000 spectators with a 34.3%share. Will a success also confirmed in reply?
