From Scratch - Netflix

Is anyone else watching this new drama?

I was dubious as I watched the opening, thinking it was a new ‘Emily in Paris’ style show, but four hours into my binge-watch I’m bawling my hours out at the plot twist.

Hoping for a happy ending.

I loved this so much. I'm gonna rewatch it when I can cope with the emotional turmoil again. It's so beautiful, lots of life affirming moments that bring everything into perspective and I loved seeing Italy. I introduced it to my mum and she text me saying it's so sad, at least it's only fiction..😬so I had to break it to her that it was very much true and written by the IRL Amy.

Beautifully done I thought.

The new season of the White Lotus is set in Sicily, looks amazing there too. Not the same feel as From Scratch but still very beautiful

Just finished this, definitely had This is us vibes, although found her age annoying as she was clearly older then her character! Love the two family dynamics and how they come together in the end. Beautiful filming and the final scene was beautifully done and so raw. Lovely attention to detail like when they had the family together in the garden and Leno gave that final look taking it all in. It actually reminded me of Jade goody when she saw the sunset and the the queen on the balcony during the jubilee. They knew and were taking it all in 😢
