A quasi vent’anni dalle prime serie pay italiane, il contributo mira a ricostruire le principali riflessioni critiche e storiografiche sulla serialità premium in Italia e a presentare, in un’ottica comparativa rispetto all’intera produzione scripted nazionale, le evidenze emerse da un lavoro di monitoraggio della sua offerta. Alla luce di alcune esistenti linee di ricerca e della presenza di nuove basi inform- ative, il tentativo è di isolare specificità e sviluppi di questi contenuti, in particolar modo dal 2020 al 2023, anni nei quali si è assistito a una crescita considerevole dello scripted premium, tale forse da metterne in crisi identità dominanti e richiederne nuove tassonomie.

Abstract
Almost two decades after the debut of the first Italian pay series, the paper aims both to recon- struct the main critical and historiographical reflections on Italian pay seriality and to present, in comparison with the entire national scripted landscape, the main findings emerging from a mon- itoring activity of its offering. Considering existing research lines and the presence of new sources, the goal is to isolate features and developments of these contents, especially from 2020 to 2023, years in which Italian premium scripted production has experienced a significant growth, perhaps to the point of challenging its own identity and thus requiring new taxonomies.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
