Katia Ricciarelli Wanted by Carabinieri Fans

The latest bomb scare in Rome, Italy, has prompted numerous articles about the incident accompanied by various images of the scene. One Associated Press photo in particular appeared on HuffingtonPost.com and got readers to comment more than usual. A contributor reminds us of a television show that ran from 2002-08 in Italy. The name was Carabinieri and one featured actor on the show was none other than soprano Katia Ricciarelli as "Monica Grandi." Fans have long since petitioned to bring the show back, but have been unsuccesful to date. Perhaps this new drama will change things.
