   Is My Brilliant Friend a good TV series?

   • It has not swept awards shows, and is often missing from round-ups of the best prestige television (it failed to make the cut of BBC Culture's own greatest TV series of the 21st Century poll in 2021).

   Is My Brilliant Friend based on a true story?

   • “My Brilliant Friend” is based on the Neapolitan novels by Elena Ferrante, who is credited as a writer on the series, and it holds close to them in plot and narration. But unlike many TV adaptations, it is more than an illustrated audiobook. It finds its own visual language to recreate the moods that Ferrante cast on the page.

   What language is my Brilliant Friend on HBO?

   • My Brilliant Friend was the first foreign-language series to ever premiere on HBO. The show isn't just in Italian – there are large chunks in Neapolitan dialect, meaning even viewers in Italy need subtitles. The intricacies of speech are important.
