Rome's grittiest cops return — same city, new chaos, zero chill.
Season 2 • Episode 16
LatestIt's time for Ardenzi and Sabatini to show down. Alone and hunted, the former agent plays his last card: a desperate move to strike at Ardenzi's heart and force him to collaborate with him, turning his back on the Mobile and the Law.
Set in Rome, it is a spin-off of the series Distretto di Polizia, which aired on the same network from 2000 to 2012, reprising the character of Roberto Ardenzi, played by the protagonist Giorgio Tirabassi.
Acting
Tirabassi carries 15 years of character history with effortless weariness.
Production
Rome itself — crumbling, beautiful, utterly unglamorous.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Distretto di Polizia defined Italian prime-time crime for 12 years; Mobile Squad arrived as Rai's attempt to retain aging viewership while competitors dominated streaming.
Giorgio Tirabassi is one of few Italian actors to play the same TV character across three decades, nearly unheard of in Italy's star-system culture.
