LA PIOVRA (MHz Choice, Sept. 18) An Italian TV landmark, this Mafia drama (which translates as “The Octopus”) ran for 10 seasons beginning in 1984. The Italian broadcaster RAI has restored the episodes and provided new English subtitles.
LOLA UPSIDE DOWN (MHz Choice, Dec. 4) Written and directed by Ulrika Bengts, based on a novel by Monika Fagerholm, this Finnish miniseries about young women in a small town has drawn comparisons to “Twin Peaks.”
