I had high hopes when I started watching this show, since I lived in Tuscany once. It gave me nostalgia for that countryside. And I loved the idea.
But as other viewers noted, it quickly went downhill. Rachel seemed boorish, petty, demanding and arrogant, and worse, dismissive and disrespectful to all the people literally breaking their backs for her. Michael also became annoying-a sniveling drama queen-making me wonder why he would not grow a spine and tell her to stick it. He must be making a lot of money because no sane person would put up with her behavior.
Lastly, who converts a UNESCO heritage site in Tuscany into a whitewashed bourgeois villa you can find in Bel Air? Very disappointing! And I used to like her. Sad.
