An Italian language series, the show doesn’t pay homage to the vague, oddly repetitive horoscopes found in the depths of the newspaper, but rather, gets serious about its astrological research with the use of birth/natal charts. For those unfamiliar with the term, birth or natal charts represent the positions of the Sun, Moon and the other planets during your exact time of birth. Of course, they may not sound reliable but a birth chart can reveal the specifics of an individual’s strengths and weaknesses, their personality and red flags to look out for.
Despite the divinity of a birth chart, astral affinity does not prevent Alice from experiencing a series of bad dates, embarrassing misunderstandings and awkward surprises, just like the rest of us navigating the dating world.

As expected, the series’ cast list has a jam-packed line up of Italian star power. Leading the cast is Claudia Gusmano as Alice, Michele Rosiello as Davide and Lorenzo Adorni as astrological guru Tio.Joining them are Alberto Paradossi, Esther Eilsha, Fausto Maria Sciarappa and Emanuela Grimalda to name a few.

Given our sudden lust for all signs influenced by the astrological—hello, dating apps’ star sign badges—it feels all too familiar to let the planets help you whittle down the dating pool. But of course, Alice must find out the hard way, whether the zodiac really plays a part when finding true love.Fascinated?
