Tucci in Italy

Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy is an American travel and food show that premiered on February 14, 2021, on CNN. The series follows American actor Stanley Tucci, who travels around Italy visiting each region and exploring their cultures, cuisine, and history.

The series has received seven Primetime Emmy Award nominations, winning Emmys for Outstanding Hosted Nonfiction Series in 2021, 2022, and 2024. Its second season premiered on May 1, 2022.

CNN canceled the show in December 2022 as part of the network's revamp and cancellation of all original programming because of Warner Bros. Discovery's cost cuts. Tucci expressed interest in continuing the show on another network. In 2024, Tucci filmed another 10 episodes exploring Italian cuisine for the National Geographic network. The first season of that followup show, Tucci in Italy, premiered on May 18, 2025.
