MHz Networks Releases New Episodes of Italian TV Series DETECTIVE MONTALBANO

On Tuesday, June 28, 2016, US distributor MHz Networks will premiere the long-awaited new episodes of the beloved Italian television series DETECTIVE MONTALBANO (Il Commissario Montalbano) on its proprietary SVOD platform MHz Choice as well as on DVD.

Italian actor Luca Zingaretti reprises his iconic role as Salvo Montalbano in these 27th and 28th episodes of the international blockbuster series set in the fictional Sicilian city of Vigata. As the honest and independent police chief with a penchant for fine food, Montalbano balances the demands of his northern Italian superiors and the realities of small-town crime. The work brings him and his deputies across the paths of unforgettable, uniquely Sicilian characters.

MHz Choice is the exclusive SVOD platform for streaming the entire Detective Montalbano series which is also available on DVD and transactional video on demand. Episodes 27 and 28 will also be available day-and-date on DVD in addition to MHz Choice. All episodes of the series are presented in Italian with English subtitles. Detective Montalbano is produced for Italian television by Palomar, distributed by Rome-based media giant RAI COM, and is based on the international best-selling mystery novels by Andrea Camilleri.

"We're thrilled to have these great new episodes on MHz Choice. The characters keep getting richer and more interesting with every installment," said Frederick Thomas, CEO of MHz Networks, LLC. "Detective Montalbano is the cornerstone of our long-standing relationship with RAI."

Detective Montalbano Episode 28: THE MUD PYRAMID
In his investigation of the murder of an accountant and the attempted murder of a bricklayer, Montalbano discovers a ring of corruption between construction companies and the Mafia.
