Chi segue il mio blog sa che sono un appassionato di serie televisive (di un certo tipo…), ergo non potevo non dire la mia su questi ultimi due giorni.
Perchè?
Perchè stanno andando in programmazione due di alcune delle più interessanti serie televisive di quella che mi piace chiamare la new wave televisiva USA.
La prima (in ordine) di programmazione è Numbers (anzi Numb3rs).
Prodotta dai fratelli Scott (Ridley – Alien e Blade Runner – e Tony – Top Gun e Spy Game), è la storia di un brillante matematico che grazie alla sua spiccata sensibilità nei confronti di questa disciplina, da una mano al fratello agente dell’FBI per risolvere alcuni casi emblematici.
Cosa va
Bella l’idea di provare a dare ordine ad un universo senz’ordine come quello del crimine (mica tanto disordinato però).
In realtà teorie e analisi matematiche hanno lo scopo di fungere da “filosofia” per acchiappare criminali (come il serial killer del pilot o i rapinatori del secondo episodio). Un po’ come è già avvenuto con la puntata “Teoria del caos” di CSI 🙂 .
Cosa non va
Troppo presente l’atmosfera a là A Beautiful Mind, e troppo sfruttato lo stereotipo del matematico che scrive senza posa formule incomprensibili fino a giungere alla verità. Altrettanto antipatico lo stereotipo del matematico disadattato socialmente.
Insomma matematici e matematica ne escono fuori come stereotipi da fenomeni di baraccone.
Anche i dialoghi non aiutano in questo:
“Ho scritto l’equazione che permette di individuare dove vive il nostro assassino”
Ma quando mai!
Magari si potesse fare una cosa del genere: noi sociologi invece di usare la statistica useremmo le equazioni differenziali, o magari la trasformata di Fourier.
Inoltre insopportabile il claim della serie:
Il primo serial che usa la numerologia come chiave dell’indagine.
Numerologia?
E perchè no l’astrologia celtica o l’oroscopo cinese?
La numerologia è un’arte mantica, cioè è un meccanismo divinatorio senza basi scientifiche.
La matematica no, è una scienza formale, ma non esoterica (piuttosto potremmo chiamarla essoterica).
Non mi pare una cosetta da poco. Già in Italia la matematica è bistrattata, manca solo una cattiva comunicazione e il gioco – il cui premio in palio è l’ignoranza – è fatto.
Giudizio complessivo
Affascinante. Credo che col tempo migliorerà (domanda ai beninformati: ma anche questa serie è passata su Fox?)

L’altra serie invece è Lost, che ha al suo attivo svariate decine di fan anche in Italia (tra cui il mio amico Luca Pandemia).
Di cosa si tratta?
Un aereo si schianta su un’isola e i sopravvissuti dovranno vedersela con i problemi legati alla sopravvivenza e ai misteri che la circondano.
Sembra un inizio come un altro, vero? Invece la serie è tutt’altro che prevedibile
Cosa va
Tre parole: ritmo, suspance, topoi.
Ritmo. Il pilot che ho visto ieri sera riesce ad alternare bene momenti lenti con momenti concitati /quest’ultimi preparati dai momenti lenti).
Suspance. L’isola nasconde dei misteri (una bestia – detta scherzosamente dai fan “Lostzilla” – che abbatte gli alberi al suo passaggio, un orso bianco in Oceania, uno strano messaggio radio ad anello). Ma anche i sopravissuti nascondono dei mesiteri. Per i più scafati: due ottimi canovacci per far proseguire gli episodi ad libitum.
Topoi. L’isola, (un nome per tutti: Jules Verne), la lotta per la sopravvivenza (un classico: Golding “il signore delle mosche”), lo scenario corale (Ed McBain docet. Praticamente tutte le serie della New Wave TV USA: da CSI a Desperate Houseviwes), la bestia mai inquadrata (vecchio adagio da cinema horror di serie B: il miglior mostro è quello che non viene inquadrato).
Cosa non va
Per adesso il sistema mi pare che regga, anche alla luce del fatto che i prossimi episodi – come era prevedibile – si concentreranno sui singoli sopravissuti.
Aspettiamo e vederemo.

Se posso dare un giudizio strettamente personale, il pilot mi è piaciuto molto, ma non mi ha entusiasmato (però ricordo FondamentaLOSTi che non sono un appassionato del genere).
Però ammetto che ci sono tutti gli ingredienti per renderlo una serie di culto.
Se posso partire per la tangente, mi sembra però che la serie abbia una sua “vita” (non saprei come chiamarla altrimenti), perchè il modo migliore per descrivere la condizione esistenziale contemporanea è la metafora della sopravvivenza.
Guerre, sicurezza, controllo sono tracce di una forma culturale legata all’ “aver paura di”, anche se non sai di cosa.
Vabbeh.
Zum Beispiel sind Freispiele in der Regel auf bestimmte Slots oder Slot-Kategorien beschränkt und können in der Regel
nicht für Live-Dealer-Casinospiele verwendet werden. Andere Boni erfordern, dass die Bonusgelder innerhalb einer festgelegten Frist nach
Aktivierung genutzt werden, andernfalls verfallen sie.
Spieler müssen diese Limits genau beachten, um keine Bonusangebote zu verpassen. Nicht alle Boni haben Umsatzbedingungen, aber
sie sind üblich, insbesondere bei Einzahlungsboni.
Dieses musst du erst nutzen, bevor du auf andere Boni
zugreifen kannst. Anders sieht es aus, wenn der Casinobonus ohne einzahlen als alleiniges Angebot bereitgestellt wird.
In einigen Fällen stellt der Online Casino Registrierungsbonus ohne Einzahlung einen Teil eines Willkommenspakets dar.
Hierzu gehören nicht nur die Umsatzanforderungen der Bonusgelder, sondern auch möglicher Freispiel-Gewinne.
Lesen Sie jedoch alle Bedingungen aufmerksam durch, denn alle Casinoangebote haben ihre Regeln. Wir wissen,
dass Online Casinos ihren Spielern viele Boni anbieten. So bieten Casinos zahlreiche Arten von Kundendienst – E-Mail, FAQ und auch Live Chat.
Die besten Online Casinos in Deutschland ⭐ bieten den Service
von höchster Qualität ✔️ schnelle und sichere Zahlungen sowie ⏩ eine breite Auswahl an Casino Spielen für jeden Stammkunden an. Ein wirklich gutes Online Casino ist sicher ⭐ verwendet ein für
Sie bequemes Zahlungssystem ⏩ verfügt über eine breite Auswahl an Spielen mit wirklich
schönen Willkommensbonussen.

Crown pokies online good site, interesting slots, but I personally missed a little cashback or personal

‼️ Read our unbiased Oshi Casino review and discover the latest Oshi Casino bonus codes.
I can sort over 10,000 slots by volatility, RTP, bonus features,
or provider in just a few clicks. For winnings exceeding $15,000,
the casino reserves the right to process payments in monthly installments of up to $15,000.
My research and testing show that DragonSlots is currently the most well-rounded online casino in Australia.
Its tropical setting adds a unique vibe while you explore over 500 gaming machines and a variety of table games.
If you’re someone who likes playing on your phone, you
might find it annoying that there are no
native apps for AU casinos. “Playing from anywhere at any time” might be a bit much when we’re
talking about casino games, but I cannot deny the convenience.
Getting cash from brick-and-mortar casinos probably seemed more convenient in the past, when online
bank transfers would take 2 weeks to process.
In the event of a late cancellation or no show, the first nights’
accommodation charge will be incurred. Book the Getaway Package and join in the fun. It’s time to treat yourself and book a getaway with
all the special extras. Here you can enjoy the finest local bites at Terrace Kitchen, soak up the fresh air on a horse ride, feast on the buffet at Links, try
a game or two in the Casino, or grab a drink at
Tonic Bar. There’s no better way to kick off your holiday.
Our resort is the perfect place for couples, friends,
and family to get away and have some fun.
Table games are indeed super fun to play, but it’s gaming machines that are the main attraction. The casino is home to many
table and electronic games spread across two gaming floors in the building.
Wrest Point also features blackjack tournaments that follow a three elimination rounds then a final table round format, over one full
day. The Range is scheduled to open 11th August 2025, including the driving range,
mini golf and bar and restaurant.
Enjoy a lively buffet at Links Restaurant or a refined dining
experience at Terrace Kitchen, both inspired by the spirit of the West.
Say goodbye to 2025 with a celebration full of flavour, fun, and Wild West flair at Country Club.
No matter how you choose to celebrate, Country
Club is the perfect place to enjoy the spirit of the season, stress-free and full of festive cheer.
Located near the lower gaming floor adjacent to Watergarden Café and Dining,
this is a great bar to stop by for an ice cold lemonade from
outside, or something stronger! Open past midnight (1am & 3am closings) 7 days.
Excellent fully stocked bar range and live sports playing all night on the big screens.
