I'm not surprised to find Sicilians among the fans of this show......
We're such fatalistic people.....we treat Death like a personal adversary whom we know intimately. We're not "too rational" to believe in "otherworldly entities" shall we say?
Mostly I think it's because this is, after all, a soap opera and we love stories on the grand scale of opera....life, death, witches, demons, lovers, enemies, Good, Evil.....yep, that's us!!
