Carosello

The series mainly showed short sketch comedy films using live action, various types of animation, and puppetry.

RAI was looking for an original, innovative and interesting way to offer it to the public in a pleasant way through entertainment and shows without disturbing them.

Then came the idea of making relatively long (average three minutes) funny curtains, comics and sketches, which attracted people's attention.

At an experimental level, some of the test procedures were performed with the proto-caroselli, based on fictitious products, made in Turin, Rome and Milan.

Among the series' most notable segments were Calimero and La Linea, who appeared in other content outside Carosello.
