Summertime is a Netflix Italian teen drama, produced by Cattleya, and very loosely inspired by the saga Three Steps Over Heaven by Federico Moccia.Set in Cesenatico, the series focuses on the relationship between the two main characters, Summer and Alessandro. Summer is a mature and serious girl whose father is a musician who is often away for work. Alessandro, better known as "Ale", is a successful motorcyclist who is having a hard time because he recently had an accident. We also learn about the life and the relationships of the characters close to the two protagonists. Among them, there are Summer's best friends Sofia and Edoardo, Ale's best friend Dario, and Summer's younger sister Blue.The series premiered on Netflix on April 29, 2020, and the first season consists of 8 episodes. After the premiere of the first season, Netflix renewed the series for a second season, which was released on June 16, 2021 and consists of eight episodes. The series was later renewed for a third and final season of eight episodes, which was released on May 2, 2022. | |

Canon Foreigner: Edoardo, the male friend and classmate of Summer and Sofia, has no counterpart in the original work. Especially since Babi and Pallina in Three Steps Over Heaven go to an all-girls private school. | |

Defrosting Ice Queen | |
| Summertime / int_28c1d543 | comment |
The female lead of Three Steps Over Heaven, Babi, was a prissy and stuck-up rich girl. Here, the female lead Summer, despite being a Defrosting Ice Queen like Babi, is much more down to earth. | |

In Three Steps Over Heaven, Babi's younger sister Daniela was a shallow, bratty Hormone-Addled Teenager. Here, Summer's younger sister Blue is only a brat in the pilot, but for most of the series, she's just an innocent and insecure girl. | |

Adaptational Nice Guy | |
| Summertime / int_82a64c4b | comment |
Adaptational Nice Guy: Almost everyone, since this series is Lighter and Softer than the source material. The male lead Step in Three Steps Over Heaven was a jerk and a delinquent biker who took part in illegal street racing. Here, the male lead Ale is a well-meaning guy and a professional motorcycle racer. The female lead of Three Steps Over Heaven, Babi, was a prissy and stuck-up rich girl. Here, the female lead Summer, despite being a Defrosting Ice Queen like Babi, is much more down to earth. In Three Steps Over Heaven, Step's best friend Pollo was a delinquent like him. Here, Ale's best friend Dario is a nice guy. In Three Steps Over Heaven, Babi's younger sister Daniela was a shallow, bratty Hormone-Addled Teenager. Here, Summer's younger sister Blue is only a brat in the pilot, but for most of the series, she's just an innocent and insecure girl. In Three Steps Over Heaven, Step's ex-girlfriend Maddalena was an Alpha Bitch. Here, Ale's ex-girlfriend Maddalena seems an Alpha Bitch at first, but then becomes nicer, eventually remaining Amicable Exes with Ale. In the sequels of Three Steps Over Heaven, Step's Second Love is Gin, a Stalker with a Crush obsessed with him. In the later seasons of this series, Ale's Second Love is Lola, who is not a stalker. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
| Summertime / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: It's based on the teen romance novel Three Steps Over Heaven and its sequel, but it's much more family friendly. Unlike its source material, here almost all the characters are portrayed as sympathetic and well-meaning, there aren't people who engage in criminal activities, nobody dies, there's no Teen Pregnancy, and there's no rape.note the closest thing to sexual harassment in this series happens when Federica tries to kiss Sofia against her will, but Sofia almost immediately goes away. | |
