Série Noire

This series is a comedy/drama/thriller that follows two writers of a night time soap about the criminal and legal worlds. The writers decide they need to get more first-hand experience to inspire them to write a second season and end up embroiled in the criminal underworld.

Don't let the fact that this is a Canadian production and in French deter you from seeing this series - it is one of the best Canadian television series ever made (although Schitt's Creek and Corner Gas are great too.) Even though this is in French, it is still great with English subtitles. I am not fluent and had to read the subtitles (except when they swore -- that I know in French...) and it was great!

(Added November 2018) Season 2 is not as good as season 2, but still worth watching (maybe a 7/10). You will have to see season 1 to understand who all the characters are and plot.)

Since BBad season 2, i didn't focused on a TV show so quickly - maybe the wire & Battlestar since BTW-

I had to e honest, my fantasy is to be a TV show's writer, but still. This TV show is f word linking virtually & reality; (really placed in abeam as Don Quichotte if you read it)

I never saw a scene witch can have dramatic tension, & a comic gasoline in the same time)

A character made me literally have(and have no shame to tell it for this show) some tears : Marc Hercand when he says episode 9 ......."Il n'y a pas De difference between Lui et Moi".

After 2 EPA. & only 2 days in Québec, it was in my top 3, between Oz; Breaking Bad; The Wire;; after episode 3, it was definitely my number one until the end.

This is a decent show. There's good acting in it and some good darkly comic moments too. Story could be better and it kind of goes off the rails a bit by the end.
