Huge in France

I think it's really funny and quite original. I am actually really enjoying it.

I have graded this an eight overall because although there were a couple of middle series episodes that were less interesting, around six or seven the stories became quite riveting. I did think this was going to be comedic, fish out of water, all the way through. But actually the rather tragic Alan had me rooting for him to get a break. Gad's son Luke I had pegged as a spoiled brat. But he turned out to be the most focused. I was sorry when this finished. Hope there is a follow up.

This show is awesome. I love the fight of France vs. L.A. and am laughing out loud every episdode. I'm picky with comedy and this show deserves a higher rating.

This is actually quite a clever series. I think the subtlety is lost on the people who are leaving poor reviews. There is satirical intensity in a few scenes which some might mistake for being serious. I don't think Americans will understand the humour as much as the British, especially with how it pokes fun at the LA culture.

I don't write a lot of reviews here. There's just no need for more of the same echos in the fray. strangely, (to me), this show is sitting at a 6.8 and that is sorely underrated, so I felt obligated. Euro humour is often lost on us North Americans. This show provides a well written blend of the two styles. There is a depth to the characters and a sharp intelligence to scripts that I think is lost on a lot of people. (Like D'elia's sick jokes).

Give it a try but try to see it with an open perspective. I hope you like it as much as I.
