The Cop - Crime Scene Paris

This series kept my mind puzzled, not because of the mystery or detective work, but rather that it was 100% Paris but I don't think I heard a single word of French through the entire season. It really makes me wonder what the decision was behind this project. Who was the target audience?

The reason it only lasted one season is because I think the story lines are weak and a bit dull. The actors and acting was fine. Detective series are favorites of my wife and me. It was interesting seeing Jill Hennessy from Crossing Jordan in this series.

I lived in Paris for three years almost 40 years ago. I was excited to see familiar sights, and to learn of a few places in the city I didn't visit.

Jean Reno is as great as usual. Most of the scripts were solid; a couple were excellent. This is labeled as a miniseries, but it ended like a first season of a sure-to-be-continued series... which it wasn't, as the Gods of Renewal chose to bestow their blessings upon other supplicants. The crimes providing the main theme for each episode were cleared, but significant interpersonal and character and plot threads running throughout were not. The result was ending on a sour note, diminishing my regard for what I'd been thoroughly enjoying for 7.5 of its 8 hours.

I'm German, I live in Paris, with my American wife. So here comes my absolutely neutral critique : Who cares about American or British or French accent. Stiff British wouldn't make it more authentic than sloppy American. Trying to steer the show towards the International is anyway not something to hold against it. Its weak points come rather from a sometimes tepid script, foreseeable dialogs and relations. It's obvious that the producers try to be reeeaaally careful and hold on to a crime series concept that has proved entertaining so often. Unfortunately, maybe too many times. An a bit more daring approach would help the show. But it's not soooo horribly bad. Instead of canceling it, the producers should improve it - the potential is / was there.

This is a excellent cop show.The cast is great especially jean reno perfect playing a cop.jean reno best work in a English movie was the classic movie the professional but in this cop show jean reno also delivers a strong performance with this show jean reno shows to the audience around the world the full extend of is amazing talent as an actor.The entire cast is great is younger partner is also great there is a great chemistry between both of them.It,s the same chemistry then in the movie crimson rivers.This cop show has a great mix between the personal life of the character played by jean reno and the crime stories.The trouble relation between the character played by jean reno and is daughter is great drama.jean reno is the star of the show each scenes with him are great his acting translate a lot of emotions giving his character a lot of charisma.jean reno is a great actor every scene with him is a delight jean reno is such a great actor.the success of the show in a lot of countries around the world shows the global appeal of jean reno around the world and is popularity in a lot of countries.This cop show is a total success and it,s excellent.

While this may not be the best show Jean Reno has ever made, I still enjoyed it very much! It is kind of stiff in parts, forced in others, but he's worth watching regardless. I do recommend this. The only part that bugs everyone is that this takes place in Paris, but everyone speaks English with an American accent, except for Jean. Where's all the French?
