Radio Enfer

The 90s sitcom that brought hysterical laughter to generations of French Canadian youths and parents alike. Radio Enfer launched the career of the amazing Michelle Charette, François Chénier, among others. The show was filmed in front of an audience and was known for its very quick and immediate "improv-like" humor. The actors were allowed to change some of their lines, which made the dialogs even more spontaneous than they already were. Fast forward 30 years later, and it hasn't aged at all! Even the references that should make it dated now add to its charm. The show inspired the YTV sitcom RADIOACTIVE, which despite being good in its own right, never reached the greatness of the original. Radio Enfer is also credited for bringing back interest in student radios in Quebec. A must-see for every French Canadian, or anybody interested in French Canadian culture.

This is a pretty good show. I liked the first couple of series very much. After that it kind of gets old and the stories get worse. Maybe they changed the writers or something. The actors in it are all pretty good. An average or better than average series overall.
