Candice Renoir

Really engaging show with interesting plots; lovely setting in the south of France. Candice is charming and smart; her character is warm and likable and you care about her. She's more than able to take care of herself in crime situations or at work with a bitchy boss. And her work and home lives are complicated, messy, and believable. The supporting cast are very good, and the often snarky, funny dialogue (captions) support their diverse team relationships. The team wasn't sure about Candice at first, but then...

So this isn't as stylish as Call My Agent - after all it's not Paris - but the topics are current and the stories are stand-alone good. Someone mentioned that it's nice to get away from the grey, foreboding, gloom of Brit crime shows; that's true. Candice Renoir can take you to an area of France quite different from Paris or Cannes.

It would be great to have more than the 3 series offered now, maybe that will happen, supposedly there are 8 seasons.

I was in the mood for a series that was somewhat light, but which would keep my interest. This police procedural - too often they are heavy and dark - but with some humor, fit the bill perfectly. I love that this police captain's subordinates keep playing her for a blonde bimbo idiot, but she's always 2 or 3 steps ahead of them. I also find Cecile Bois (who plays Candice) to have a mesmerizing face (somewhat chameleon in the sense of constantly changing appearance -just my opinion- and a very likeable - and intelligent - personality). Finally persuaded my wife to watch and she also loves it. So this is my 2nd time through all 5 seasons. We'd like to see Acorn air additional Cecile Bois movies and series in their lineup. Just a superb actress (as is the whole cast in this series).

I love this series. I managed to binge-watch both seasons in 3 days. The cast is wonderful, every single one of them. I was afraid when the first pathologist left, I wouldn't like the replacement. Wrong! The humor isn't forced, but makes you laugh aloud. No, the police work isn't the best, but who really cares. This is much more about the people than anything else.

I know that 8 seasons of Candice Renior were made. Acorn is only showing two of them now. Step it up, Acorn. I really want to see the other six.

To everyone outside of Europe: this is not your average police show, it's, as the title suggests, a show about a woman called Candice Renoir who happens to be a police detective and a mother of four. She's quirky, colorful, chaotic and very skilled at her job. She's also trying to live her life after the divorce from her charming cheat of a husband. She succeeds, trips and falls. She learns and moves on. That's the secret of this show for me: you see her grow, scars included, warts and all. It's not always pleasant for her, but a treat to watch for the excellent cast and a scenery that's to commit a crime for.

I really like this series, Acorn has 4 seasons with subtitles... and there are 10 complete seasons with an 11th in the works as far as I have read. Candice is a unique and bright character who not only has to deal with her children, her job and some of its frustrations, but her personal life and all the changes that divorce brings. Her relationships with her co workers are well put together. Especially her relationship with Antoine Dumas. They both do an exceptional job of letting the viewer understand their emotions even without knowing the language! I have been frustrated I couldn't find any more seasons with English subtitles especially when they are available with French, German, and Portuguese dubbing. Please Acorn add them all!
