Profiling

Yes Chloe is flawed, as we all are. Her colorful wardrobe & personality add spice to a show about murder. Her character brings another perspective, a more emotive point of view. The other roles are also well cast and played.

We love this series. Great cast, characters, location, story, style. The Chloe character charms kind of like Poirot and Monk.

This show centers on the character of criminologist Chloé Saint-Laurent, a young woman whose expertise and unorthodox methods help to solve police cases in Paris. While for the rest we have a standard french police series with the usual amount of crimes and personal life of the police unit members, what makes it unique it's her: goofy, bold, reasoning, she gets the job done her way. I don't think you can remain indifferent to the character: either you like her or not (personally I adore). She earned a place in the long list of eccentric people started, I believe, by Dr. House. The role is played by Odile Vuillemin. Update: season 7 sees the departure of Chloé, substituted by a new profiler, Adèle Delettre, a recurring character in the show. Her approach is very different from Saint-Laurent's and the series takes a more dramatic tone. A bit of sense of humour is missing so I'd give 7/10 to this new "profilage".

We absolutely adore this show and would love to have more seasons of it!! We find Chloe's quirkiness appealing and enjoy the rest of the cast. Having lived near the little building that is being used as a police station in the series, it's nice seeing the Paris we knew before the fire in Notre Dame. We're savoring each episode of the 2nd series, hoping more will be available.

Odile ( hole)is absolutely a brilliant actor. Mannerisms, facial expressions she turns the show into a new and refreshing version of a crime profiler. Odile can probably a t in any movie, thinking a James Bond movie.
