Morgana: A Detetive Genial

First, do yourself a favor and watch the French version with subtitles. The English voices are terrible! I get that they're trying to sync the voices to the video but it makes the characters sound like imbeciles. The added laughing and "oh ho" every time Morgane speaks is ridiculous. Makes her sound like a lunatic.

I found the subtitled version and it's much better. The voices are authentic. Those dubbed ones don't remotely match the personality of the character.

It's a very good show and I'm rewatching with subtitles. Makes a whole lot more sense and not as annoying. I love the characters. You can actually learn something from watching this show. The way Morgane explains her process is quite fascinating.

Audrey Fleurot makes the series worth watching. The concept is somewhat old - think Holmes + Will Hunting + saucy House and you get the idea, but after a few episodes the cast chemistry begins to show and as mentioned, Fleurot goes all-in for the quirky character. If the continues to improve, definitely worth the time.

We started watching the US version of this show and liked it so we decided to see what the original French version was like. We watched the first episode dubbed and that was not enjoyable. Then we watched the next 3 episodes with subtitles, much better. For the first couple episodes the stories are the same as the US version but there are small changes in the plot that make a big difference. For instance, the subplot about Morgane's missing boyfriend is different and much more interesting. I also feel that the interactions between the characters are subtler and more believable. Morgane's interactions with her teenage daughter are very funny and her interactions with Adam are more complex. In the French version Adam contributes as much to solving the cases as Morgane does. He is also a little more respectful of the value Morgane adds to each investigation. He seems to sympathetic to her situation, respectful of her abilities and confident in his own. This gives his character more depth than the US version.

I'm an American who binge watched 3 seasons in French w/subtitles before I even found out they had dubbed it in English. I watched 1 of the episodes that was dubbed in English & I actually prefer it in it's original French w/subtitles. It loses something w/the voice actors they chose for the dub.

The premise is awesome bc it's actually kinda spot on. I've seen things that police/prosecutors have missed that are obvious to me (& are kinda common sense), that should've been picked up by someone along the way. Doesn't matter who.

The characters are fun & work together. Of course you're going to gave the push/pull at first, due to the egos being bruised. Viewers will enjoy watching the relationships of the unit grow.

Of course there's not only the weekly murders to solve, but there's also character backstory, which of course brings it's own drama, misunderstandings, warmth, friendship, and love.

You have fun, quirky characters, along with the prerequisite stick in the mud characters. You have cute kids and some pets. All blended together to make a great cast.

Give this little show a watch. I recommend this wholeheartedly. The American version is also cute, but don't discount the ORIGINAL. It's the best one.

Story: well, not all the episodes are perfect (a couple are exaggerated, I mean on investigation side and some things on the investigation process is taken lightly), but this show does really entertain! There is the background story which is very intriguing and keeps the interest alight, and there also is the romance, funny, drama, and serious side!

Actress & Actors and Acting: personally, I really like the cast, they all are very good. Very well done, guys!

Conclusion: if you are searching for something not very difficult, funny and with some romance along, well, this show will probably suits you! If you can't stand even the slightly mistake, well, I advise you to go watch other stuff as Orphan Black.
