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?
Just when it was getting interesting, it was cancelled. The criticism about American accents notwithstanding, very little about this show disturbed me at all. The unFrenchness of the cast made Jean Reno's role stand out much more and I suppose my bilingualism made me not only appreciate his English accent more, but also allowed me to understand it.
It definitely had things going for it, although yes, the casting was a tiny bit weak: Reno's boss didn't quite have the stature one might expect of a senior cop, and Reno's daughter might have been a tad TOO vulnerable but in a way, these small apparent failings were not really negative and certainly didn't detract from my enjoyment overall.
Interesting stories, interesting routines (I liked the semi-comical back and forth between team members at the beginning of each case), a very believable and likable cop in Jean Reno and of course, Paris, all went to make it something of a disappointment for me that there won't be any suite.

I was looking forward to some gritty French drama series, starring the incredibly talented Jean Reno. I understand that the series has to appeal internationally (and by that I mean Americans), but it's totally NOT French. Jean Reno is wasted and the plot is interesting in terms of story lines but the police-procedure is so contrived, and whilst it's not entirely predictable, it's full of leaps in investigation.
Reno plays it French but everyone else is either American or British and I don't get that. He's investigating random murders (being a homicide cop) but everyone is English! Everyone! Even if they spoke with cheesy French accents it would have made more sense. The producers missed a trick by making it too much like all the other investigative procedurals that are on US and UK TV at present - if the only thing different is that it's set against Parisian architecture, that's not a good enough reason to watch. The script is too staccato because the action is stilted due to the contrived leaps, and even Reno can't raise this show to above 5/10 for me. Tom Austen the sidekick is good, pretty and the flirty cop who gets all the ladies to open up with information - well cast - but I would like to see some reason why he's working in Paris and hear him attempting to speak French occasionally.
Only Reno's character St-Clair has a back-story, which makes the program too shallow. St-Clair's struggle with drink and drugs is only touched on, but perhaps it's early days in the series... there's not much story arc.
It needs to be more French. I'd love it then. Subtitles aren't such a bad thing!

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.
What a waste of the superb talents of Jean Reno! The only actor permitted to speak with a French accent (well, he could hardly do any other) but its completely unfathomable why the rest of the cast - many of whom are English - are forced to speak with an America accent. Why? I can only assume it was done to improve the appeal to a US audience - but surely if they can understand Jean Reno, they can understand the likes of Sean Pertwee speaking in their own tongue?
My other complaint would be the deliberate wobbly-cam - something that always winds me up. Why do it? I'm pretty sure I don't move my head around when I'm trying to listen to someone.
There are some good stories here - one standout jewel is Episode 6 with a moving performance by Sam Waterston. Perhaps character backstories were expected to come into play in later series but it was predictably canned after its first season.
Overall - worth watching - but be prepared to get annoyed with it!
