This was a fun, heartfelt and cute story about friendship, trust and unconventional love. One thing I appreciated was that the side characters weren't just empty shells, whose only purpose is for the main characters to have someone to rant to. No, they had their own smaller plots, with their own problems and quirks.
Honestly, my biggest problems with it were the tropes and the clichés, but hey it's a rom-com series so what else can you expect? Also, the main character Elsa is a little bit annoying but it doesn't matter really because the writing, acting and storyline is very good. It kept me hooked all the way through! I'm not a person who binge-watches shows (because I have a very short attention span) but I finished Plan Coeur in 1 day! I definitely recommend it, it's a very cute, entertaining and fun show.
Don't watch the dubbed version, it's painful and unnecessary. Read the subtitles, it isn't that hard. First season is genuinely funny, endearing and surprising. I think the writers in second series gave up and forgot to actually care about the characters they had given such richness to. Pretend the second series doesn't exist. I made it to episode 2 and I was just angry and the ridiculously forced situations and hollow storylines. Do watch Call My Agent. That's good all the way through.
I watched it in original French, with English subtitles. It makes HUGE difference in perception.
Generations B and X would hate it, Generation Y might like it. Generation Z would easily get hooked.
The way it starts, Episode 1, is a put off. But if you stick, it gets better. Season 1 was much better than Season 2-lots of silliness that I didn't like. Season 1-7 stars, Season 2-5 stars.
Acting was great, as expected from French Cinema. Sabrina Ouazani' voice is quite unique. Overall it is entertaining, humor is sharp and I don't agree with those who say it is full of cliches.
The term "leave at the top" should be written on the walls of producers of every succesful tv series or movies...the first season was cheerful, it had a story to tell... and the end was ... whatever your imagination liked it to be...
But they had to make another season.... had to make up forced storylines.... and spoil the fun.... i watched the second season out of respect for the first... but u don't need to...

I honestly only decided to watch this show out of boredom. After the first episode I was hooked because the first season is light, coherent and well I love romance. The characters are not intellectual like it happens in so many French films. The show is for pure entertainment and those who love love stories.
However the second season is terrible! Everything happens in a hurry. The characters are beyond childish, selfish and senseless. It seemed like the writers had way too many ideas and didn't know how to put them together. The story doesn't make much sense. It's like those romantic comedies where everything happens in 24 hours. I was very disappointed with the second season. Gladly there a happy ending so I believe there won't be another season. At least I hope so!
If you are bored and don't want to think much, go for it but if you are looking for something with content that might give you a new perspective, don't bother.
