Panda

Don't take it too seriously, it's fun. It's well cast, the acting's really good and they all have great chemistry. Can't believe some people giving it such low scores, it's a light hearted whodunnit. The characters are all different but meld well and they have interesting pasts and present lives. I love the commissioner who sits there and kind of keeps them on track. I like the whole vibe; it's different, clever, fun and thoughtful.

Can't help myself but I am 'will they, won't they' with the two main characters.

Not that it really matters if they do or don't.

I look forward to it every week as know I am going to enjoy the story line and content and smile and have a giggle. I'm learning French so watching a lot of french tv series on Walter presents. I'm enjoying how different they all are.

I loved the off-beat characters and unusual situations. After watching a few episodes, I'm willing to "suspend disbelief" and allow it to play out.

The protagonist (played by Dore) is a real misfit for the role the story drafts him into. His personality perfectly doesn't fit the personality of his partner, which leads to natural conflicts.

Not to be confused with a police procedural or a sit com.

Puts France in a whole new light. I've seen a lot of French murder mysteries. This isn't one of them, even though it incorporates murder mysteries.

There are other mysteries, too, which begin to unravel after the first episode. So, I recommend giving it a chance and judging after a few shows.

Oh dear. I had a feeling this would be a massive fail in the first few minutes of watching. It took just twenty minutes to confirm. I clicked out and deleted the lot.

The series doesn't know what it wants to be. Is it a crime caper, a comedy or a detective story? However it plays out, it's irritating in the extreme with fake shouting between "Panda" the hippy cop and realist detective Lola. Of course, the hippy is right every time and, despite being off the force for two years interferes in cases in the town as and when he wants.

It's not funny, it's excruciating. It's horrifically badly acted too. Give this a miss.
