Here they embark on the pursuit of a serial killer who preys on internet stars, all surrounded by high-profile actors. From Mr. V to Melanie Dutt, Lionel Abelansky to Panayiot Pascotte, Shirine Boutella to Ophelia Kolb to Pamela Rose, the series offers 9 episodes of pure madness to discover without further ado until a very likely second season.

5. 66-5 – 3.4/5

In 2005, Gear shook the public and marked the resurgence of TV series with its production, direction and casting close to cinematic codes. After 18 years, CANAL+ reconnects with the world of Justice with brand new original creations.

Launched last September, 66-5 immerses us in the daily life of Roxanne, a young business lawyer at a prestigious Parisian firm whose fortunes change when her husband, a partner at the firm, is accused of rape. Forced to return to the bottom of his childhood towns, he, brilliantly played by Alyssa Isaez, tries to uncover the truth in Bobin’s court as a criminal lawyer.

In the program: 8 episodes, the story of which will quickly bring you and make you want to see the sequel. That’s good, Season 2 is officially in the works!

4. Love and Death – 3.9/5

This is one of the unexpected successes of the end of the year! After being at the center of the Candy series in May 2022, the incredible but true story of Candy Montgomery is this time at the heart of love and death. A 5-episode mini-series, it takes us to America in the 80s, to the small town of Wylie, Texas, where a broken woman’s body is found one morning in June.

Betty Gore, the victim was allegedly murdered by her friend and neighbor Candy Montgomery, played by Elizabeth Olsen. How did this most respected woman turn her dream life into a nightmare? The answer lies in this thriller, which perfectly depicts America at that time and which you will want to watch in one sitting.

3. Silver and blood – 4/5

This is undoubtedly the French series that has attracted the most attention in recent months! Directed by French César winner Illusions Perdues Xavier Janol, D’Argent et de Sang follows these series cut to the big screen. Featuring the talents of its lead actors (Vincent Lyndon, Niels Schneider and Ramsey Bedia to name a few), the first 6 episodes of this original creation take us through the con of the century.

Between 2008 and 2009, billions of euros went up in smoke in a new financial market called “carbon quotas” to combat global warming. Money and Blood tells the story of an association of con artists in Belleville, who teamed up with dealers from high-end neighborhoods, all of whom were hunted by obsessive investigators. or when human passions are fired beyond mere interest. A gem of staging and writing that needs to be seen before finding Part 2 in early 2024.

2. The Night Laurier Gaudreault Wake Up – 4.2/5

Xavier Dolan is undoubtedly one of the most talented filmmakers of his generation, marking the memories of the audience with such gems as Les Amours Imaginaires, Laurence Anyways, Mommy or Juste la fin du monde. At the beginning of 2023, at the same time that he announced the end of his career as a director, the 34-year-old Canadian raised the curtain on the very first series.

As a 5-hour feature film (which some will want to watch in one go), The Night Where Laurier Gaudreault Awake is adapted from Michel Marc Bouchard’s play of the same name. This psychological drama, both ambitious and sublime, paints a portrait of the LaRouche family and the mystery that binds and destroys it, in two time periods: the 1990s and today.

What tragedy happened one night in October 1991? What truth is each member of the clan running from? That’s what Xavier Dolan perfectly manages to say with one of the most successful mini-series of this decade.

1. Fargo – 4.4/5

If Fargo evokes the 7th Art icon among movie fans, it’s also a series that has established itself as a marvel of the small screen. Adapted from the iconic and extraordinary thriller of the Coen brothers, it was born in 2014 and featured Martin Freeman as Lester Nygaard, a simple and ordinary person who becomes close to a killer.

Based on the public and critical success of this first season, the series has since spawned 3 other chapters, each with a different cast, setting, and time period. And while CANAL+ has revealed that Fargo will return for Season 5 in early 2024, the first 4 are available on myCANAL for an extra lesson you won’t regret!
