Number 1: On the ground
Stephen Ble had a tumultuous start to his mandate, amid death threats, demonstrations, international blunders and betrayals.
Viewer rating: 3.4/5
Should I look at it? (4/5):
“As in the first season, the humor remains as funny as ever, even if the surprise effect is no longer there. Each episode brings its share of new challenges, and it’s fun to watch Jean-Pascal Zad swim in this presidential suit.
Especially since he has no help, between his broken allies and his enemies who want his skin. Benoit Poelvorde and Jean-Claude Mouaka excel in secondary roles. There are even funny appearances, especially from Raphael Couinard and Farr. With humor, the series continues to show the dark scenes of political power.”
According to Kev Zhou (5/5):
“I recommend a very good series. Behind the series there are political ideas that are always invisible or that we never discuss on TV or in reality, especially on vacant houses, or even on the tax Pierre Emmanuel Barre, Eric Judor. Especially, always with them, we have a good laugh.”
According to Gerard Stevenson (2.5/5):
“The first season is appreciated for its plot, humor, interpretation (especially Eric Judor). Unfortunately, the second season spoils everything with its political aspects, its communitarianism with so many preconceived ideas that it becomes counterproductive, ridiculous.
why does it work
The success of Tout noir gave enormous visibility to Jean-Pascal Zadie, who was able to bring back new atypical projects, mixing his own humor with his ever-present personal reflections. And he proves it with his series En place, a quirky political comedy that makes fun of everything and which brings together a great cast, including the brilliant Alain Chabat in the second season.
Number 2: Accident
A birthday party turns tragic and divides a once wealthy, close-knit community, tearing apart families, destroying friendships and breaking hearts.
Viewer rating: 2.8/5
According to Lia (5/5):
“A huge favorite of this Mexican mini series. Indeed, the plot of this thriller is so fascinating that the 10 episodes, rich in twists and turns, flow together. Constant tension, strong dramatic dimension and flawless acting make it a great entertainment.“
According to raphou450 (5/5):
“Finally a series where you don’t get bored, no length, everything comes together, constant suspense, full of twists, just like Dallas! I can’t wait for the second season!!!“
According to Django (2.5/5):
“Cis a kind of Latin photo novel based on a dramatic plot. Episodes follow each other without interruption, the plot is basic, the feelings of the characters are so. We watch intently to find out the ending.“
why does it work
The accident certainly doesn’t shine with its originality, but it makes up for it with a tense pace. Episodes follow each other, thanks to a story full of mystery and suspense. Multiple twists and turns keep the audience in suspense and provide quality entertainment.
Number 3: Breathe
Joaquín Sorolla is much more than a public hospital in Valencia, where lives are saved every day. Physicians and residents work hard, at a breakneck pace in emergencies where stress, emotions, and even desires overwhelm an increasingly exhausted staff. The difficult situation of the healthcare system leads to an unprecedented situation…
Viewer rating: 3.3/5
According to BTSxgon (4/5):
“I watched 8 episodes non-stop, I highly recommend this series, it shows how hard it is to be a doctor and really highlights the terrible situation of hospitals in everyday life.”
According to Mia (5/5):
“This series is great. I’m not the type to watch medical series because I give up quickly, but I really enjoyed it. Respira shows the difficulties of the medical profession, but also the bad conditions of public hospitals. Honestly, I highly recommend it.”
According to Kali the Queen (2/5):
“Copied and pasted from every medical series, there’s no point in doing a second season, even Grey’s Anatomy was too long, release a series that has nothing to do with anything else, thanks.”
why does it work
After Grey’s Anatomy, the medical series has been growing for almost twenty years. The community has something for every taste and nationality. It was time for Netflix to step in and do its part, and now it’s doing so with Respira, a series from Carlos Montero, creator of Elite, one of the platform’s longest-running and most popular series. Thanks to this creator’s know-how of drama and twists and a five-star cast, Respira suddenly convinced the Netflix audience.
Number 4: Chaos
As discord rages on Mount Olympus and the almighty Zeus descends into paranoia, three mortals are destined to redefine the future of mankind.
Viewer rating: 3.6/5
According to Marion Bogaert (5/5):
“The series immerses us in the world of Greek mythology with the myth of Orpheus, who descends into hell to restore his beloved. As a former Hellenist and quite a fan of “historical” reality in general, I am pleasantly surprised by the rendering.
Indeed, they managed to combine modernity and some consistency with the original story. We find almost the entire Greek pantheon, as well as other myths, all with humor, highly recommended.”
According to Daniel Michel (5/5):
“Really fun to watch. For those who want to watch an entertaining and completely hilarious series, enjoy.”
According to Mohs root (3.5/5):
“If you like completely crazy fantasy series, you will love this, funny, completely entertaining, can’t wait to see what happens next.”
why does it work
Jeff Goldblum, Jeff Goldblum and Jeff Goldblum. The star actor, adored by Netflix subscribers, lends his features to a never-before-seen Zeus in this satirical comedy that pokes fun at the world of Greek mythology. Kaos is the work of Charlie Covell (The End of the F***ing World), the lines come out at full speed and most of the time they hit the mark!

Viewer rating: 2.6/5
According to Raphael M (5/5):
“I love this series because we know very well that everything is fake. (…) However, the innocence, simplicity and utopia of this series make us dream and forget our problems and help us to relax, while we warmly call our country, it’s nice! And also gives us good addresses.“
According to Marinekic (2.5/5):
“We like the quirky side, the love stories between the characters, but it’s not at all like real Parisian life and too many clichés about the French in general.“
According to Poupi P (0.5/5):
“The number of clichés about Paris is quite impressive. In what world is Paris like that? A little criticism of a French model… a scenario worthy of the fires of love. No logic.”
why does it work
Even if it is divided, the indescribable Emily Cooper always attracts the curious, and at least fashion. Because yes, Emilie is the meeting place of ease and fashion in Paris. So why are you avoiding your pleasure? The characters are all beautiful, well dressed and have only minor problems in life. Something takes away the mind!
