During the last few weeks, French series have made a lot of noise. And in view of those arriving in 2020, the excitement is not likely to drop any time soon. Here's a short recap of French series already available and some that are coming soon.

Le bazar de la charité

This mini-series about the fire at the Bazar de la Charité in Paris in 1897, which was broadcast on TF1, thrilled the audience throughout its four weeks of prime-time broadcasting. And good news for those who haven't seen it yet, the series arrives on Netflix on December 26th!

Mortal

Netflix's first 'young adult' series, Mortal, is the story of three youngsters, Sofiane, Victor and Luisa, who find themselves bound together by an uncontrollable supernatural force. Uniting their newfound voodoo powers, they will do everything they can to find Sofiane's brother. This first season immediately plunges us into a fantastic world. The special effects are great and so are the actors. A French series worthy of an American series.

Prise au piège

Adapted from the Spanish series "Vis a vis", the series follows Anna Rivière, falsely accused of the murder of a computer scientist in her company. Anna then finds herself plunged into the prison world. Elodie Fontan (Babysitting, Clem...) is perfect in the lead role and the incessant twists and turns keep us on tenterhooks.
