L'art du crime

As a family of artists and art historians, and lovers of mysteries and of Paris (!) this series ticks all the boxes! Nicholas Gob and Éléonore Gosset have such chemistry! Nice well-rounded characters. I first saw Gob in A French Village; he played a very complex character whom you hated, pitied, felt great compassion for...and hated again by turns...so I was excited to see that he would be in this series. So far, all the characters ring true for me. We're bingeing this on MHz, and hoping for season 3!

This series is hilarious! It reminds me a bit of the American show Castle. In that show the no nonsense detective was a woman and quirky consultant was a famous mystery writer/author who was a man. The series will definitely appeal to viewers who are art-buffs that also enjoy a good who-dunnit crime show. It's this intersection that gives the show it's edge. Each crime revolves around a classical painting or notable artist's work. I am geeky enough to want more on the art and less of the crime but honestly the show is nicely balanced. The two leads have great chemistry and if you enjoy French humor, this show is a delight. My French is passable enough but there are decent English subtitles and the French dialogue isn't super complex making it easy to follow. Action scenes aren't anything spectacular. It's your typical long shot of cops chasing after the fleeing suspect. Instead this is really a show about solving the crime - with the crimes being wonderfully inventive, and the criminal in some way being motivated by art or the sake of art. Overall quite an entertaining series!

More than a crime serie. This is the basic virtue of this admirable work. The second, the beautiful connection between lead actors. But the best part are the dialogues with the artists or the father looking Warhol - like or the passion of art critic or the demons of the cop. A great film , special at whole, giving more than murders or secrets but an inspired architecture of detail.

Could expect to learn or remember art in a funnier way.These series are one of the most beautiful shows has television produce.Don't junge me it's not a masterpiece but it's a very funny light educated serie.I enjoy see those 2 solving cases i like their chemistry and Im looking forward to see vincent and tolouse. Also I hope to see Rodin Rembrant Renoir Utrillo in the fututre....Good work guys keep on..

I wish they would keep it to art history and crime without the dumb romance. They wouldn't make a good couple and that's fine.
