Murder in Porquerolles

I enjoyed this episode in the Murder In... series. The leads had good chemistry and all the actors were full, well-rounded characters. I enjoy that French television casually shows things that American TV might shy away from: alternative religiion, cancer, non-traditional relationships. There are famous authors portrayed in their roles as everyday people. Also people, especially women, are allowed to age and to show their age.

The fact that I once described François Vincentelli as an incredibly attractive man and here he is only "ok" attests to his acting skills. Here he is knotted and up-tight, a single father trying to solve murders under pressure.

The plot and writing are good and i recommend this show. I watched this show on a streaming service called Hoopla which shows many of the MhZ network shows. It is a service you get through your public library and watch on a Roku or on your computer. Ask at your library if they have the service. Another fantastic show I watched on Hoopla was Captain Marleau. Please ignore the goofy art they put on the show title!
