What to watch on Netflix? Here are some ideas from the platform’s extensive catalog.
Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Chapter
I prefered Queen Charlotte to the two official chapters of The Bridgerton Chronicle, which stem from the literary saga of Julia Quinn. It’s less Harlequin, more contemporary, with a stronger political and feminist purpose, not at all boring.
Hugo Dumas
Beef
It’s delicious and the tone of this series oscillates brilliantly between dark humor and light comedy. The ten thirty-minute episodes of Beefoffered in French under the title ofrelentless, are devoured in a weekend. This is the show everyone is talking about and you really want to join this discussion.
Hugo Dumas
The Diplomat
We have been following Keri Russell’s career closely since Felicity. In The Diplomat, the actress camps there Kate Wyler, the new ambassador of the United States in the United Kingdom, who takes office in full international crisis… and matrimonial. A political drama rich in twists and solid all the way, which speaks of the tortuous relations, between countries and between spouses.
Marc-Andre Lemieux
The Night Agent
More or less believable, the scenario inspired by Matthew Quirk’s novel is nevertheless effective: we follow a junior FBI agent (Gabriel Basso) plunged into the heart of a dangerous plot, which must protect a young woman (Luciane Buchanan) from people with murdered his aunt and uncle. Released on March 23, the first season has been so successful that a sequel has already been announced for 2024.
Marc-Andre Lemieux
Luther – The Fallen Sun
Luther: The Fallen Sun is crude and exaggerated at times, but remains a breathless and somewhat unpredictable thriller, even if the outcome of the main plot elements can be guessed. The dynamic camera, nervous editing and anxiety-inducing music help to increase the tension. Idris Elba may never slip into a James Bond tuxedo, but we’d be happy to see him play John Luther for a long time to come.
Pascal LeBlanc
Emily in Paris, season 3
This third season ofEmily in Paris is still as bizarre as ever. The costumes are even more delirious, and this time, we give more space to the other characters in the series, which gives them a little more depth.
