That’s how I love you, season 2
This second chapter of That’s how I love you, imagined by François Létourneau, does not disappoint the fans. The intelligent writing of François Létourneau, capable of childish gags as much as finesse and sensitivity, is similar to that of the Coen brothers (Fargo, The Big Lebowski), but funnier. Really, François Létourneau, supported by directors Jean-François Rivard and Robin Aubert, makes great, great quality television.

Lou and Sophie
One of the most beautiful surprises of 2021, signed by Yannick Éthier (The cottage, The Academy). You don’t have to be a “young adult” to enjoy this Thelma and Louise new generation, which offers performances inspired by Jade Charbonneau and Zeneb Blanchet. In front of the lens of directors Sandra Coppola and Félix Tétreault, these actresses on the rise play two rebellious teenagers who live a story of close friendship.

The little kings
Discover the world of two best friends, Julep (Pier-Gabriel Lajoie) and Adaboy (Alex Godbout), at the top of the social pyramid at Queen Isabella College. But the golden lives of these two young adults – and their clique – take a disturbing turn when they start receiving threatening text messages. You don’t become so popular without making enemies. For fans of Riverdale, Elite and pretty Little Liars.

Free exchange
We weren’t convinced after one episode, but after four, we understand better why KOTV (Between two sheets) wanted to use this British format signed by Nick Hornby (About a Boy, Wild). Well chiseled, the dialogues are sometimes funny, sometimes incisive, and always intelligent. The adaptation work is also successful. The 10-minute episodes feature Louis Morrissette and Marie-Claude Guérin.

Alone
Alone, by documentary filmmaker Paul Tom, skilfully recounts the trajectories of Afshin, Alain and Patricia, who arrived in Canada as teenagers without a mom or dad to watch over them, like about 400 other young people each year. This touching film speaks as much of tearing as of hospitality.

Hold lounge
It is by watching the first four episodes of the second season of Hold lounge that I fell over backwards in front of what she described to me as a “socio-capillary series to promote living together that has allure”. But how could I miss this gem? It’s the most relevant thing I’ve seen on TV about today’s Quebec in ages. I laughed, I cried, I went to places I never go, I discovered great people, in short, I loved what I saw in there.
