takes us from the glitzy upper-class world of luxury hotels and
mansions to local bourgeois bistros and bars and the underground haunts
of the professionally criminal. Maigret is an unconventional young
detective with something to prove the Police Judiciaire, relentless in his
investigations, with a matchless
knowledge of Paris and its inhabitants.
Faithfully and lovingly married to Madame Maigret (Stefanie Martini), Maigret heads the elite police unit known as La Crim, responsible for investigating all serious crime in and around Paris.

So far, I haven't found a French series that I enjoy...for detective stories, I will stick to British one.
ReplyDeleteThis is a British one, just set in Frankreich.
DeleteAnd they had brought Maigret from the 50s to the XXI century
DeleteYes, too bad for that, we would have preferred it period set.
DeleteI do like some police type shows.
ReplyDeleteParis setting should be very lovely.
DeleteAs I'm an oldie I remember the vintage BBC show with Rupert Davies. The actor doesn't look like book Maigret. Then I'm not familiar with his works so he may have the acting chops.
ReplyDeleteHe is not overly good in acting at least he wasn't in the latest Belgravia season 2 series but he is cute and has something handsome about him.
