Dix pour Cent Season 2 (Call my Agent!)
I really enjoyed season 1 of this very French series centered around an artist agency and its associates. French actors do cameos playing themselves, and there's something delightful in seeing them depict the failings of movie stars as themselves. Towards the end of season 1 though, the formulaic nature of the show and the slightly excessive reliance on misunderstandings and over the top story arcs had worn me down a bit. Watching season 2 I was super enthusiastic again at first, and as these same traits emerged again I started tiring. That's what's good about 6 episode seasons though: something may annoy you, but you still enjoy the good sides long enough to get to the end of the season. So not perfect, but really fun, exhilarating at times and slightly irritating as things go on. Still, amongst the best French TV has to offer.
