Version of "Rumours" (2006)

Absolutely brilliant!

This show is beyond praise. Although i'm a french speaking quebecer, I stay away from french language sitcoms, which are often pretty lame. Rumeurs is sooooooooo much an exception to this rule. I missed the fisrt season on the air but I caught one episode on VHS and since then i'm hooked.

The casting is a cross section of the best Quebec actors, the writing is witty, the direction is superb - in short, this is a little gem. For the same reasons, this show would translate very badly... sorry folks, this is not the next Seinfeld.

I got the show on DVD and it sits proudly between my Buffy and my NYPD sets :-)
