It's a great series.

That being said, it also helps to be studying French with other people. Practice is important. Once you get to a point of minimal understanding, it's also good to read French books, simple ones to start with, out loud.

Allain and other women in this show are absolutely gorgeous. -- I'm not at all fluent yet, but I'm working towards that and I hope to marry a French woman so that I can listen to that pleasing sound everyday.

French In Action is one of the best instructional television shows available. I've rented movies made in France and I try to not read the subtitles. That's not easy, but it still helps. French is such a beautiful language.
