Call My Agent!

“French comedy (dramedy??) about a misfit group of talent agents in Paris. A gem and criminally underseen in the US”

“A French dramedy (?) about the employees of a talent agency in Paris. So fun but not simpleminded or formulaic. A delight!”

“All-time best!”

“French tv show with amazing actors. This series tells the story of a talent agency specializing in film and how its employees operate. With a 10 percent cut from every contract, we see the competitive spirit, the backstabbing, but also strong friendships—and how work life has become indistinguishable from social life. We also get a behind-the-scenes look at the making of a film, with actors and actresses playing themselves (the cast features a lineup of actors and actresses who are super famous—mainly in France—and who all give superb performances). It’s funny, smart, and well-written (especially in the first few seasons). And you quickly grow attached to all the characters—all of whom are a bit like everyday anti-heroes—and in the end, they’re very human.”

“Yes! Loved this so much”

“I watched all 4 seasons on Kanopy with subtitles but they are streaming elsewhere and a film comes out on Netflix soon. Come on!! I’ve also seen a couple of Laure Calamy’s films. She’s a great actor”
