OVNI(s)

Hilarious for anyone old enough to remember the technology, the hippie communes and gurus, the space programs, and everything else about 1970's!

I'm watching with subtitles, and I'm so glad it's not dubbed, because you catch all of the sarcasm, cluelessness, affection, exasperation and what have you from hearing the French.

The whole thing is brilliant. I'm watching it all over again just for the music!

The GEPAN set is amazing and funny all by itself! It's rich with color, and the gadgets are ridiculous! Don't miss Vera's phone!

It links the actual French space program, Steven Speilberg, and people who can't figure out how to play their VCR. Where else can you find that?

Got to love the 70s and 80s era setting (fashion, tech gadgets, typewriters, punched card computers, typewriters, wonderful cars, etc..) !!

Space project first steps, fascination with possible life in outer space etc...

Great screenplay !

This comedy is endearing !

Great casting !

This is not the TV show of the year, but it is stable from the beginning till the end, without a sudden quality drop.

This is refreshing as it is a true French TV show, with all the cultural elements wrapped into it.

In brief, you're having a nice time, a nice family time.

By the way, the music (OST) is good too (i.e. Sweet electro).

This was a great random found. Never heard or saw anything about it and none of my friends knew it. So I expected nothing and was pleasantly surprised. The biggest plus is the shows extremely likeable cast of characters. Add a colorful setting in the 70s. Great music. Don't forget a mystery to be solved and funny situations. That makes for a show that is in stark contrast to other modern shows who are often dark, gritty and, to be honest, quite depressing.

This was a welcome change. I have not finished season 2 but there are only a few episodes left and i hope there will be more seasons to come.

I just finished Episode 1 and it was effortless to enjoy it, even with subtitles. Only 30 minutes goes by fast especially with good actors giving 100% to untypical dry humor. It's not campy or raunchy; it's good clean fun that lets us forget the horrors of the last year and the years coming; Even if we have to go back in time before all this madness took the fun out of life.

Thank you France!
