Abdelhafid Metalsi in ‘Cherif’ on MHz Choice
Season 5 of the light-hearted French TV police drama “Cherif” opens where Season 4 left off. Adeline (Carole Bianic) had been set up by her nemesis, Commandant Sylvie Delmas (Catherine Marchal) for a murder, with the evidence against her looking pretty solid. First order of business is for Captain Cherif (Abdelhafid Metasi) to whip up one of his off-the-wall game plans to save his partner. I won’t say how, but we all know he does.
My review of previous seasons of “Cherif” on this site was posted on June 6. Please scroll down through that review for background for this season.
As Season 5 progresses, Adeline’s ordeal throughout Season 4 has taken a toll. Despite her blossoming romance with Cherif, work is no longer the source of satisfaction it had always been. This leads to her departure, and puts Cherif into a funk. But a new homicide squad member,...

“Cherif” is a subtitled French mystery TV series set in Lyon, France, that ran for six years. Based on the episodes I’ve seen (the first and fourth seasons), it richly deserved that level of success. Cherif (Abdelhafid Metalsi) is a maverick police captain who exudes the sort of roguish charisma that plays well in any culture or context.
As the series begins, Cherif has been assigned a new partner, Adeline (Carole Bianic) – an uptight, by-the-book woman who is also new to Lyon, and unaccustomed to his unorthodox methods of dealing with suspects and witnesses.
