Faz-me Rir

I did not expect to see such a low rating. In my opinion the show is worth watching, it has a nice pace, lovable characters who face realistic human problems, and the series makes you really root for them by the end. Plus it is really easy to watch.

I don't agree with the low rates. It was a bit of a surprise but I really found the script, actors and production very good. The personages face real life problems but the story is very light. They address family, friendship, work and love issues in a way that you can identify with and root for the personages. Paris as a background is a plus. The only thing wrong with it is that there are only six episodes, I can't wait for another season!

I watch a lot of shows, mostly because I can't sleep at night. I loved all the characters in this show, especially Nazir! They all have a certain grace, in their own way, even the supporting characters. And that's why I think this show is smart and well written, because you can identity with all the characters, even if they are very different from each others. 'Standing up' feels refreshing, funny but not superficial. Most of the shows that are new on Netflix, whether they are comedy shows, dramas, or other genre (I watch them all!), lack of something in my opinion. Inspiration or authenticity I suppose, so they are a non-chemical sleeping pill to me: after watching two episodes I fall asleep. This show kept me awake because I wanted to see more. I hope there will come another season, I will definitely watch it!

To be honest I started this series out of curiosity, and I found it very intriguing and funny. It starts off as a classic comedy series before touching and a lot of sensitive topics. The acting stuff was great and the location (Paris) was obviously amazing. Strongly suggested!

The biggest disappointment of this show is that it stops after 6 episodes. I want more! I'm french, I can tell the jokes don't translate perfectly, but my wife who is not french, still loves it. It's funny, it's touching, it's brillant and well interpreted. It makes me proud :)
