I'm french, so maybe not totally impartial, but who is ?
I like the original french serie for its "peculiarity" as a cop serie and especially for the actress who plays Morgane : Audrey Fleurot. She is the only real main role who makes almost the whole show, meanwhile the others are kind of "Faire valoir" (lets translate that by "sidekick" or "show-offs").
Although I tried to give the american remake a chance, I think it misses this particular point by replacing it with a much more typical kind of flat collaboration and equality between the two characters (Morgan and Karadec).
So if, one day, the showrunners decide to give more space and flamboyance to Morgan, maybe it could reach the quality and humorous tone of the original.
But for now, my advice would be: give a try to the original serie, even if it is dubbed or subtitled, you won't regret it.
