Candice Renoir

I love this series. I managed to binge-watch both seasons in 3 days. The cast is wonderful, every single one of them. I was afraid when the first pathologist left, I wouldn't like the replacement. Wrong! The humor isn't forced, but makes you laugh aloud. No, the police work isn't the best, but who really cares. This is much more about the people than anything else.

I know that 8 seasons of Candice Renior were made. Acorn is only showing two of them now. Step it up, Acorn. I really want to see the other six.

Finally detective series with some humor and overall optimistic. And NO super science power, NO magic autopsy labs or experts, NOTHING gross. It's such a refreshing sip of water compared to all the dark grey depressive detective series currently released. And yes, there are some other detective series which "should be funny", but none of those have made me laugh out loud, cover my eyes and smile or watch 2 seasons in a row, nearly skipping night sleep. In other words - I'm a fan!

I was in the mood for a series that was somewhat light, but which would keep my interest. This police procedural - too often they are heavy and dark - but with some humor, fit the bill perfectly. I love that this police captain's subordinates keep playing her for a blonde bimbo idiot, but she's always 2 or 3 steps ahead of them. I also find Cecile Bois (who plays Candice) to have a mesmerizing face (somewhat chameleon in the sense of constantly changing appearance -just my opinion- and a very likeable - and intelligent - personality). Finally persuaded my wife to watch and she also loves it. So this is my 2nd time through all 5 seasons. We'd like to see Acorn air additional Cecile Bois movies and series in their lineup. Just a superb actress (as is the whole cast in this series).

I'm watching Candace Renoir season 2 on Acorn in the United States. Acorn only offers two season but this show has 8 seasons. Where can I watch Seasons 3 to 8? I like the Actors and the way the shows are written! Great show!

To everyone outside of Europe: this is not your average police show, it's, as the title suggests, a show about a woman called Candice Renoir who happens to be a police detective and a mother of four. She's quirky, colorful, chaotic and very skilled at her job. She's also trying to live her life after the divorce from her charming cheat of a husband. She succeeds, trips and falls. She learns and moves on. That's the secret of this show for me: you see her grow, scars included, warts and all. It's not always pleasant for her, but a treat to watch for the excellent cast and a scenery that's to commit a crime for.
