Is it worth starting?
This is 3 seasons deep — French action & adventure, leaning drama, not one for younger kids. There's a lot of it, which is either the appeal or the problem depending on your week.
Don't watch this if…

- you want something that ends tonight — there are 3 seasons of it
- Why
- 7.3/10 from 97 ratings — well received so far, on a modest sample.
- Skip if
- you don't want to start something several seasons deep
- Best for
- A long run rather than a single sitting
