I need to practice my French skills more but most French content that's popular like now like Lupin just seems boring I need shows that are addictively good but also available with English subs
Please no meme recommendations.
I need recommendations for great French shows.
Just watch French talk shows.
that frame is so fucking funny
Don't do that, they speak butchered French. And they're certainly not subbed.
We don't really have good shows but we have lots of great movies.
learn about biology too while you're at it
Enjoy.
This is the only answer. Kaamelott is kino of the highest order. I would not recommend a single french show to a foreigner honestly, except this one. Alexandre Astier is a national treasure. The show exists in this weird place where the first season is five minute skits designed to be inserted between the commercial break and the next program, but it was so successful that they kept making the episodes longer and by the later seasons it's fourty minute episodes, but somehow the tone stays consistent. It's really unique, and it's also super funny.
As far as I remember the last few seasons turned into a depressing dark drama with everyone falling apart
True, but the characters don't change to fit the new mood of the show. They're still the same people, just in different circumstances
"end of kaamelott is le bad" is kind of a normie meme. He thought he had made enough comedy with it and wanted an actual arc for his characters and some drama, that's his right.
which made it K I N O
I haven't watched the movie yet, I assume it's even more bleaker in a Sátántangó way
I never enjoyed that unfunny crap. To think that's what replaced Camera Café...
Congratulation for your shit taste, contrarianfag.
I'm around muslims who speak french, of course they always teach you the bad things first:
>Je vais te foité le petit que
>Now go say this to her anon.
I didn't understand what I was saying, but I knew I wasn't offering her roses. Anyways, we had some fun with the guys teaching me some words and I would just say them.
>Que
Did you mean cul?
This is why french sucks, you cannot rely on sounds alone, random letters appear outta nowhere.
here the confusion is mostly because English has a different way of pronouncing vowels than all other Indo-European languages.
true but french is retarded too since they don't pronounce half of the letters and have a faggy accent. I pretty much understand good part of written french just because I know italian, but when they open their mouths is a completly different language, even english isn't as big of a discrepancy.
And I would argue that french needs a reform, because if you have words with letters that you need to not say, maybe it would be better to write words without them at all in the first place
different orthographs have different meanings even when they are pronounced exactly the same. that's the point. if we simplified it it would end up like simplified Chinese.
The French downright refuse anything that isn't in french. They browse the internet in french, their appliances are in French. I'm a Belgian, so our computers come in English. Not for the French, Oh no. Everything has to come in French for them or they shortcircuit. It's a victory for them once they understand 'On/Off/. I'm not exaggerating.
you are def exaggerating, you described Québecois, not French people
He's actually not that far off pêh. I think we have collectively not gotten over not being the world's lingua franca anymore
The whole world calls it a computer. It's a computer. "I don't understand.". Sigh. Le Ordinateur. "Perfect, now I understand you, why didn't you say it sooner?"
>t. flamand qui a toujours mal au cul après la domination linguistique du français sur son pays
Larping flamouche.
Then again, even a flamouche would have better French. You're probably Québécois.
Discovery of the lost bidet.
Is a story about a french lerning how to not have a smelly ass, and teaching his subhuman nationals to install them in their homes so they don't go around smelling like shit
Is it actually a good way to improve your language ability just by watching tv shows? I've always found I just end up reading the subs and not really processing what I'm hearing when I've tried in the past.
Either have the subtitles in French, or don't have subtitles.
Okay, I'll try without english subs. Not sure my French is good enough to understand without pausing every 2 secs yet though.
Then you're not at a point where watching shows in French will really be useful for you.
>using subs
why you are such a homosexual? You shouldn't rely on them and is a good way to train your ear more than learning the language (if you don't stop every 2 seconds to look up the words), you should do listening after you have a firm grasp of the written language, doing it with subs on is basically useless
>No te mettas en mi camino!
That's Predator 2. I always thought South America was cool for subbing and not dubbing. I didn't expect that.
French, Germans, Italians are all horrible. They dub.
It depends on the theater, most will show dubbed but with subbed showings in between.
The only country I have seen where absolutely everything is subbed and not dubbed is China.
>The only country I have seen where absolutely everything is subbed and not dubbed is China.
That's very unexpected.
I watched so many movies when I was over there, didn't even need to check if it was subbed since they don't bother dubbing most of the time.
I think it's because too many dialects, so it's easier to make one or two sub tracks than record a dozen different dubs.
Some of the old school porn scenes got dubbed. I shit you not. There would be a French girl getting fucked and she got a dub in German for the moaning.
Some of the Spanish I learned came from movie subtitles. People wouldn't realize, but I would just say a movie line to them.
>Wow, you speak Spanish?
>Hasta Luego
>They dub.
it's called protecting your own cultural language instead of having zoomers that put 50 english words in a sentence, call it a sort of trade block
I'd say the opposite. Dubbing is making something more palatable as to where subbing helps you realize you are watching something exotic and should leave it as is.
>Les Visiteurs
>Le Grande Vadrouille
>but anon, those are movies, not shows!
>I don't care. They're kino, you should watch them.
this thread is now occupied by germany
Wrong flag
My french teacher always recommended Call My Agent and said it was funny but I couldn't get into it.
The Bureau, it's a bit like Homeland.
One of the best spy shows is actually French
This here is very good but most of the jokes are probably hard to translate
i will not watch anything with kassovitz in it
I was planning to watch The Bureau
Whenever a thread is made about France you've got 8 foreign retards with a hateboner and 2 frenchies
Watch Quebec shows, much closer to american sensibilities and you're more likely to hear that kind of french in the US. Les Bougons is hilarious.
My wife in the middle
Is that Chris Chan?
No, but the character is slightly less retarded. iirc, he dreams of fucking his prostitute sister at one point.
i enjoyed au service de la france
the soundtrack is made by one guy from the AIR duo iirc
if you're into detectives i can recommend Engrenages. Now i quit after season 4. So I can't vouch for the latter seasons. But i think season 1-3 are really good. Season 4 was shit imo. Which is why i quit.
you cold watch Capitaine Marleau but it's full of puns. the interesting part is that Marleau speaks (mostly) as somebody would in real life while all other characters speak the standard unnatural contrived French of TV and movies. she makes a lot of puns though.
Like removing the "t" & "h" in "the" ?
what do you mean?
Kaamelott
