Skam France

Skam France is part of a great revolution in European TV, bringing a fresh breath into "teenage" dramas. It's so raw and real without compromising its poetic and aesthetic dimensions. The format of the show really brings the viewer into the story and it does a wonderful job incorporating all the aspects of youth culture (instagram, messaging, all that jazz).

Full 10 for me. Yes the first season was good but not great. Second season was lovely and I fell in love with the characters. But season 3 is a whole other level. Its so beautifully done and the acting is amazing, and the music choice is lovely. I tell everyone to watch it because I just takes up most of the space in my brain because its THAT GOOD!

10/10 will always recommend.

At least when it comes to season 3. the acting, direction, score and chemistry is just off the charts - and eliott and lucas are by far the most relatable and... real "isak and even"s to me. they are incredibly close to my heart and i am so thankful for this show. this is what i would've needed in my teens instead of glee, so i'm really glad french and International teens will get to watch this now.

Season Three: 7/10

Themes: Drama, Friendship, High School, Romance, Lgbtq+, Gay Couple, Coming Out, Mental Health, Acceptance, Bipolar Disorder & French.

Top three characters: 1) Eliott Demaury, 2) Arthur Broussard and 3) Daphné Lecomte.

The first two seasons were quite good, although a bit too close to the original even if the differences in characterization were significant. The third season on the other hand is nothing short of extraordinary. The team has been granted creative freedom and the show finally exploits its potential to the fullest by creating its own mythology and symbolism. The lighting is exquisite and the music choices are very effective. As for the acting, Axel Auriant and Maxence Danet Fauvel are simply brillant. But more importantly Skam France is doing a great job at portraying French teenagers truthfully which is something lacking in French television! I am very excited for season four and really hope the show will get to have a few more seasons.
