I was recently recommended Balthazar (French) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9293466/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_3
But I've not seen it myself yet.

Do you think people on French and German Forums are asking the same question about English spoken Shows?
Not international but I really enjoyed Knives Out and there’s a sequel planned. Kenneth Branagh’s murder on the Orient Express is also quite good as modern murder mysteries go and there’s also a remake of death on the Nile coming as well.
I watched a couple of episodes of “Maman a tort” in Amiens, at a French cousin’s house, I think that it was called “The Other Mother” on U.K. TV, his wife asked did we get anything like that in Angleterre.
I said that we try, and some stuff was really good, like “Dublin Murders” and “Liar”, but stressing that I’m not a TV buff, I said that I hadn’t seen anything on Brit TV that could match “Maman a tort.”
Of course, this was just my opinion, and in no way a slur on U.K. TV.
