French series on Netflix: the 10 must-watches

Lupin, Call My Agent!, The Bonfire of Destiny, Marianne, Les Lionnes… The best French series on Netflix, with runtime and genre.

With Lupin Part 4 out on October 23, French TV is back in Netflix's global top 10. But the French catalog goes way beyond Assane Diop. Here are 10 must-watch French series for every taste and every schedule.

The phenomena

  1. Lupin: the gentleman thief, Omar Sy style. Part 4 (8 episodes) came out in late October 2026. Our guide.
  2. Call My Agent!: behind the scenes at a talent agency, with real stars playing themselves. Funny, tender and addictive.
  3. Les Lionnes (2026): a dramedy released in February 2026, one of the year's pleasant French surprises.

Dramas and thrillers

  1. The Bonfire of Destiny: the 1897 Paris fire and the fate of three women. Eight episodes, big-scale spectacle.
  2. Gone for Good: a Harlan Coben thriller shot in Nice. Five episodes, perfect for a Saturday.
  3. Tapie: the life of Bernard Tapie with Laurent Lafitte. Seven episodes.

For chills

  1. Marianne: a horror novelist haunted by her own characters. One of the scariest shows on the platform. Our horror picks.
  2. La Révolution: a dark, fantastical spin on the French Revolution. Eight episodes.

For laughs

  1. Family Business: a family of butchers turns their shop into a cannabis café. Absurd and lovable.
  2. Plan Cœur (The Hookup Plan): a Parisian rom-com in 30-minute episodes.
