Weeknight Watchearly rating

Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With a small audience and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for anyone who wants a laugh.
The mood: Provocative satire that goes after everyone.
The pace: One season: easy to finish in a weekend or two, short, snackable episodes, about 5 hours in all.
What might put you off: It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

For nine weeks, thirteen contenders will have to compete in a beautiful villa to try to seduce Marc, an airline pilot, looking for love. Which of these women will manage to light the flame?
