“See you! » The rallying cry of Fabienne Lepic, shouting in the stairwell, resounded on France 2 from 2007 to 2017. The first season, broadcast at 7 p.m. on Saturday, had however gone unnoticed. Rescheduled on Wednesday in prime time, the series created by Anne Giafferi and Thierry Bizot has conquered a loyal audience: 4.5 million viewers on average! Her secret: tackling education and couple issues in a funny and offbeat way.
Who hasn’t recognized themselves (or loved ones) in the little quirks of the Lepics and the Bouleys? On the one hand, “principled Catholics”, on the other, “cool sores”, all confronted with the joys and (especially) the pangs of parenthood: from the invasion of lice to tight school meetings, socks dirty that hang around the teenager who smokes in secret.
Irresistible Valerie Bonneton
If the series played a lot on the contrast between one and the other, it knew how to develop its characters, inject them with a touch of gentle madness, like the very stuck Renaud Lepic disguising himself as a superman or accepting that his son becomes poker player! Despite their differences, the two families will even end up uniting through the marriage of their children.
As screenwriters change, Do not do this, do not do that has had seasons that are more inspired than others, but the family Time.news has managed to avoid routine by sticking to the times and its sparkling dialogues have not aged a bit. The success is also due to the caustic acting of the quartet of actors: Valérie Bonneton (irresistible as a stay-at-home mother on the verge of a nervous breakdown), Guillaume de Tonquédec, Isabelle Gélinas and Bruno Salomone. Special mention awarded to young actors, their fictional children, whom we have seen growing up at the same time as ours.
On Apple TV (€2.49 per episode) and in DVD box set, ed. France Télévisions, €60.20, 9 seasons, 69 episodes of 52 minutes
