Bandidos Films

Adapted from Jorge Ibargüengoitia’s novel, this limited series dramatizes the rise of two sisters who build a brothel network hiding a chain of killings in mid-20th-century Mexico.

The French edition of the social-experiment dating format keeps the franchise’s core idea: singles connect, date, and even get engaged without seeing each other until the reveal. Episodes follow couples from pod conversations through post-engagement cohabitation and the countdown to decision day, tailored here to French participants and settings.

Hosted by Olympic champion Teddy Riner and presenter Luthna Plocus, the series is produced locally (ITV Studios France is associated with the format’s adaptation). Season 1 launches on Netflix this week, joining the franchise’s expanding international slate.

‘Kiss or Die’ (2025)

The premise blends variety-show rhythms with spoof-drama framing to heighten the game’s stakes.

On-screen talent includes Gekidan Hitori, Tetsuya Morita, and Takashi Watanabe. The format arrives on Netflix this week, drawing on creator-producer Nobuyuki Sakuma’s variety-show lineage, with Kyodo Television credited in materials tied to the launch.

Developed by Dustin Ferrer, the show is produced with Atomic Cartoons with executive producers Ferrer, Steve Conner, and Susan Brandt for Dr. Seuss Enterprises. Voice roles feature Brian Drummond as Red, Andrea Libman as Blue, and Naomi Tan as the narrator; the series premieres on Netflix this week.
