Profilage does not translate to "The Paris Murders"

First - Why change the name? Translate it if you really think it's necessary, but change it? What was the point of that?

Sadly, the first seasons weren't made available, but from where it started off I enjoyed it. Chloe was a quirky, fun character - with some issues that turn tragic - but still entertaining to watch. The story arc surrounding Adele, on the other hand, has become quite stale. The latest season available in the U. S. (2022) has ended with yet another improbable twist that extends her peril for another excruciating season. I was really hoping/expecting this season would see the last of 'Argos'. And we did, but apparently not his protege - Surprise! I don't think I'll be continuing with this series.

I like crime drama/procedurals, but I am exhausted from all the shows where the main character is the eternal focus of some demented sociopath and the highly improbable ways the writers contort the story to keep it going. Enough already.

And finally - why must my review be a minimum of 600 characters? Good writers can say more with less.
