Do yourself a favor, watch episode 1, 4, 2, 3 and so forth. The order was changed but occurrences in number 4 are referred to in 2 and 3.
Now, the show is fairly dated, even for it's filming period. The majority of the cast is British, Irish and American... not much French while they're all supposed to be French. Accents and episode orders aside this was a good cop drama. Set in France, progressing through individual murder mysteries with a few small storyline running through the entire show.
The first few episodes are reasonably standalone and about midway through the story and tension start to build before culminating it what became the finale. The show was canceled despite Jean Reno being contracted into a second season. This was partly due to his thick accent and doubts about how the UK/American audiences would receive it. Definitely enjoyable.
