It was made for French TV in the 1970s but the action takes place in the early 1800s and the historical context is firmly rooted and believable. Each episode in the series has great rhythm, good actors, and 3 recurrent characters that stand out in their personality or charm: Vidocq, inspector Flambart and the incomparable baronne de Saint Gely. in 2020, I think it is still good writing and quality entertainment for what it aimed to be : a TV family show with nothing offensive and plenty of suspense.
