Reception


The show received a mixed reception from the critics.
GQ magazine, despite some reservation about its special effect, praised the skill of the story-telling, the acting of the principal actors, as well as the soundtracks. It considered the show to be the best French series since the launch of Netflix and deserving of a second season. Télérama was highly critical, considering the series more laughable than a hit, and its music failed to hide its stylistic flaws. Premiere thought the series veered awkwardly between teen drama and its supernatural elements but was nevertheless successful stylistically. Based only on its first episode, the Decider found the series to be too muddled to continue watching a second episode.
