Season 4 of the French series Ten percent was awarded Monday evening at the International Emmy Awards, an American consecration for this humorous story on the agencies of film stars and which benefited from the huge Netflix springboard.
The series, launched in 2015 on France Television, won the best comedy by the academy of the International Emmy Awards which for half a century has recognized the best television productions outside the United States. The authors and producers of Ten percent, renamed Call my Agent in the United States, were in New York for the occasion and the writer of the first three seasons Fanny Herrero praised the fact that the series had “really traveled the world thanks to Netflix, so it’s a great accomplishment “.
Over four seasons, the series follows the destiny of a small Parisian agency, ASK, where viewers discover the vagaries and difficulties of this shadowy profession, at the service of actors and actresses. With this particularity: in each episode, the real stars play their own role with a good dose of humor and self-mockery. For Fanny Herrero, the series is certainly “quite French, but not only. (…) It’s a bit worked with an American spirit. We have sometimes compared it to comedies à la Lubitsch which are fanciful. Self-mockery is not so French, ”she explains.
