Alexandra Ehle is a French Forensic Drama created in 2018. The first season counts four episodes, each one of them being one hour and a half long.Alexandra "Alex" Ehle (Julie Depardieu) is a red-headed French thanatologist and coroner who examines corpses (including cut off limbs) of murdered people at the forensic institute of Bordeaux. She's brilliant but quirky and stubborn, and has to work with a young trainee, Théo Durrel (Xavier Guelfi). The police officer she collaborates with happens to be her brother Antoine.Théo quickly finds out that Alexandra doesn't like to limit herself to working in her forensic lab, she always jumps in to investigate cases in the field without authorization, much to her brother's chagrin.

Man Bites Man: In order to make up an excuse in the second episode, Alexandra bites Théo's hand when the IGPN inspector and Antoine spot them at the hospital where they went to ask questions to colleagues of a dead doctor, after being warned by Antoine not to investigate anymore. Alexandra pretends it was a dog that bit Théo's hand.

Vomiting Cop: Théo gets nauseous in the first episode upon seeing a lone cut off leg on the crime scene. It gets worse when studying the leg at the lab.

Sherlock Scan: Alexandra doesn't listen to people. She observes how they dress, how they talk, how they move, and deduces plenty of things as if they were open books.

Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!
 Alexandra Ehle / int_440d1d0b
comment
Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: If Alexandra feels she has to do some things she doesn't have the right to do out of professional ethics (such as doing more than her coroner job), she'll do it anyway if she feels it is crucial to solve a case.

Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: Alexandra is the foolish sibling who investigates cases way outside her morgue and without being allowed to do so, and Antoine is a By-the-Book Cop and thus the responsible sibling.

Unrequited Love: Théo tries several times to woo Alexandra, and fails all the time. She easily sees through it and ends up with a "Here he goes again..."-like sigh every time.

By-the-Book Cop
 Alexandra Ehle / int_8cb4ea46
comment
By-the-Book Cop: Alexandra's brother Antoine. He always follows procedures, and Alex is always one step ahead of him in investigations as a result. That his sister doesn't follow the procedures annoys him to no end and causes him troubles with his hierarchy more than once, although he always ends up letting her proceed.

Da Chief: Antoine's boss reprimands him in the second episode, specifically because the fact that Alexandra borrowed a card of his for a Bavarian Fire Drill attracted a ruthless bureaucratic hunter of Dirty Cops from the IGPN (the general inspection of French police services).

Due to the Dead: At the end of the first episode, Alexandra sews the murdered woman's pieces back together so her husband can mourn her. Moreover, she became a coroner precisely to do that kind of things after the trauma she endured when her father was murdered in a car bombing.

Amateur Sleuth: Alexandra and Théo investigate cases way beyond their simple forensic lab work, and without authorization. This includes criminal profiling and pretending they are police officers to ask questions to witnesses, closed ones of the victims or people they suspect.

Embarrassing Ringtone: Alexandra uses an American police siren as her cellphone's ringtone. Viewers who are used to watch American cop shows might be confused for a few seconds. Antoine uses Chopin's Funeral March as ringtone.
