Dix pour cent | comment |
Dix pour cent ("Ten Percent", renamed Call My Agent! abroad) is a French comedy series that began airing in 2015 on France 2, although Netflix now owns the distribution rights in most countries. It centers on talent agents Andrea Martel, Mathias Barneville, Gabriel Sarda and Arlette Azémar, along with their assistants Camille Valentini, Hervé André-Jezak and Noémie Leclerc, and receptionist Sofia Leprince, in the agency ASK (Agence Samuel Kerr). The series follows their adventures as they manage the careers, whims and problems of their protégés in exchange for ten percent of their earnings (hence the French title of the series). The first episode ends with the abrupt death of their boss, which puts the agency in jeopardy.The series is notable for having famous guest stars playing fictional version of themselves as the talents managed by ASK. Expect lot of self-parody and jokes about French cinema and the entertainment industry in general.Dix Pour Cent was originally set to conclude with its fourth season, which aired in the fall of 2020; however, a few months later, a spinoff feature-length film as well as a follow-up fifth season were announced. (As of late 2023, it seems like the film is finally set to go into production.) | |

Dix pour cent / int_1759ff85 | comment |
Four-Philosophy Ensemble: Arguably the four agents in their relationships towards their jobs and filmmaking more generally. Matthias is the cynic, an adept backstabber whose only objective is to make money regardless of any artistic considerations. Andréa is an optimist with a deep love of cinema and strong ideals that drive her to create great film projects. Gabriel is the realist as he cares the most about his actors' well-being and careers. Arlette is the apathetic, whose job objectives are not given much characterization beside being old-fashioned. | |

Hidden Depths: In season 4, it's revealed that Hervé has a natural talent for acting that nobody (least of all him) suspected. Then again, given his personality, perhaps it's not all that surprising. Noémie is a better fit for producing a film with her administrative focus than Mathias, who really hasn't moved on from being an agent. | |

Noodle Incident | |
Dix pour cent / int_3c0a4666 | comment |
Noodle Incident: Sofia's musical film with Julian Doré The Orgasm of the Ocean. Aside from its almost defiantly strange plot, it apparently contains explicit sex and full-frontal nudity as well as stuffed animals in place of real ones (because the budget was so low). Though a scene from the movie is shown in season 3, most of its many horrors are left to the imagination of the audience. Eventually it bombs big time—even Doré's family decide to skip it—though it seems that the soundtrack was at least moderately successful. For his part, Doré takes the film's failure in stride, chalking the whole thing up to an In-Universe case of True Art Is Incomprehensible. Sofia, on the other hand, is far more upset. | |

Zany Scheme | |
Dix pour cent / int_3c51db1c | comment |
Zany Scheme: Many of the episode's workplace plots are about the agents trying various ill-fated plots to make their actors cooperate with the directors, screenwriters, etc—and sometimes working at cross-purposes. Special mention goes to their plot to convince American producers who had an exclusive contract with Isabelle Huppert that a concurrently-filmed scene in a French movie was done by another actress named Isabelle Huppert—in actuality a nurse they pass off as a "small-town actress" from a medical drama—because everyone knows French filmmakers have strange artistic ideas. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The final season ends with ASK closing its doors for good, but with all of the agents having promising future prospects. Specifically, Camille decides to start her own agency with help from her father and Arlette; Mathias and Noémie move into film production; Gabriel goes to work for Star Média (but insists he'll be a spy for Camille's agency); Sofia and Hervé pursue their promising acting careers, and Andrea...gets a bit of rest. | |

Characterization Marches On | |
Dix pour cent / int_479f9ad0 | comment |
Characterization Marches On: Season 1 Andréa is more hotheaded and impulsive than she would end up being. In Season 2, she's still an aggressive go-getter, but her characterization starts revolving more around her workaholism, and she shows an ability for manipulation and canny tactics that is nearly on level with that of Mathias. Some of the traits that were dropped from Andréa's character were later applied to Hicham, who is introduced in Season 2. Noémie comes across as being rather stuck-up and prissy in the early episodes. When she began to get more screen time and her relationship with Mathias was explored in more detail, these traits fell by the wayside, while her emotional, neurotic nature and Cloudcuckoolander tendencies were emphasized. She also gained a previously-unknown interest in eastern philosophies. | |

Not What It Looks Like: Virgine Efira is photographed kissing another man during a media tour that is focused around the strong, mutually supportive relationship she has with her partner Ramzy Bédia. She insists to Mathias that it was a friendly kiss (on the mouth) and that "the angle makes it look worse." Later, she and Mathias are photographed together late at night because she's crashing at the agency after the break-up. This one really was innocent, as he was just taking her arm to get her off the balcony because she was throwing things at the paparazzi. But in the wake of finding out about Camille, the tabloid photographs convince his wife to get a divorce. | |

Large Ham: Andréa, Hervé and Noémie all stand out as this (albeit for different reasons). Deconstructed with Hervé's Season 3 crush Valentin, who is trying to pursue an acting career. Unfortunately he's an awful actor, severely overplaying every scene he tries and often shouting for no reason. | |

Method Acting | |
Dix pour cent / int_8ee370b6 | comment |
Method Acting: In-Universe. Jean Dujardin gets so deep into his role as a World War I deserter that he signs the contract for his next film as his character (and apparently drags the document across the forest floor). When Andréa visits, he's living under some trees in his yard, still killing rabbits and in his same filthy, unwashed, unshaven state. Even after she and his wife get him drunk and clean him up, Dujardain doesn't snap out of it until he bites a director's dog for going after his old coat. | |

National Stereotypes: Or French Regional Stereotypes... Lampshaded. The morally challenged Finance government officer that Andréa bribes to avoid the finance audit of ASK is of course from the Hauts-de-Seine, a very wealthy département west of Paris well-known for its corrupt politicians. Also Camille's mother. She is feisty and slightly overbearing, with a heavy south-eastern French accent (that Camille apparently did not inherit), and fails to understand why her daughter would leave the sunny Mediterranean seaside (and her) to go anywhere else. | |

Lost in Translation: American and British viewers might find it odd that nobody bats an eye when Hervé introduces himself with Camille's name when they are pretending to be the same agent in Season 3. Although the name "Camille" is used exclusively for girls in the Anglophone world, it's considered a unisex name in France. The many gags that play on French pop-culture jokes and memes (e.g. people constantly calling Franck Dubosc "Patrick" in reference to his character Patrick Chirac from the Camping comedy films) don't translate easily to other countries and cultures. | |

The Diva | |
Dix pour cent / int_e2d47c | comment |
In season 4, it's revealed that Hervé has a natural talent for acting that nobody (least of all him) suspected. Then again, given his personality, perhaps it's not all that surprising. | |

Gasp! | |
Dix pour cent / int_e542a41c | comment |
Gasp!: This is the reaction of everyone at the boardroom table when Hicham gets mad at Andréa and throws a pencil at her as though they're both children on the playground. When he turns up later to talk about how he's trying to be professional, she throws one at him. | |

Malicious Misnaming | |
Dix pour cent / int_edeafb2e | comment |
Malicious Misnaming: Hicham, who knows Andréa from childhood, has a habit of ignoring her professional name of "Martel" and calling her by her true name of "Marteau" ("hammer") when he's mad at her or trying to get a rise out of her. | |

Corner of Woe | |
Dix pour cent / int_f42f2adc | comment |
Corner of Woe: Following his separation from Sofia, Gabriel retreats into his office, closes all of the blinds and apparently does little apart from gorging himself on his can of whipped cream. His professional performance winds up suffering so much that Hicham finds it necessary to monitor his work. | |
