HPI: Haut Potentiel Intellectuel - The French Crime Show Taking Over TV Across the Globe
🕵️‍♀️ A French police procedural… that’s taking over the world? HPI: Haut Potentiel Intellectuel, or High Intellectual Potential, is a massive hit in France, with over 280 million views across 105 countries—and now, it’s getting an American remake. But is the original actually worth watching? Or is this just another case of an overhyped foreign import?
In this episode, we dive into:
🔍 The show’s unique take on crime-solving (is it just Monk with more chaos?)
🎨 Why is the color palette so dull when the main character is so bold?
🤯 The wild backstory—missing husbands, genius IQs, and… a cleaning lady solving murders?
đź“ş Why HPI has been remade in multiple countries (not just the U.S.!)
