I really like Candice Renoir, the French police show. I'm so caught up in the characters, not to mention the scenery and plots. AcornTV has brought us all 10 seasons, and on Monday, October 28th, AcornTV, two Candice Renoir specials (Corsica & Halloween) will drop. These two specials make up what was previously billed in France as Season 11, although it's only two full length programs. Hopefully, we'll see more 'specials' in the future, but I wouldn't count on it.
Spoilers in descriptions. Read at your own peril.
Candice Renoir Corsica Special - Acorn TV Exclusive
Following their non-proposal, Candice and Antoine go on a honeymoon in Corsica. They spent their savings on a dream stay in a luxurious hotel on a beach with turquoise waters. During dinner, a man notices Candice in her pretty flowered dress and her bright laugh - but perhaps the attention is a little too much? Antoine gets into a fight with a man he thinks is a flirt, and the couple spends the night apart, deciding to go home. But the next day, the pseudo flirt is found dead in the trunk of the car.

Candice Renoir Halloween Special - Acorn TV Exclusive
Now a financial investigator, Candice is bored out of her mind. With Halloween approaching, she accompanies Antoine to pick pumpkins on a farm with his daughter, Suzanne. Attracted by a marmalade shop run by a witch, Candice forgets to watch over Suzanne and, a few seconds later, the child is kidnapped by Jack O' Lantern, the scarecrow from the field. There are numerous tracks but Candice, frustrated to no longer be a field investigator, can only act in secret.

I LOVE Candice! I am really looking forward to these two.
Corsica special is not like the series. Poorly directed with efforts at slapstick. Someone was influenced by “Some Like It Hot” … but not in a good way. I really liked Seasons 1-10 but if I had seen this first, I wouldn’t be a fan. Antoine is very bad; not a leading-man character. Too much makeup when not in drag. Without rest of cast Candice comes across as silly rather than quirky. Very disappointed.
