La Minute Nécessaire de Monsieur Cyclopède

La Minute Nécessaire de Monsieur Cyclopède (1982-1984)

EndedVariety showComedy

"We can laugh at everything, but not with everyone" said Pierre Desproges at the time of the Tribunal des flagrants delirious. By creating for television The Necessary Minute of Monsieur Cyclopède, in 1982, because he does nothing between 8:33 p.m. and 8:35 p.m., he proves the opposite to the whole of France. Every night he divides the country into indignant fools and happy fools. History, doctors, democracy, science, death, racism, in one minute, he goes through various provocative subjects, with logical demonstrations but always based on the absurd. We find there his inimitable verve, his good words, his cynicism, but above all a devastating humor.

The Newsreader

In the maelstrom of a commercial television newsroom in 1986, Dale Jennings is a diligent young reporter, desperate to become a newsreader. Helen Norville is a notoriously ‘difficult' star newsreader determined to build credibility. Paired together over three months, Dale and Helen will cover an extraordinary chain of news events — from the shock of the Challenger explosion, to the hype of Halley's Comet, to the complexities of the AIDS crisis. From messy beginnings, a deep bond is formed that will upend their lives and transform the very fabric of the nightly news bulletin. This is a story of a grand, unconventional relationship in a world on the cusp of change.
