- Because of the coronavirus, the filming of Plus Belle La Vie was put on hold in March.
- After destocking all of its episodes, France 3 is obliged to offer reruns from May 4.
- The editorial staff of 20 Minutes offers you four ideas to survive the lack.
This time, it's the right one… The Coronavirus will have got the better of Plus Belle La Vie . However, the series has seen it go from deprogramming, from the World Championships in Athletics to the Olympic Games through Roland Garros. But faced with the scale of the health crisis, the daily soap opera of France 3 draws the curtain for an indefinite period, filming having been interrupted in mid-March.
From Monday, May 4, the public channel will offer its viewers to review episodes of season 11, broadcast in the summer of 2015. We will follow the tumultuous story of Noham and Estelle, and the end of his relationship with Djawad , one of the fans' favorites. If you are not one of those who want to immerse yourself in this intrigue, perhaps one of the following options should appeal to you.
Make infidelities (without shouting it too much on the roofs)
Even if they are not broadcast at the same time, there is an intrinsic war on the daily soap operas of the first three channels. What do you want ? Some prefer the stories of Luna and Andrès to those of Chloé and Alex… And the war of the audience is sometimes exported to viewers who swear to remain faithful to their favorite series. But why deprive yourself of additional pleasure potential when the period of confinement is already, by definition, synonymous with restriction?
We dare to tell you, it is possible to love both Tomorrow Belongs to us , Un Si Grand Soleil and Plus Belle La Vie . We grant it, it takes time, about an hour and a half per day, if we want to follow assiduously the adventures of Sète, Montpellier and Marseille. Why not take advantage of this slack period to discover the small competitors of his favorite soap? Good plan alert: season 1 of Tomorrow We Belong is available on Amazon Prime Video. With 26 minutes on average for the first 246 episodes, this should keep you busy for a hundred hours. Shall we start a marathon?
Take things back from the start
Doing without Plus Belle La Vie is like staying at home while the sun is shining outside in the middle of confinement: it hurts. But the end of the diffusion of the unpublished episodes of the series does not necessarily rhyme with deprivation of its daily dose. If a good number of viewers will choose to review the plot proposed by France 3, some fans of the series have decided to take the lead by organizing their own broadcast on their side. For at least six weeks, a surfer will put online the very first episodes of season 1. A leap back 16 years to play the card of nostalgia, that's a comforting idea in this period of confinement.
Embark on a detox cure
Plus Belle La Vie , it started on August 29, 2004. So more than fifteen years ago. And yet, you have been faithful to the meeting for all these years. Take five minutes to think about the number of times your parents, spouse or children have kept repeating this same question over and over: "But when do you stop looking at" La Vie Trash "? (Name deposited by a relative of the editor of this article).
This is a real question that can be asked by fans: when to stop watching the series? After 4,050 episodes, it's too late to drop out of weariness. Plus Belle La Vie is part of everyday life, and everyone looks at it in their own way, whether it is in advance, live during the meal, replay the next morning at breakfast ... Realize: those who have never missed a single episode of the soap opera spent the equivalent of 67 days in front of the small screen. A dizzying number that puts into perspective the goal of his own life, and which allows one to ask a question. As Charles Aznavour said (almost) so well: "What have we done in our 67 days? "
Comfort with a good dose of Marseille
What if what we were going to miss the most in the weeks to come was Roland's singing accent? But yes, what would Plus Belle La Vie be without its 365 days of good weather a year, "la Bonne Mère" and the Prado beaches? Head to Netflix and the Cinémathèque to make up for the lack of dopamine by finding other productions shot in Marseille.
Side series, you could try the Marseille adventure available on Netflix, although it is not the best series on the platform, far from it. On public service, why not catch up with Cain , as well as La Stagiaire , both touring the city. If you are more feature films than series, you should find your happiness thanks to La French , with Jean Dujardin and Gilles Lellouche, or Un prophète by Jacques Audiard, César 2010 for Best Film. In another vein, there remains the timeless saga of Taxi , the last part of which came out just two years ago. Have a nice trip !
