Les Anges

Les Anges is a peculiar beast in French television. It's a general channel, but it lacks the polish of TF1 or M6. The daytime lineup is a grab bag: one hour a cooking show, the next a dated sitcom rerun. No clear identity. The evening block tries harder, talk shows and reality fare with a distinctly French flavor. Production values are middling; sets look like they were built on a budget. If you want to watch Les Anges online, expect a mixed bag. The channel does find some rhythm in its late-night movie slots, where it occasionally unearths a cult French film you haven't seen in years. But the ad breaks are frequent and long. Still, for someone homesick for everyday French TV, it scratches an itch. Les Anges live is available on Tvivu for streaming. Don't expect groundbreaking content; it's background noise with occasional charm. General tv France doesn't get much more ordinary than this.
