Call My Agent! (French: Dix pour cent|lit=Ten Percent) is a French comedy-drama television series that premiered on France 2 on 14 October 2015. The series depicts talent agents at the fictional agency ASK (French: Agence Samuel Kerr) and their relationships with their actor clients, who are real, mainly French, celebrities playing themselves. It won Best Comedy Series at the 49th International Emmy Awards.[1] Following the success of French: Dix pour cent in France, Netflix bought it in 2015 and renamed it Call My Agent![2] It was initially planned that the television series would end after its fourth season in 2020, but in April 2021, it was announced that the show would return with a 90-minute TV film followed by a fifth season.[3] Call My Agent! has been broadcast by ICI ARTV in Canada, TG4 in Ireland, RTS Un in Switzerland and is available worldwide on Netflix, except in Spain, Poland[4] and Portugal.
The series follows four agents who jointly take control of a fictional talent agency (ASK, French: Agence Samuel Kerr) after the death of its founder and head. The agents attempt to manage film production crises arising from their stars' egos, financial and legal difficulties, and other complications, while also maintaining rivalries with one another for power and prestige. Most episodes focus on a single actor, their agent, and the production of a film in which they are starring. The series also depicts the agents' private lives, and how they are affected and often harmed by their busy and stressful professional lives.
They appear as themselves, in most cases for a single episode.
