Comedy shows are always the best to watch as they make us laugh and release the stress of life. ‘Huge In France’ is one of those shows that have made millions laugh as this comedy show is partially based on famous French comedian Gad Elmaleh‘s life. Elmaleh is not only the series’s co-creator but also the lead actor. The show is about him giving up on his fame in France only to start a new life in America in the hope of reconnecting with his son, who does not care about his existence. We can call this show a semi-autobiographical one knowing the fact that Elmaleh did move to New York from France in real life. The show is created by Gad Elmaleh, Andrew Mogel, and Jarrad Paul and directed by Andrew Mogel.

Although Gad Elmaleh also noted that there might be a second season happening, nothing official as of yet is confirmed. However, there have been recent reports that the show has been canceled. All the evidence points to the show being canceled so we are going to list Huge in France as CANCELED
What Is The Storyline?
As mentioned earlier, Gad is known as “France’s Jerry Seinfeld”; however, he also knows that he is nothing but a common man in the US. He left France and everything he had, including fame and status, to make things work between him and his son Luke. While Luke considers Jason as his only father, Gad tries to win his attention, trust, and affection by plotting against Jason with the help of his assistant Brian. The first season ended with Gad struggling between his comic instincts and the promise he made to Luke. There is indeed a lot of scope and material for the renewal of the show, and as Ver Hoeve said, who plays the role of the 16-year-old, “Let’s all put those thumbs up on Netflix, shout it out, do what you can, and hope
