Since I could not find an entry for "Extr@" French on IMDb I'm writing for review for Extra here on the English version entry. Extra is an educational sitcom consisting of 13 episodes.Each episodes last about 25 minutes. Annie (Marie Cordillot) and Sacha (Vanessa Seydoux) share a flat. Their next-door neighbor Nico(Jean-Felix Callens)is a disorganized,humorous macho fellow. Sacha's American penpal Sam (Lawrence Ray) comes to France to visit her. His limited command of French serves as the central dynamic of for the language learning content of the series. Hsi trying to get to grips with the daily French is highly amusing actually. For instance in one episode he uses "poubelle roti" instead of "poulet roti". In another episode he asks for a camel(un chameau) instead of a hat(un chapeau)while he is trying to do some shopping. He even mistakes fish(poisson) for poison. In the description of the DVD it says "You do not need a tutor The program EXTR@ will get you a unique opportunity in the shortest time possible to extend your vocabulary and learn perfect pronunciation. Inspecting an entertaining video, words and phrases common in everyday situations, will be assimilated and remembered by you without much effort." This is completely true. If you want to brush up on FRENCH,Spanish,German or English(by the way there were four versions made: French, German, Spanish and ESL) Extra is a great way of doing so.
