Characters

Marion (Audrey Lamy) and Cedric (Loup-Denis Elion) (since season one)

Marion and Cedric, in their thirties, share a studio flat. They were in love for four years. Cedric works as a manager in a firm: he’s cultivated and he likes to show it, which annoys Marion. He has a good image of himself. Cedric practices martial arts. He also tries to convince Marion to have a child. Before, Marion was a temporary worker. Currently, she resumes her psychology studies. She’s very jealous, lazy, narrow-minded, a liar, a sore loser, and spendthrift. She also belongs to a charity organization and takes care of elderly people freely. They nickname each other “poussin” (“little honey bun” in English). Their project is to take a trip around the world. They often argue for nothing and make up for nothing.

Liliane (Valérie Karsenti) and José (Frédéric Bouraly) (since season one)

They were married for more than 20 years, but they lived together for 25 years, at least. They live in a suburban residence. They have a son, Emmanuel (nicknamed “Manu”), 23, who left the home in order to work in China. So they have to learn to live together again. José is immature, often anxious, lazy, quite unsophisticated and a bit silly. He works at the youth and sport department of the municipality. He tries to invent new inventions but he always lacks something as Liliane always says. Lillian is beautician. Liliane tries to rekind the romance by erotic games that often turn out badly because of Jose’s clumsiness. She also imitates the pigeon.

Huguette (Marion Game) and Raymond (Gérard Hernandez) (since season one)

They are in their seventies. Their main quality is their pure evil. Huguette has to learn to live with her husband Raymond who annoys her. He is a retired gendarme (French police officer). Their everyday life often comes down playing nasty things on their relatives. Sometimes they pool their energy to sabotage the daily life of their family circle. Raymond likes to build models in his free time. Also, he never misses an opportunity to make fun of Huguette’s cooking. Raymond nicknames Huguette “Ma Poule” (“My honey bun” in English). They get married because Huguette made Raymond believe she was pregnant. Under this outward appearance, we can see true love.

Emma (Anne-Élisabeth Blateau) and Fabien (David Mora) (since season three)

Emma works at Bricoflex and Fabien is an history-geography professor.

Camille (Amélie Etasse) and Phillippe ( Grégoire Bonnet) (since season seven)

Camille is a yoga teacher, she is very zen. She is 30. Phillippe is 50 and he is rich.
