Série noire is a Quebec Comedy drama thriller series which was originally broadcast on Radio-Canada and TOU.TV in 2014–2015.[1] The series centres on Denis (François Létourneau) and Patrick (Vincent-Guillaume Otis), the writers of a popular but critically reviled crime drama series, La loi de la justice, as they embark on a crime spree following the end of the show's first season in the hope of accumulating the personal experience necessary to make the writing more realistic in the show's second season.[1]

The show was critically acclaimed[2] and won eleven Gémeaux awards in 2014[3] and four Gémeaux awards in 2016.[4]
