I liked the movie 'Les Choristes' a lot, see pic. It's like the dramatical version of Sister Act set in post-war France.
Not really a dramatical series but I also like 'Le Dessous des Cartes' which is usually broadcasted on the Franco-German channel 'arte' but you can find the episodes all over youtube in French. They are just about 10 minutes long and the topics are geopolitics and geography, for example putting (the events in) certain countries into spotlight or talking about stuff related to current events.
I use them because there are French and German versions, so I don't know if this interests you.
