Autism in the media: Astrid et Raphaëlle

[beatrice_otter]

My parents are watching and enjoying a French detective show that's currently airing on PBS called Astrid (In French, it's Astrid et Raphaëlle) It's about an autistic woman who works as an archivist for the police, who partners with a police detective to help solve crimes. They think it's good autism representation, I haven't seen it but am curious to know what other autistics think about it.

I watched a bit of it, a whole bunch of autism clichés, but maybe better than nothing. I like the French version of High Intellectual Potential on Hulu more, it's similar but more Sherlockian + ditsy comedy.

Thanks for the rec.
