Eva Longoria's new travel series, Searching for France, has been described as light but endearing television in a review published by the Guardian.
The show follows the actor as she journeys around France, a country she describes as her "home away from home," despite typically visiting for work rather than leisure. The series marks Longoria's return to the country for what the review characterizes as a more personal exploration.
According to the review, the program carries echoes of the television series Emily in Paris in its tone and treatment of French culture, while still finding warmth through Longoria's evident enthusiasm, including moments such as her visiting a vineyard to learn about cabernet sauvignon grapes.
Searching for France follows an earlier installment, Searching for Spain, continuing a format in which Longoria explores different countries on screen. The review suggests the format could plausibly be extended to further destinations given its apparent popularity.
While the review notes the show does not break new ground for the travelogue genre, it credits the series' passion and lightness of touch for making it an engaging watch.
