TV show description:
A period drama series, the Dangerous Liaisons TV show is a prequel to the classic 18th-century French novel Les Liaisons dangereuses by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos.
The series revolves around the story of how the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont met as passionate young lovers in Paris on the eve of the revolution. In this time, Pascal (Denton) and Camille (Englert) are simply two young people who are dreaming of a better life together.
Camille, who is taken in by the current Marquise de Merteuil (Manville), navigates her own path in a world of men, using the power of secrets to take back control. Meanwhile, Valmont will stop at nothing to regain the title that was recently taken from him. Their on-again-off-again love story is the heart of the series. Of course, it’s not love — it’s war.
Series Finale:
Episode #8 — It’s War
