TV show description:
Based on the Transporter feature film series, this action-adventure TV show follows Frank Martin (Chris Vance), a professional “transporter.” He’s paid to pick up and deliver people or cargo from anywhere in the world.
He’s the very best at what he does. Martin handles only the most difficult and dangerous of assignments — and only trusts a handful of people.
A former CIA agent, computer expert Carla Valeri (Andrea Osvárt) negotiates with Martin’s clients and provides him with all the information he needs. Technology expert and mechanic Dieter Hausmann (Charly Hübner) alters and repairs Martin’s special Audi as needed.
Inspector Tarconi (François Berléand) is Martin’s reluctant police officer ally. Stationed in Nice, Tarconi once investigated him but they’re now friends. Tarconi takes care of his house in Cap Roux when Martin is on a mission and Martin turns to him when he needs an official police intervention.
Martin’s group of friends begins to grow when he meets Juliette Dubois (Delphine Chanéac), his beautiful neighbor. Unbeknown to him, she’s a DCRI agent who’s investigating the Transporter network. She’s torn between her sense of duty and her growing attraction for Martin.
Series Finale:

But as Frank prepares once again to face off against the deadly Bernard Dassin (Dhaffer L’Abidine), Caterina makes a discovery that could potentially to turn Frank’s world upside down.

What do you think? Do you like Transporter: The Series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season?
I do agree to all who missed Dieter and the sexy pixie Carla! It’s NOT the SAME anymore once you dropped the original characters that carry the show. And what’s up with this Frank grew older? Transporter is just in early season and then dropped the 2 important characters? Wake up if you want this show last. We love this show coz it doesn’t have foul language and full of action. Bring back Carla NOW!
YES! I agree with you!
Just repeating what everyone else is saying but it needs to be said. Not happy about Dieter’s character getting killed, but losing Carla too? That is just plain stupid. I can only believe this is the end a really good show. If the people behind the show just don’t care anymore than not much we can do about it. Very sad because it was a good show and Carla is a knockout! I’m still watching but I’m very disapointed 🙁
I’ve watched all the films and love it. I started watching the series a couple weeks ago and I pretty much enjoy it. At first, I didn’t like the new Frank but he’s growing on me. I love Statham version but Vance kinda shows the other side of Frank we didn’t see it the film and I like it. Considering as a show to relax after the day it works for me. And then here comes season two, the network changed the whole things. It’s a disappointment. I love watching Dieter and Frank’s relationship grows and just love Carla. The… Read more »
I know they always try to fix something that ain’t broke kill off characters all the this sucks . And now Carla is gone and dieter this is stupid I really like this show Chris Vance should play bat man or death stroke
I enjoyed the original movies and was enjoying season 1 of the TV series. With the beginning of season 2, I was shaking my head wondering what was going on. I REALLY miss Carla, and Dieter too. Why is it every time the networks have a great series and a good thing going, they have to mess with it. The show this season is jut not the same.
Just watched the season two premiere episode last night. All I can say is what the “HECK” happened here??? No Carla? Dieter killed? Frank looks old, heavy, slow and just a mess. Season one he was the epitome of professionalism. Crisp and fitted suits, clean shaven, confident, and never a hair out of place. In season two he’s so disheveled. Season 1 Frank would have had no trouble dispatching the thug in the garage. It just seems like the show was dumbed down, made too casual, and the actors are just going thru the motions. Very disappointed.
First time I watch was (Season 1 – Episode 11) of 2014 Transporter: The Series, I got hooked! I love the way in begin music with song “The Working Man” was so cool. And it show all the pretty women, then Frank turn around and look right at you with SEXY smile! I love his accent! Gosh I was going nuts. Then I saw it coming in FALL, so I watch (Season 2 – Episodes 2 and 3) was awful. No music, no pretty women, No CARLA and DIETER KILLED? He looks a bit older, a bit too long hair,… Read more »
I agree. I think Frank has lost that touch of class and he is not sexy anymore. What is with his hair??? It looks like crap now. I dont like this new version of this show now. I loved Carla-sexy and smart. But Dieter was the best–loved his character too. Frank needs a good car man–now who are they going to choose AMMCO to fix the car? I was recording all episodes–but with all the changes– I am out. It is not like the movie versions anymore. No more chemistry between the actors. Why did the keep the same name… Read more »
I am so glad others were as disappointed as I was that Carla was gone and Dieter was killed. Instead of being a cast of four (Dieter, Carla, Inspector and Frank) we are currently down to two and the two we have do not have the chemistry as the original cast did. The other three (although the inspector has not been killed or gave one line to explain his non- appearance as we received with Carla, he didn’t appear at all in episode two but a safe bet he’s not returning any time soon) have been replaced by an actress… Read more »
I love his chemistry with Cat but he seems to never fully engage with anyone to the point it is almost creepy. I know he has secrets but he needs to open up a bit to a nice romantic playfulness with the gorgeous woman that works with him – she clearly has something for him I like that he took on the american computer nerd but HATE that Dieter was killed off! He was the human element to Frank=their friendship as well as Tarconi’s made Frank less stiff. Carla would have been fine to just do what she did from… Read more »
Everyone on here read my mind!!!! I could not believe Carla
Was gone!!! And then they killed off Deiter??? And my boy
Looks like he aged 10 years and his hair? Are they trying to
Lose viewers??? I watched all 12 episodes in one setting because
I was hooked, but I am not so sure anymore 🙁
I fully agree with you, I’ve just started the second season and I’m already wondering what’s happened to Carla for one.They had a solid thing going and now hey kill off two chemistry characters, are they looking to get cancelled..
what are you thinking get the other girl back the cut short hair girl that ran the stuff.
killing the other guy off sucks
and what are you doing with his hair
stop put it back the way it was or get of dark hair girl she sucks .
Love the series. Watched Transporter 3 to see how the series started. Not a fan of Statham but love Vance. Not happy that Carla and Dieter have been replaced. New characters fine but grow with all these fine actors and create story lines with all. Beautiful locations. And I agree Frank’s new look is bad.
I am hope they do not cancel the series the greatest series on TV since the James Bond movies
I think the show is great. Please do not cancel this show
Richard
@Richard, me too. I’m wondering if the viewer are disappointed to see the movie was change everything since from beginning of Season 1, Episodes 1-11), then this fall….I pray and hope they do not cancel sooner if they read our comments before change their mind….
I’m wondering if they let Carla and Deter go as part of a budget cutting move. If so, it might be a bad sign about the show’s legs. I guess we’ll see if they bring in any new regular cast.
I agree with some of the previous comments. They should not have eliminated Carla and Deiter. Big mistake.
Just finished watching Season 2 Opener (from DVR): EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED!!! Had been a huge fan of Statham in the Transporter movies. Several weeks ago I just happened to stumble onto this TNT series, beginning with Season 1 Opener. While clearly “not the same” as the movies, I accepted the difference and became a “huge fan” right away–immensely enjoying the back-to-back Saturday night episodes! Then, when the series marathon occurred Thanksgiving Day (last week), I re-watched them all, enjoying them a second time around! Then came Season 2 Opener: No Carla, Dieter’s death, and Frank looking scruffy, older, and vulnerable …… Read more »
I agree with all the previous comments. Big mistake to change everything. Taking Carla and Dietor from the show was a big disappointment. Season 1 was a great start. Season 2 may be an end to a promising series.
My wife and I love the show! Rare to like the same show (and an action series at that)
Very disappointed to see Carla and Dieter go. Replacement for Carla is not at all up to the task and Dieter was an awesome character. Taking those two out was a very poor decision. Even my kids were sad to see Dieter go and they only were allowed to watch one episode… I don’t think the new “Frank” is as good as the old “Frank” (Statham) but he’s growing on us. Season two has him looking pretty aged though?
