I knew someone who would take a 6 hour direct TGV to a southern city. The line got cancelled and now she has to switch in another major city that's not Paris, but the layover if short and she misses her connection if the train is too late. So now she builds in a buffer of two hours, but that just adds to the time she's travelling. And neither of the two trains are TGV.
In France, if you want to go to or from Paris, you're golden. If you don't, well, it's gonna take ten hours and you may be going through Paris anyway.
That’s disappointing, I’d heard TVG was really good.
