Emily in Paris

I was introduced to Emily in Paris upon a recommendation and in the first 10 minutes of the first episode I immediately disliked Emily. Her character came off as arrogant and selfish. She enters a new country, thinking she can take over. Throughout the seasons, Emily continues to make horrendous mistakes but never takes accountability for them. The back-and-forth between her and Gabriel is getting old. There are other storylines that I enjoy, including her best friend. Anytime chaos hits Emily, it's because it's self-induced. Upon looking up the show during the third season, I noticed an actual podcast dedicated to how much people load the show. Also, there are various Reddit threads. It's pretty interesting to watch a show just so I can see Emily have her butt handed to her because she deserves it, and the crazy thing is I'm gonna end up watching the new season when it comes out.

Seen it all before a million times. France made to look awful through a fake and ignorant lens of petty cliché. Utter nonsense. This production insults the intelligence of Netflix subscribers.

I'm only five minutes into the second episode, but I paused the first episode three times to do far more interesting things around the house. I feel like I'm watching a juvenile version of Carrie Bradshaw's trip to Paris. Lily Collins in zany, Carrie-like costumes feels forced, along with all of the gratuitous shots of Lily's outfits that are clearly product placement. Emily does not feel like a three dimensional character to me. It feels like she's a character type and Lily Collins is far too talented to make me believe it's her acting and not the writers or the director. I was really looking forward to this show because I love SATC and Lily, but this show feels like it was made for pre-teens.

Main character is just annoying and for anyone outside of America this is just stupid. How on Earth is someone supposed to like and relate with ignorant social media expert that has a personality of a cartoon character.

This series is like a "Sex and the City" for Millennials. It's based on the idea of a French farce with a lot of misunderstandings, stereotypical characters galore, beautiful scenery, people, clothes and every French-American put-down one can imagine! Season 1 offered some interest for the first few episodes but it goes steadily downhill from there. Season 2 is a complete washout with the characters becoming repetitive, predictable and boring. The acting is forced and the dialog cloying and nauseating. This level and type of series shows just how desperate the streaming sites are for content....no matter how bad it may be!
