Emily em Paris

Well, I am partly enjoying it..but then realized it is basically a drawn out version of devil wears Prada- same fashions, same mean boss woman, same bitchy office politics, and if you listen closely enough- also the same background music they used in the original movie.

The main high point is Gabriel (obvious reasons really ; ) but the series lacks realism- the main character is dripping in designer outfits yet rents a very average apartment. She somehow manages to befriend her narcissistic boss and invites her to parties. She's allowed to speak English at work when everyone else is talking in french. Literally every guy she meets seems to want her. Who actually buys this?

Also, I dont know French people but they are not represented in the nicest way- made to look philandering and full of secret agendas, whilst Emily is made to look like the sweet little innocent amongst them.

The actress, Lily Collins, is amazing..but the story is so cliche and feels just like another Andy sachs adventure .

I had high hopes for Season 4 of *Emily in Paris*, but unfortunately, it didn't deliver the excitement I was expecting. While the outfits of the cast remain stunning and continue to steal the show, the storyline feels repetitive. It seems like we're stuck in a loop, revisiting the same themes without any fresh twists or developments.

Emily's adventures in the City of Light often feel like a rehash of past seasons, with the same conflicts and romantic entanglements reappearing without significant evolution. While the series shines in its ability to present stunning visuals and stylish ensembles, the lack of character development and new plot twists leaves much to be desired.

The charm of the show is undeniable, but it's starting to feel like a missed opportunity for deeper storytelling. I believe the creators could take risks and introduce fresh elements that would elevate the series beyond its current formula.

As much as I enjoy the glamour and the Parisian backdrop, I find myself longing for growth-not just in the characters, but in the story itself. Here's hoping that future seasons will embrace change and innovation, bringing new life to this beloved series.

The Emily In Paris show is basic. It's a show that I really enjoyed (by the way, I just finished the first part of season 4 in one day), but it's a show that cruelly lacks depth. The characters are far too superficial, the problems they face are not at all "relatable" and especially their life in Paris does not symbolize life there at all. The show is full of clichés, croissants, bars, restaurants, streets with Haussmann buildings, this is so false and it's an extremely superficial side of the show. The characters seriously lack depth, Emily who is in a love triangle and the problems she lives at work are nonsense and very shiny and cute romance. It's much more of a show that you can chill to and watch without really paying attention and more enjoying the city (which is simply wonderful knowing that Paris is not really like that). I advise if you like to watch a light and normal show but not really if you appreciate something deep and strong.

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!

Is it the most well written, eloquent, well acted series ever? No. Is it a light watch that is easy to check in and out of with fantastic colours and set design/ costumes? Yes. I enjoyed this in a time where I don't want to be reminded of the Covid Global Crisis, politics, the crap weather and other depressing things going on across the globe.

The characters are quite fun. The storyline is easy to navigate. The set and colours are beautiful. A lot of criticism around the wardrobe on Vogue Instagram but I thought they were fun and pretty.

It's mindless and distracting from reality. Perfect. What more could one want from a series right now?
