    How The Hell Is Emily Going To Rome?

    [ad_1]

    It’s been enough time since Part 2 of Emily in Paris Season 4 has graced our televisions and screens…so if you’re reading this, you should be caught up by now. If not, there are spoilers ahead. And you probably already caught on from the title. Sorry.

    Four seasons in, and it’s Christmas in Paris, finally…a harrowing reminder that this arduous production starring Lily Collins has stretched out every possible moment and only covered
    four months in Emily-time.

    But actually, this was
    Emily in Paris Season 4, Part 2 jumping forward in time…so we’ve only technically covered like two months so far. From fall to Christmas, everyone’s lives seem to change drastically. And since there are a million different plots going on all at once, it seems like no one has it together.

    Unfortunately, I tuned into
    Netflix again. I know you all must hate this by now, I’m like a broken record. But, like any tragic accident, you can’t look away.

    Emily in Paris Season 4 Part 2 Recap

    If you recall from Part 1, Emily ends her relationship with chef (and client) Gabriel on a mountaintop because she’ll never come first over Camille. Camille has a secret of her own of course, because she’s
    not pregnant with Gabriel’s baby.

    So, as we head into the second part of the season, I’m already tense. Emily is now (A) single and (B) not going to do well at her job for a multitude of reasons…
    again. Meanwhile, her boss Sylvie and boytoy, Laurent, have shacked up in Sylvie’s lavish apartment and all seems to be going well…

    That is, until Laurent’s daughter, Geneviève , is arriving from the States to pursue a career in fashion…and Sylvie offers to get her a job with her competitor (who says no), so Sylvie ultimately decides to have her intern at her own company alongside painfully American Emily.

    By working together, Sylvie learns that Laurent
    may be seeing other people (cough-cough, his ex wife). So, in total French fashion, she starts seeing someone else on the side, too. But this isn’t Sylvie in Paris, back to Emily Dearest.

    We see Emily struggle to get over Gabriel. One of their clients even proposes a baby rattle perfume bottle, which she gives to Camille as a peace offering. However, Camille then dishes
    finally that she’s not actually knocked up and she thought she loved the idea of the life she and Gabriel could have had.

    So, obviously Emily feels dumb, and what would be the correct thing to do here? Go to Rome. Exactly.

    Meanwhile, Laurent’s daughter Geneviève starts doing everything that Emily is unable to: get through to Gabriel, be there for him in general, and yes, she even pulls a few moves on him. He gets his Michelin star, Laurent’s daughter tries to plant a smooch on him, and he realizes he misses Emily.

    But Emily’s in Rome!! Yapping it up with a new rich guy and making someone else fall in love with her somehow. After returning from a whirlwind romance with some guy whose name is currently escaping me, and honestly, does it even matter?…the team sits down for a meeting.

    Sylvie reveals that they will have to spearhead a permanent Rome office…and she wants it to be
    Emily who goes.

    Yes,
    EMILY the American who actually is the least qualified of them all. Is going to lead their Rome team. And now she gets this hot new rich guy, too.

    How Can Emily Go To Rome?

    @elisabettaab Did you catch this Emily in Paris Season 4 finale moment? Thanks to Lily Collins. #emilyinparis #netflix #lilycollins #paris #rome #tv #fyp ♬ original sound – Elisabetta B

    As we’ve noted, it’s only been four short months in Paris for Emily the Midwesterner. Now, after barely learning the language and culture,
    somehow she’s relocating to a totally different European country. My suspension of disbelief is utterly broken.

    The clear take away from most of Part 2 is that Emily is not prepared to lead anyone. If I made this many rash decisions that crazily, whackily,
    luckily work out, I’d be fired. Not only does Emily quickly think she runs the place, but now…she actually does.

    And, of course, this leaves Gabriel in the dust. Which honestly doesn’t bother me whatsoever. I feel absolutely nothing towards him. It’s all about Alfie for me.

    Anywho, Emily will indeed trek to Rome for the next season of
    Emily in Paris…which has indeed already been confirmed. To my delight (or horror?) we get to see yet another man fall in love with Emily in a foreign country known for its art, culture, cuisine, and fashion. Awesome.

  • Can We All Agree “Emily in Paris” Isn’t Good?

    Can We All Agree “Emily in Paris” Isn’t Good?

    [ad_1]

    What I love about Netflix is how sometimes they really don’t care. Take My Life With The Walter Boys for example: tacky plot, bad acting, no relatability…but a smash hit nonetheless. Sadly, these cheesy teeny bopper plotlines are all the rage. I’m looking at you, Emily in Paris.

    You see, I didn’t catch Emily in Paris at first. I didn’t want to. I knew what was coming and I didn’t like it one bit.

    But, at the end of the day, I’m not fully a free thinker. If something gets mentioned enough on social media — whether it’s a positive or negative review — I have to watch. And I was even far more interested when it seemed like people loved and hated Emily with equal fervor.

    Starring nepo baby Lily Collins as Emily, this car wreck of a show follows an American actually making it in the Parisian fashion world. On the surface, this sounds great. But once you watch, you realize it’s a disaster.

    We rarely follow a plot line. For a good part of the show, the main character Emily is torn between moving home and staying in Paris. She left her humdrum fiance in the American dust and moved on to a bunch of hotties in Paris. What a dream.

    Not only does Emily win over these Parisian dreamboats — Alfie, I would treat you better — she does it wearing the worst possible outfits. Paris, France is the fashion capitals of the world…and with a show about working in fashion, you’d think Emily’s style would eventually mirror that.

    It doesn’t.

    Four seasons in and Emily is still trying too hard, mixing heinous prints, and applying bright red lipstick on her drab little lips. These past two seasons, she’s even added bangs.

    I get angrier as I write this…but season four of Emily in Paris is out on Netflix.

    Emily in Paris – Season 4, Part 1 Review

    Honestly, going into this season, I remember nothing. I don’t know the characters’ names except for Alfie (and this seems to be the right choice). I forget most of the plot (if there ever was one). And it’s like I’m watching a whole new, awful show. Fun!

    But this season, the writer’s decided to throw in every single plot line they could possibly think of and cram it into four episodes. If you don’t want spoilers, skip ahead.

    We’ve got Emily’s boss — Sylvie — accusing industry titan Louis de Leon of sexual assault. There’s Camille — who got dumped by her girlfriend and moved next-door to her ex, Gabriel — only to find out she isn’t pregnant with his baby and he’s actually back with Emily.

    Then, of course, we have Emily who has to forge a relationship with Alfie in the name of business. What a hard life she lives, truly. Imagine I wore the most atrocious outfits and had all the attractive men in France still think I’m cute. I, too, would never leave.

    All the while, Emily’s boyfriend Gabriel is aiming to add a Michelin Star — or 3 — to his restaurant. There’s a lot to keep track of here, especially since the Netflix writers are trying to tie up a bunch of loose ends. Even they know there are far too many plots, but I’m not done.

    The other crazy plot line they’ve decided to throw in there is a corporate issue: the marketing firm is selling a viral glass skin face mask…The only catch? Emily finds it’s actually just lubricant packaged in a fancy container.

    This is one of the times I outwardly groaned. Seriously? This is what they could come up with? Was the Writer’s Strike really that bad?

    On August 15, I sat down to watch the first four episodes of the season. If you think that means Netflix left us on a major Bridgerton-esque cliffhanger, you’d be wrong. We’re currently left wondering what’s going to happen to the lube face mask.

    Why Emily in Paris is so bad it’s good

    The phenomenon is that social meida has come together and collectively agreed: the show is so bad…but we won’t stop watching.

    Maybe it’s for lack of better television right now, I know my options are bleak. Or maybe we crave a disastrous series that distracts us from our real life problems. But no matter about that, it’s working.

    For those of you saying that Emily in Paris is a Golden Globe-nominated show — honestly, all that does is make me question the legitimacy of the Golden Globes.

    Either way, unfortunately, I’ll be seated when Emily in Paris Season 4, Part 2 comes out on Netflix on September 12.
