I don’t know why this show is so damn watchable. I’ve binged every season, and yet, I don’t find myself liking any of the characters, except for Luc. Emily is annoying. Gabriel is cute, but boring. Mindy can sing, but that’s about all. Cami is chic and French in all the right ways, but I found myself rooting for her less this season. Maybe, it’s the fashion. Maybe, it’s the fact that the show is set in Paris. Maybe, it’s the fact that Emily’s French office mates Sylvie, Julien and Luc are at times delightfully rude and hilarious. Maybe, it’s all of the above. I guess this show is kind of like chewing bubble gum. Once you start, you just can’t stop. Also, the Pop Air Balloon Museum is my literal dream come true. So, if you’re in the mood for something mindless and fun, Emily in Paris is the perfect weekend binge. But, if you want something a bit more challenging, watch The English instead.

Emily is pretty fun! And many of the small places where the characters hang out are real. So it’s also a bit of a tourist guide…(“Le temps de cerises” is a good example :)) .
