Emily in Paris is back, and once again, it feels like indulging in a pastry that’s all frosting and no cake. Season 4 Part 1 of this guilty pleasure promises more of what we love to hate- those picture-perfect Parisian moments and Emily’s endless parade of couture, wrapped around a plot that’s starting to feel as thin as a crepe. But who are we kidding? We didn’t come here for profound drama, we’re here for the drama-queen life that only Emily Cooper can deliver.
As season 4 kicks off, it’s clear that our favourite American-in-Paris is still torn between two lovers, a city that’s too chic for its own good, and the ever-complicated mess that is her love life. So, buckle up, because this ride is more about the scenic route than the destination, and if there’s one thing Emily’s going to do, it’s making sure we enjoy the view- even if it’s through grey-coloured glasses. A post shared by Emily In Paris (@emilyinparis) Season 4 promised us more of the same drama that has kept us tuning in: Emily is caught between two lovers- chef Gabriel and British charmer Alfie.
Ah, what a dilemma, right? But here’s the thing: while the love triangle has always been central, this season quickly reminds us that Emily in Paris is less about Emily’s romantic conundrums and more about her love affair with the city itself.
