Emily in Paris Season 4 Part 1 Review: No Dull Moments Here!



Emily
In
Paris

Season
4
offers
more
drama,
high
fashion,
scandal
and
chaos
to
keep
you
entertained,
observes
Divya
Nair.

I
remember
watching
the
first
episode
of

Emily
In
Paris

during
the
lockdown
and
ended
up
bingeing
on
the
series,
thanks
to
the
absolutely
crush-worthy,
Gabriel
(Lucas
Bravo).

No,

EIP

is
not
all
about
Gabriel
but
essentially
about
Emily
Cooper,
a
young
American
girl
who
moves
to
Paris
from
Chicago
to
build
her
career
in
advertising
and
finds
success,
while
cruising
through
tricky
situations
and
people
both
in
her
personal
and
professional
life.

After
watching
the
first
two
seasons,
hardcore
advertising
professionals
and
haters
may
wonder
how
this
petite,
ambitious
beauty
who
has
fine
taste
in
haute
couture
and
culture,
can
get
away
with
actual
work
and
yet
finds
so
much
time
to
have
a
flashy
social
and
romantic
life.

Throughout
Seasons
1
to


3
,
you
will
see
how
Emily’s
friends
eventually
become
her
high-profile
clients,
turning
the
city
of
Paris
into
a
small
business
circle
where
everyone
you
meet
is
only
interested
in
Emily’s
marketing
genius.

But
if
you
are
watching
this
series
at
home,
on
a
long
weekend
without
your
critiquing
glasses,
and
rather
with
fine
(or
cheap)
wine
in
your
relaxed
pajamas,
Emily
will
secretly
make
you
want
to
trade
places
with
her.

She
could
be
your
helpful
girl-next-door,
your
3
am
bestie,
your
favourite
co-worker,
an
ambitious
career
woman,
a
social
butterfly
with
an
eager
eye
for
details
and
a
fashion
connoisseur,
all
at
once.
But
most
of
all,
you
will
find
Emily
endearing
because
beyond
her
‘I
can
fix
it
all’
image.
She
is
also
vulnerable
just
like
us
and
will
make
you
believe
that
despite
her
imperfections,
she
is
a
keeper
in
everyone’s
lives.

Netflix
has
decided
to
release
Season
4
of

EIP

in
two
parts.

Part
1
of
the
latest
Season
4,
releasing
August
15,
picks
up
from
the
night
of
high
drama
events
in
Emily’s
life

her
former
boss
Madeline,
who
is
pregnant,
has
fired
her
current
boss
Sylvie
on
charges
of
corruption
and
taken
over
the
agency.
Emily,
as
usual,
is
caught
between
the
two
warring
women
and
decides
to
work
for
both
of
them
because
Madeline
is
pregnant
and
Sylvie
needs
help
to
set
up
her
own
agency.

On
the
personal
front,
Emily
is
torn
between
resisting
her
charming
ex-boyfriend
and
neighbour
Gabriel,
who
now
aspires
to
be
a
Michelin
star
chef,
and
her
current
love
interest
Alfie,
a
banker
who
is
also
Gabriel’s
financial
advisor.

To
add
to
their
romantic
tension,
Gabriel’s
girlfriend
Camille
has
hinted
that
she
is
pregnant
while
also
threatening
her
best
friend
Emily
to
stay
away
from
Gabriel.


EIP

fans
have
already
watched
Emily
crush
Gabriel’s
heart
on
more
than
one
occasion
and
Season
4
thankfully,
offers
a
pleasant
respite
and
surprise.

Banker
Alfie,
the
new
man
in
Emily’s
life,
may
have
chiselled
abs
and
a
hefty
bank
balance,
but
he
is
like
a
vanilla
donut
with
no
fancy
toppings
or
melted
chocolate
sauce
and
no
match
for
Emily.

He
certainly
cannot
replace
the
doe-eyed
Gabriel
who
is
hard-working,
loyal,
career-oriented
and
harbours
deep
feelings
for
Emily.

So
when
the
right
situation
comes
along,
Emily
gives
Gabriel
and
their
relationship
a
second
chance.

May
I
say,
how
much
we
have
missed
seeing
this
adorable
couple
together
since
the
first
season?

On
the
work
front,
Emily
continues
to
battle
new
challenges
and
roadblocks
in
her
quintessential
fashion.

Season
4
offers
more
drama,
high
fashion,
scandal
and
chaos
to
keep
you
entertained.
Watch
out
for
Luc’s
refreshing
track
with
girlfriend
Marianne,
the
anonymous
Michelin
star
reviewer.

Quirky
characters
like
the
flamboyant
rival
designers
Pierre
Cadault
and
Gregory
Dupree
add
to
the
comic
element,
ensuring
there
is
never
a
dull
moment.

There
are
ample
discussions
around
food
and
marketing
pitches
and
the
picturesque
Parisian
locales
may
even
tempt
some
of
you
to
save
up
and
apply
for
a
Schengen
visa.

Part
1
ends
at
a
crucial
point.

Will
Gabriel-Camille
finally
break
up
or
will
the
latter
continue
to
be
the
toxic
mutual
girlfriend
and
friend
in
their
lives?

With
Sylvie
joining
the
#MeToo
movement
and
taking
on
JVMA’s
Louis
Deleon,
what
would
be
Sylvie
and
Emily’s
future
at
the
agency?

How
will
Emily
fix
it
all?
