The
idea
of
releasing
a
new
season
in
two
parts
is
probably
what
is
not
working
for
Part
2
of
Emily
In
Paris
4,
observes
Divya
Nair.
Emily
in
Paris
is
one
of
those
fluffy
Web
series,
where
you
are
buckled
in
the
fancy
world
of
a
young
marketing
professional,
who
sees
the
world
through
her
designer
sunglasses
and
takes
you
on
an
aspiring
journey
filled
with
misadventures,
whirlwind
romance
and
exotic
experiences.
In
Part
2
of
the
fourth
season
of
the
much-awaited
Emily
in
Paris,
Emily
and
Gabriel
end
up
at
Camille’s
place
for
Christmas.
The
couple
gets
a
taste
of
reality
when
Gabriel
is
forced
to
choose
between
his
present
and
former
girlfriend.
Emily
gets
upset
when
Gabriel
chooses
pregnant
Camille
during
a
skiing
trip
in
the
French
Alps.
Emily
chooses
to
be
practical
and
returns
to
Paris
where
she
realises
that
her
former
boyfriend
Alfie
will
be
getting
engaged
to
his
girlfriend.
Heartbroken,
Emily
decides
to
turn
a
new
leaf
where
she
promises
to
prioritise
herself
and
hopefully
keep
her
personal
and
professional
lives
separate.
Enter
a
new
trouble
in
the
form
of
Genevieve,
Sylvie’s
husband’s
daughter.
She
doesn’t
understand
boundaries,
and
encroaches
on
the
lives
of
Sylvie,
Emily
and
Gabriel,
causing
more
misunderstandings
and
trouble
in
their
lives.
We
are
yet
to
find
out
if
she
is
an
Emily-in-the-making
or
a
potential
negative
character.
Gabriel,
the
centre
of
all
problems,
is
a
classic
example
of
poor
timing
and
communication.
Instead
of
mending
things
between
him
and
Emily,
his
lack
of
initiative
distances
himself
from
Emily,
who
seals
their
break-up.
Meanwhile,
Mindy
and
Nico
break
up
over
a
tabloid
report
and
Emily
finds
new
love
in
the
form
of
Marcello,
an
Italian
stranger
who,
predictably,
becomes
her
valued
client.
His
fragile
ego
reminds
us
of
the
insecure
Alfie.
The
makers
seem
to
have
invested
little
creativity
while
fleshing
out
new
characters.
The
idea
of
releasing
a
new
season
in
two
parts
is
probably
what
is
not
working
for
the
series.
That
happened
with
Bridgerton
as
well
where
the
intensity
of
investing
yourself
in
a
chaotic
situation
is
weakened.
In
Emily
In
Paris,
part
2
of
the
new
season,
feels
like
an
entire
new
season
where
the
continuity
of
characters
ends
abruptly
for
the
sake
of
convenience.
The
idea
of
two
men
competing
for
the
same
girl
or
two
women
competing
for
one
guy
is
also
overstretched.
Apart
from
her
professional
life,
Emily
hasn’t
matured
emotionally
and
ends
up
repeating
the
same
pattern
of
behaviour.
It’s
hard
to
figure
out
how
she
can
move
on
from
one
intense
romance
to
another
in
just
a
matter
of
days.
Although
Sylvie
is
the
boss,
it
is
always
Emily
who
has
the
brains,
does
all
the
hard
work
and
handles
the
chaos.
All
other
characters
are
reduced
to
extras.
There
are
times
when
you’d
notice
how
Mindy
and
Julian
had
more
things
to
say
in
their
brief
situations
than
Emily
ever
did
through
her
four
seasons.
Season
4
ends
with
a
major
twist
as
Sylvie
announces
how
Emily
will
handle
their
new
agency
from
Rome.
Emily’s
decision
to
stay
back
in
Rome
is
welcomed
by
Marcello.
Back
home
in
Paris,
Gabrielle
checks
with
Mindy
how
he
can
find
Emily
in
Rome.
With
Camille
looking
to
adopt
a
baby
and
Genevieve
developing
feelings
for
Gabriel
and
trying
to
upstage
Emily
at
work,
one
can
only
predict
what
trouble
a
new
season
might
bring
in
for
Emily
and
Marcello.
Will
it
be
renamed
Emily
In
Rome?
