Je suis tout à fait d’accord avec vous. Dès que j’ai vu le titre « emily in Paris » j’ai su que ça allait être très très mauvais... Et franchement j’aurai préféré que ça s’arrête au « oui oui baguette » Tour Eiffel et vin rouge. Je me suis sentie hyper mal d’avoir été représentée ainsi dans cette série. Et puis c’était carrément raciste par moment. J’ai découvert il n’y a pas longtemps qu’on pensait à l’étranger que nous les français sommes allergiques à l’eau et au savon. Voilà d’après cette série ce à quoi nous sommes rabaissés : les hommes français sont des gros charos ; les cuisiniers ont du temps à perdre avec une pauvre fille qui ne sait pas communiquer avec un plombier ; on a visiblement l’argent de manger tous les jours au restaurant ; on s’habille comme à la Fashion week pour promener nos chiens ; on fume énormément ; on est tous blancs (manque de diversité du casting bonjour) et on est extrêmement impolis et paresseux ... Pardon ? La jeune fille qui se trouve être la protagoniste de la série se retrouve en France et ne veut rien comprendre à notre culture et à notre langue. Sa connaissance de la France s’arrête aux sacs Chanel. (Sans parler de ses tenues hideuses par moment) Je suis vraiment énervée par le manque de culture dont ont fait part des producteurs de cette daube. Et puis c’est qui cette abrutie qui se met à chanter la vie en rose dans l’espace public ? C’est quoi cette manie de vouloir montrer que « the American way of thinking is the best » ? Si seulement ils savaient que les américains ne sont certainement pas vu comme des intellectuels partout dans le monde... Les français sont râleurs mais ça se comprend.

@@bartmann81 Right..... I'm sure you know what makes a brilliant actor. I'm sure you know it isn't dictated by the roles they land, but how well they embody that character and bring them to life. Though we should do well to remember that an actor is only going to do well with the writing and direction they've been given. It's why you see actors and writers be at odds about the characters so many times. The worlds best actor can not act well if the character they are portraying is poorly written. Being able to emote on cue does not automatically make you a good actor. But my main point was, you sound like Brian Griffin.

[@Mini-Toast_]

@@leechlover4life Yeah? What makes her terrible? What makes a a good actor? See I would have thought it would require looking at the script and listening to the writers talk about the character they created, and ONLY then judging to see if the actor did a poor job bringing that character to life. Why would writers and directors constantly put their faith in her? Does her Daddy own the studio? I mean her Dad is Phil Collins, so probably not. Please do tell. Because it sounds like you not only want an excuse to hate on a popular thing, but also have no idea how to properly judge something.

That's true that it doesn't really have to do with sexism. My mother tounge has the same thing. But let me tell you, I still find it frustrating as hell lmao. I'm not saying "change the language" in whatever way. It's more like "I still think it's kinda nasty for people who don't wanna conform" generally speaking. The neutral gender can only exist for plural and for objects or other living beings here, never for people. So imagine how non-binary people feel here. Idk, it's a true statement, sure. But I wouldn't pride myself on the fact that my language basically genders everything tbh. Also gender norms, classifications of what's more "feminine" and what's more "masculine" as a word, and object, an activity etc. have existed even way before our languages did. I find gender norms and unnecessarily gendered stuff irritating much like other people do. I just don't really like things that unconditionally remind me of that.

In French most words that end with a vowel are usually female and wordt that end with a consonant are usually male. Many exceptions off course like le musée, le livre and la mer, but when I was learning French at school, when in doubt this was always your best chance to get it right. Anyway, that is why it's le vagin (and to cancel that one out the beard is la barbe) In the series deranged point of view, pointing out this minor linguistic oddity is somehow a bold and admirable feminist statement.

So annoying... I am sorry for the actress since she is good at her job... but Emily in Paris really annoyed me.

[@salviaofficinalis02]

I absolutely love this show!

[@paulamayuga1656]

Why I’m seeing a lot of hate, i love emily’s character

[@flchung928]

Tony left Prada, moved to France, married a rich wife and started a perfume company.

[@themarispace]

I am from Brazil and my English teacher who is also Brazilian said that she has heard from Americans if we have streets in Brazil, if we have a car and if we are all Indians, so I have no doubt that Americans are like that.

[@tsou22]

"trAY exCItAy" its literally not hard to try and put on the accent so u pronounce the words properly like who is this girl

[@SA-xt1gd]

The customer service complaint 😂😂

[@Pip-Walton]

"Romanticising Ignorance"

[@DayWatch]

i do love lily collins but dear god what in the fresh hell is this show

[@goosebump91]

I just realized she acts a lot like Carrie from Sex and the City. Found out the series was made by the same producer as Sex and the City. No wonder

[@mauriciokrebs2913]

and the chinese girl is samantha

[@kristenbelt7299]

Yeah, same unlikeable traits in different characters.

[@j-manjr8127]

What's ironic to me. Is if she was a supporting character that wasn't over exposed to the audience. Plus being framed in the narrative in such a way that made it clear we weren't suppose to like her. We would be talking about what a clever well written parody of certain Americans she was.

[@mxrales8902]

i prefer to dislike the Emily character if yall think shes annoying but not lily collins in general i really like her and shes an amazing actress so lets please not

[@kristenbelt7299]

I love the actress but hate the character.

[@Grohlizm]

Off topic but I love that women’s mood, gotta love the attitude it’s savage.XD

[@purplebubblegum4055]

Oh boy. How will season 2 go?

[@StephanieLexis]

Lol, I made fun of this in my Emily in Paris parody!

[@mangarda]

I'm going to visit Paris for the first time in about a month and I am fully prepared to spend a bulk of the time just crying

[@ikutie5685]

yess

[@MrGrimmsWidow]

The french language is seriously effed up? This show is seriously effed up! Who gave the ok to make this show what the fuck netflix?

[@mai-zc5lq]

I only watched it because I like france

[@TheFifileigh]

Americans probably disagree with everything she says. that is probably why she moved to Paris, which is because she didn't have any friends in America and she couldn't find work in America. I guess in Paris, she appeared for exotic, different, and interesting...LOL

[@kristenbelt7299]

Good way of looking at it 😂

[@oneday7574]

As an American, I see this when I worked in the service industry, customers are stupid and entitled.

[@roxymang1]

I was travelling in Peru and I was at a bar with a group (I’m Canadian) and was with a British, Australian, and a New Zealander and an American guy came up to us (he said it was his first time outside of America) and asked if the countries we were from had gas stations……

[@kristenbelt7299]

🤦‍♀️ I apologize to all on behalf of any sensible Americans.

[@dylanmiller1256]

When I was in college I worked for a hotel that had a lot of international guests. Many of them initially appeared rude but mainly it was due to cultural misunderstandings. The French candor was just as offensive to the Americans I worked with as Emily’s attitude. C’est la vie. 😉

[@aztronomy7457]

Funny enough I used to work in the student travel industry in Europe for a couple years, and this is exactly how sorority study abroad American girls abroad act… especially in Europe.

[@m00nwalker32]

1:26 just no wtf is wrong with the writers

[@pirimpallopirimpalli4932]

if I may, still with being not French, so it's just a guess... It doesn't sound like something a French person would say, much more like some weird American humor. Because around here when we make up theories about language we don't jump into nonsensical "philosophy", we usually think about the origin of the word and its parts, synonyms, things associated with the form and meaning. Because we study those things in school extensively. We do.

[@Victrola66]

Can't believe there are people who have been watching all the seasons.

[@thomasmoll8822]

2:31 min. Maybe they would be less hated if they held their wine glasses properly... ;-)

[@TaytoJack94]

I adore this show

[@swamprat6666]

How

[@darcybhaiwala7057]

Netflix, this show is absolute shit Bring back stuff like House of Cards

[@pierrepinson2906]

🥧That is true 01:51 La crème brûlée is a very, very tasty dessert.

[@c2938a]

what was going through the writer’s minds when they wrote this??

[@saucy2476]

Hashtag oh craaayp! 💀

[@arianna4513]

I literally only watch the show for Gabriel, like the story is a little cringe 😬

[@jessicavictoriacarrillo7254]

Emily meet Madea.... Honestly I wish Netflix had Barb and Star

[@victoriatsimmer7283]

Liked more season 1.

[@reemnaser1475]

Hahahhaha honestly as an American living in france, its complicated to get cope with their culture and thoughts lol

[@dianas7429]

The same could be said for every person who goes living in the US.

[@certain7131]

@@dianas7429 yes but Americans lack culture, they speak like only one Language. The harder part is to deal with the racists that scream ‘go back to your country’ if you speak in your own language

[@applereagan1720]

Omg she’s so quirky and funny and everything just goes so right for her all the time without effort, almost like the show was totally written by real normal people! 😒

[@obeliusdacquen]

a thing i learned from this series is that having anything with eiffel tower on it and wearing a beret is super cliche in paris

[@mariembalo3076]

Tout à fait :)

[@giuliaferrari2318]

Besides, Emily is a little bit arrogant sometimes. She has some good ideas, but she thinks that she can do whatever she wants whenever she feels like it. She doesn't always think before doing/speaking, she doesn't consider the possible consequences.

[@richardmcneil6538]

I loved it

[@MrLeeVJ]

아름다운 그녀!🇰🇷💕👍 Beautiful girl!🇰🇷💕👍

[@janepoirierslife5270]

I love this show!!!

[@karenshokry3292]

💜💜💜

[@Dungeons_and_Tacos]

I searched "emily in paris being racist" to get a feel about what was going on... Did not expect an official netflix account to show it to me. I mean wow, I'm German and we certainly make a lot of fun of France... But not like this, this is just so racist and disrespectful

[@meinalteregon]

I know! How is this an AD? I got turned off after 3 seconds

[@juliev2216]

Yay! I'm French and we know our own stereotypes so we do laugh about them too but here it is just a whole another level !

[@Muahaha651]

Such a great show and actually super accurate

[@swaradate3490]

Okay maybe the show is too clichè and not real at all,but admit it You can't NOT binge it

[@Pine15]

If they wanted a series just to make fun of the culture every turn WHY FRANCE? They are quite literally one of the proudest people out there. Just go over to Germany and no one would've cared

[@katherinetorres8110]

I love this show 😊

[@axelm5300]

I hate to say it but many of the ignorant behavior and clichés are absolutely true.

[@lilmissrockchick4962]

'Oh my God, I feel like Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge', so you feel like you're living in the late 1800s in Paris as a courtesan dying of tuberculosis, lovely Edit: I don't want my comment to sound like I hate Moulin Rouge, because it's one of my favourite movies ♥️

[@IncaKing16]

For an English girl, playing an American is so natural for her
