I thought Emily in Paris had a bit of a Sex and the City vibe to it. I wonder if it will be a knockoff, but set in Paris?
ReplyDeleteWon't be a total knockoff as she does not have friends, but it will probably have those trendy girl in an urban metropolis vibes. Unlike SJP Lily is adorable.
DeleteAgreed. I may be one of the few who think SATC would have been better without SJP. She just came off whiny throughout the whole series. Very unlikable. Lily is totes adorable, so maybe this will be more like Ugly Betty (which I loved and was so sad when they took it off the air).
DeleteYes, she always kept nagging about something, especially about her poor boyfriends. I watched the original Spanish Ugly Betty a few episodes, it was very much different to the American version (Spanish Betty really was wildly fugly LOL).
DeleteYES YES YES!! I was totally sold halfway through the description but "eep"ed out loud at the Carrie Bradshaw reference.
ReplyDeleteThat part about Carrie was just my own assumption :)
DeleteI'm sold nonetheless. Dove right in!! Now, let's hope it lives up to the hype.
DeleteFingers crossed. It was originally supposed to be a part of the female night at Paramount Network with Young sitcom, but they decided to keep Paramount for men only after the success of Yellowstone, so this one went to Netflix which is much much better for the series itself.
