Emily in Paris s3

[Pumpkindoodles]

Can we talk about it?
what did you think?
i can’t be the only one who finds Alfie’s theatrical impression of a cockney geezer horrific can I?! Why is no one talking about this?!
and what happened to Gabriel, absolutely no chemistry this series?

do we think camis baby is definitely his?

I binged it in 2 days and am angry at myself for not spreading it out!

I found the ending very strange. Won't say as not sure if we can do spoilers.

Yes Gabriel def seems to have lost a bit of sizzle. Alfie is annoying and I don't feel much chemistry between him and Emily.

How is Emily so bloody successful at everything she touches and yet still can't speak French fluently?! A friend who lived in Paris said the locals probably wouldn't have given anyone not even attempting to parle francais the time of day let alone their business

Emily is such a distinctly unlikeable person - is she meant to be?

The actor who plays Alfie has the most ridiculous accent since the guy in Mary Poppins.

I don't think the American boss would have even been allowed to fly at 8-9 months pregnant. What airline would let her on?

I hate the clothes this season. It went too far from anything actual people wear on the street and became clownish.

I still love it, god help me.

Oh I should’ve said spoilers in the title!!

i lived in Paris myself just for 6 months for work, I didn’t know a word when I arrived and I worked really hard to learn, the locals definitely just looked at me in disdain any time I tried. So I agree! But hers and Alfie’s relationship is still more unbelievable than everyone’s willingness to talk to her in English

the end was weird!!

End was very strange! I rather liked Alfie and felt a bit gutted for him at the end. I don’t trust Camille at all….the baby must be Gabriel’s though? Interested to see how that plays out in S4

I just binged it... was disappointed that there weren't many marketing campaigns but it was fun, easy to watch TV. The clothes weren't anywhere near as good as previous seasons. And Emily had some truly awful hairstyles!

Will still watch the next season when it arrives

Eugh mind us outfits were just awful.
Overall I'm so disappointed, s3 was slow and then messy trying to add drama. Made me irritated because I just adored s1&2.

I binged the whole thing in 1 day, as I was sick in bed.

Hated most of the outfits, they went way overboard. Most looked like fancy dress, which is a shame, as Emily always looked so chic.

Didn't think Alfie's character was too bad. Shame he literally disappeared off the face of the earth?! Not sure what will happen in S4 with the plot twist. Anyone's guess really!

So many unanswered questions and plot holes, but by god, I love that show 😩

I adore it just for the views of Paris.

It's such a pile of shite but my god its addictive! Absolutely can't stand Emily and every plot has zero plausibility but yet...can't not watch it! Agree the outfits haven't been so good in S3. And Alfie is hot but dear god the accent. My main reasons to watch are Luc, Julian & Sylvie. Luc is absolutely brilliant 🤩

I've got it on as background noise. It's absolutely dire. All of the acting is terrible, but Alfie and Gabriel are particularly awful. And that fucking singing one. I skip all the needless and completely unwanted singing.

I can’t bear Alfie. His acting is awful. Really wooden. As it’s another by Darren Starr (Sex in the city) it feels a bit like Emily is a bit of a Carrie Bradshaw. I love Luc and Sylvie but do find Emily annoying. Everything somehow always turns out okay for her.

Oh and I hate having Mindy's singing shoved down my throat.

Is the actress someone's niece? How did she get them to feature her singing so prominently?

I’ve seen all of season 3. But restarted the whole show again at season 1 with a friend. Love this show… yes, it’s the outfits, music and characters but also because it’s set in Paris!

Gabriel’s school boy hair was a real low point. If only he’s grown it a bit at the back.

I thought this season was even more stupidly predictable with the work drama than before. I agree that the outfits were insane, particularly Emily and Mindy. And Gabriel seemed boring.

The actor who plays Alfie is actually English, don't know if he talks like that all the time, or of it sounds so jarring with the American and French accents. Hate when he calls Emily, Cooooopah.

Just finished it
I thought it was really good! Just me? Though I got a shock, I would have cried if Pierre had been killed off!

I think Camille is lying about being pregnant.

I really felt for Julien when he said to Emily "don't you have an off switch?"

Alfie sounds just like the Essex boys I grew up with so obviously I like him.

Random queries

1. where does Emily keep her hair or are we meant to assume she wears extensions?
2. who the hell chooses Eurovision over a commercial deal?
3. why did no one tell off Nicolas for having the chopper land so rudely?

I'm sure there are more! But overall, I thought they did really well with it.

Gabriel is such a wet blanket now, totally over the ‘aw he loves Emily’ thing now. Boring.

I love it! She mostly did musicals before, I thought?

is there a thread for people who like the show?

Pleased Alfie is out of the picture,cant stand him.

😂 I do love the show
but I love to hate it too

Alfie is British but he’s very northern, so the accent and all his mannerisms still seem to be like an American trying to do cockney. It’s just over acted.
I’m not convinced we won’t see him again. Though, he was a main character for two seasons and he’s just out in 5 seconds just because someone else says emily is in love with Gabriel.

i did wonder why there was quite so much Mindy and yes! To the pp who mentioned it, I was really confused at Eurovision, I wonder what happened with him though since she clearly still ended up with Nicolas at the end of the ep.

i really liked seeing more Sylvie this series

I'm just wondering how Emily still has her apartment. I always thought it came with the job?

I was thinking that as well!

@EmmaAgain22

Do you? I feel like the story just stops unnecessarily for a few minutes an episode while she sings. I wouldn't mind if they cut to other things happening with her singing in the background but IMO its boring to just watch multiple long shots of her her busking or being on stage.

Oh- and I like the show, but it's a good show to make fun of because it's so silly. I think that's part of the fun.

I haven't finished it yet, and it's a bit of a struggle, unlike the first two seasons.

The outfits... I loved the first two for this reason, but it's just got silly now. It's try too hard and seems to be the more outlandish the better.

I am not French and have not visited France very much, but do the French make a habit of taking English songs and translating them? We had Shallow half French and half English.

And I really don't want to hear Mindy singing anymore now tbh. But I've worked out there will be more.

Gabriel.... Just what happened there? He's just..... there. He just seems so dull now.

I will no doubt finish it off today, so I may be back.

Wasn't as good. Gabriel has lost some oomf- and the storyline with him is bland- but also maybe he's bland because they aren't together. I actually like Alfie, accent aside. He's straightforward, and I like that. The baby storyline will be interesting- but also seems a bit too big a curveball. Overall- still enjoyed it though, and hoping series 4 brings the oomph back.....
