‘Emily in Paris’ Season 5 Gets Worst Rotten Tomatoes Score But Is Streaming No.1 on Netflix

by

Emily in Paris remains a puzzling success story in the world of television. Despite consistently negative reviews from viewers, the Netflix series starring Lily Collins continues to be renewed for new seasons – a fate many critically acclaimed shows haven’t shared. Even as audience opinions worsen with each release, the show consistently climbs to the top of Netflix’s most-watched list.

The show Emily in Paris first came out in 2020 and follows Emily Cooper, a marketing professional, as she moves to France to pursue romance and her career. While the first season received mixed reviews – 61% from critics and 54% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes – the latest season has seen a small improvement with critics (71%), but a record-low 41% audience score.

The latest episodes introduced a new format, with Emily moving to Rome for most of Season 5, but this change hasn’t been well-received. While the show has a dedicated fanbase, many viewers seem to be losing interest in Emily, no matter where the story takes her. As one viewer expressed it:

“Every season is the same story and it’s become very monotonous and tired.”

Viewership and reviews for the series are declining, mirroring the fading interest in Emily’s love life. While some viewers are calling this season the worst yet, and others believe the show should have ended after season three, it’s clear the issues go beyond just a predictable storyline.

‘Emily in Paris’ Called Out Over Errors

Season 5 of Emily in Paris might be the show’s breaking point. Critics are saying the latest season feels uninspired and relies too much on past success, suggesting it may be time to wrap up Emily’s story in Europe.

This season has received a lot of criticism online, particularly because viewers have noticed several obvious mistakes in the show’s continuity. For example, eagle-eyed fans on Reddit spotted a scene early in the season where Emily appeared to be wearing both green high heels and knee-high boots at the same time, leading to complaints about a lack of attention to detail.

While these mistakes aren’t major, they’re overshadowed by criticism of the show’s repetitive writing and plotlines. Despite this, the series remains incredibly popular on Netflix, proving Emily continues to attract a large audience.
