Two episodes into it, and we absolutely love The Mysterious Benedict Society. A quirky fun mix of fantasy/reality. Excellent set designs and musical score to match.

Hopefully the remaining seasons episodes are equally enjoyable.

Highly recommended!

I'm not normally into "shoot-em-ups". And if I've seen one time-loop movie....... Many reviewers are comparing this to other movies (in a complementary way).

I'll add another: A "Guardian's of the Galaxy" soundtrack to boot!

Based on the ending, I'm hoping for a sequel.

So it's 2am and I desperately need to get to bed. Nevertheless I'm compelled to write this review. (Which I rarely do.)

As a single, straight, white male (born in the States, of French heritage and speaks the language) I probably wouldn't be considered the target audience for this show. However I found Emily in Paris to be absolutely charming. The actors are endearing. The storyline refreshingly simple. And the location? It's Paris! Ignore the "movie-critic-wannabees" who think they understand the cultural differences between France and America. They can't see the "forest for the trees". The show is meant to be a light-hearted romp through one of the most romantic cities in the world. Viewed through the eyes of a young woman who's learning to navigate career, romance, and the highs and lows that each bring.

Cliches? Does everything have to be new and original? I'm perfectly ok with cliches if they're done well.

I think we can all use a little joy and romance during these times (hell, all the time!) So if you want to take a trip but don't want to deal with travel at this time. Sit back, relax with a bowl of popcorn and join Emily in Paris!
