Much like the reaction to the first season, some fans are noting that the show is binge-worthy and loveable, while admitting the plot isn't 100 per cent perfect. One person summed it up: "Yes, the show is garbage but I'm happy to report Gabriel is even hotter in #EmilyInParis2 than he was in the first season so the show has that going for it! #EmilyInParis."

Another wrote: "Pretty much almost everything in #EmilyinParis is mediocre at best, but holy [expletive] they really nailed the chemistry between Gabriel and Emily whew #EmilyinParisSeason2." A third said: "Emily in Paris in season 2 is still as awful as season 1 but I can’t stop watching #EmilyInParis."

However, others were complimentary to the show. One fan tweeted: "Ashley Park [who plays Mindy Chen] is so ridiculously talented and #EmilyInParis Season 2 showcases that in a myriad of wonderful new ways — including letting her sing in nearly every episode!!!"

Meanwhile, another fan was clearly loving the episodes and had finished all ten in one sitting: "If anyone else is crazy and has already finished #EmilyInParis series two, please DM me cos oh my god I want to talk and talk and talk about it."

Fans have had a big reaction the actors on Emily in Paris

The synopsis for the second series reads: "Now more entrenched in her life in Paris, Emily’s getting better at navigating the city but still struggling with the idiosyncrasies of French life.

"After stumbling into a love triangle with her neighbour and her first real French friend, Emily is determined to focus on her work — which is getting more complicated by the day. In French class, she meets a fellow expat who both infuriates and intrigues her."

The new series also sees new faces, with British actor Lucien Laviscount who portrays Alfie, a fellow non-French speaking expat. But will sparks fly between Alfie and Emily?
