• Netflix's "Emily in Paris" follows a young American marketing executive, Emily Cooper (Lily Collins), who moves from Chicago to Paris for work.
• The show's first season is a light-hearted, escapist journey through the European city.
• Its representation of Paris and French culture, however, is both stereotypical and at times unrealistic.
• Here are the 23 most improbable moments from the first season of "Emily in Paris."

Netflix's "Emily in Paris" has been blasted by French critics for its unrealistic portrayal of France's capital and the people who live there.

The show follows Emily Cooper (Lily Collins), a young marketing executive who moves from Chicago to Paris for a new job opportunity, despite not being able to speak a lick of French.

The monolingual millennial parades into Savoir, a Parisian marketing firm, on behalf of her Chicago-based company, Gilbert Group who's now their parent company, to offer them an "American perspective."

Not only are there several moments that seem merely impossible outside of the romantic comedy genre, but the show leans into countless stereotypes about French people, presenting them as rude, sexist, and inappropriate.

Filled with berets and baguettes, "Emily in Paris" is, at first glance, a fun, light-hearted watch for viewers seeking a European escape. But in reality, the show creates a caricature of Paris.

Here are 23 of the most improbable moments from the show.
