Emily in Paris was brought to life by the same creative mind that brought us Sex and the City – and while the shows share a few general similarities, one of the biggest is that their central characters are… kind of annoying.

What is it that sets Carrie apart from Emily?

Millennials are finally starting to hit middle age (hard to believe, but it's true!) but are taking things in a new direction that *doesn't* mean giving up their youth.

But instead of the stable mid-adulthood we’ve become accustomed to seeing in previous generations, millennials seem to be taking things in a rather different direction, embracing a second wave of young adulthood while also trying to figure out how to navigate the total instability of their lives and the world around them. This could be easy to write off as yet another refusal to grow up and be “real adults” – but the truth is that there’s a lot more going on under the surface, and it’s not all bad.
