    Une série anglaise en format court (6 épisodes de 25 mn pour la première saison) qui suit les errements et atermoiements d'une féministe névrosée dans ses conquêtes ou ses non-conquêtes, ses amies un brin demeurées, sa soeur psycho-rigide, son père à l'ouest et j'en passe et des meilleures...

    Libre d'esprit et narquoise, volontiers cynique la femme libérée (?) est une baiseuse et une Don Juanita rafraîchissante par moments mais finalement bien trop lourdingue pour nous faire sourire ou sympathiser. Ses oeillades répétées à la caméra et ses commentaires (en guise de voix off), ses airs désabusés finissent par nous les casser au plus haut point.

    Et je dis pas ça parce qu'elle est féministe mais juste parce qu'elle nous fait chier. Ave ses conneries et ses états d'âme à deux balles. L'humour anglais ici est bien plus provocateur que drôle et se complaît dans une vulgarité certaine que n'aurait pas renié Benny Hill : c'est dire si c'est bas de plafond et décidément très con. En plus d'être vite... très répétitif.    … Expand

    A série falta em sí identidade com a comédia, chegando no final da mesma e infelizmente não gostei da primeira temporada.

    I watched Fleabag thinking it's gonna be something like The Marvelous Mrs Maisel. A comedy series with a female lead who is funny, and has social commentary about how people behave. I had already thought that this is going to be very good. The thumbnail of her crying with her mascara coming out made it seem like it's gonna be something emotional too.

The thumbnail of her crying with her mascara coming out made it seem like it's gonna be something emotional too.
    But it turns out this was a hot pile of garbage. The moment it began with Fleabag trying to be relatable saying, "You know how it feels when you have a one night stand with someone and then realise he's not the kind of a person who you were thinking and something something kissing sex sex?" Yeah sure, who doesn't know how that feels like? It's something that happens everyday, right? I thought it was meant to say unrelatable things in such a way that it seems relatable, but it turns out it wasn't that, because later on she keeps speaking like this the whole show.
    The only thing this serial talks about is banging. There's Fleabag who only keeps thinking about sex, there's the stepmother who makes dicks on the wall, there's Fleabag's boyfriend who keeps texting her to send pictures of genitals because he's horny (seriously, who asks for genitals on being horny?). Her sister is horny, her friends are horny, everyone she dates is horny. No one even thinks logically. Fleabag ruins his mother's party in the last episode because...?
    There are occasional funny scenes like in the beginning of Season 2 where she says her dad is dead but then says he's alive. There are 6 episodes in each season, each episode being less than half an hour which begs the question why is this even a series and not a film. I just ended up wasting time. So overall there's no character development, no humour, no story, no world building, no logic. Just sex jokes.
    There's nothing worthwhile to watch in this pile of garbage. It doesn't have anything that will carry on with you, something you could look back to. You know how much I hated it considering I have never given a 0 star review to any show before.    … Expand

    This Fleabag will make you squirm between laughs. [26 Sep 2016-2 Oct 2016, p.17]

    Eventually, though, what emerges in the series is a nuanced--if slightly bizarre--portrait of a woman in distress.

    Fleabag is an original. ... By the final episode, which I won’t spoil but which touches on themes of forgiveness, her story feels richer than many dramas.
