There are problems beyond the endlessly yapping voiceover. I don’t recall the Toby of the novel being such a tiresome, self-righteous whinger. Unlike in the book, his dating app escapades appear dated and sleazy. Ultimately, Fleishman Is in Trouble is strongest when viewed as a fortysomething New York cautionary tale.

Illuminating and destabilising, Fleishman Is in Trouble is the kind of show that makes you want to grab people by the shoulders and shake them, to shout "watch this!"

The narration is sharp and there are countless good lines – “Toby liked to say that the end of his marriage happened like the fall of Rome – slowly, then all at once” – but it keeps the audience at a certain remove. But maybe that’s a good thing: best not to get totally immersed in these awful lives.
