Critics Consensus

Clever and viciously funny, Fleabag is a touching, wildly inventive comedy about a complicated young woman navigating the aftermath of trauma.

Kelly Lawler USA Today 11/10/2021 Hilarious, emotional and utterly surprising, the British comedy created by (and starring) Phoebe Waller-Bridge as a struggling young woman, deserves the hype (and all those Emmys). Go to Full Review Hank Stuever Washington Post 01/25/2019

"Fleabag" starts off like a dirtier "Bridget Jone's Diary," but it soon develops into a more nuanced and heartbreaking (still humorous) novella about a person trying to find her truest self.

8/10

The performances are essential to the effectiveness of its comedy. Even though it feels like Waller-Bridge is deeply improvising, the best moments are the dramatic ones, cause she slaps the parameters of a society in decline.

Sebastian G @s3b0cs 5d Great I really liked the refreshing movie style. See more Tristan B @tristan3 Jun 17 [BOT] Not for everyone but i adored it. See more Pauline W @Paulwall Apr 26 Absolutely awful drama about a narcissistic woman. Used really basic slapstick humour to convey the emptiness of deeply flawed character. Cheap tactic. Feels to me like the paintings of people who can't paint but are rated by those in the know who also can't paint. If breaking the fourth wall means a drama is good just because that is innovative, it implies anything new is good. This is not. See more Jessica D. @jenida Feb 14 One of the greatest television shows of all time. See more Gabriel P @otavio357 Feb 2 Texto afiado e ótimas atuações. Me tirou risadas, mas, de modo geral, não achei o ouro que todo mundo fala. See more Adam W @Serieslover123 Jan 24 Sadly not funny to me but can see the appeal for the generation that finds anything funny See more Read all reviews
