Today I want introduce my favourite tv series Fleabag; there are 2 seasons with 12 episodes, which is a British television series that first premiered in 2016. The show is created, written, and stars Phoebe Waller-Bridge as the main character Fleabag; in real life, she also directed the highly popular American TV series Kill Eve season 1 before. My friend recommended this to me.
several years ago, and I would like to recommend it to everybody.
Fleabag is about a young woman living in London who is struggling to deal with the recent loss of her best friend and the guilt she feels over her role in her death. The show follows Fleabag as she navigates her relationships with her family, friends, and lovers while trying to come to terms with her past and find her place in the world. The show also has a unique visual style, with inventive camera senses, and also has a unique soundtrack that adds to the overall colour of the series.
In addition to its creative elements, in my opinion, compared to the trendy shows in the market, there are way less show talking about women completely. Hence, Fleabag deals with important issues such as the struggles of being a modern woman, navigating relationships, and the search for meaning and purpose in life. “The core of comedy is a tragedy”; it is a show that will make you laugh, cry, and think all at the same time. In season 1, there are only 6 episodes, short and punchy for the audience to understand the loneliness and mistakes that define their life. All in all, it is about the desire to love and face the reality of life.
In summary, Fleabag is an intelligent television series that stands out for its unique format, sharp writing, and strong performances. The show has heavy themes but manages to balance them with dark humour. If you are looking for a show that is both entertaining and thought-provoking, Fleabag is worth everybody checking out.
