The final scene where she breaks down


So strong and completely relatable. There have been times in the past and there will definitely be times in the future when i think that the only thing I have going for me is my sexuality, that the only way I can be momentarily happy is knowing someone else is happy from using my body.

Apart from the obvious comedic genius of Pheobe, I think she has put forward a very interesting vulnerability not seen on tv before and look forward to more seasons of fleabag (or any other project she is working on)

This and 'Flowers' have been the best things ive seen on british tv for years.

What about the forests?...... NOPE!

I agree. The psychology of this movie is very accurate and (unfortunately) relatable.

I suspect the writer has been in therapy.

The emotional reality goes beyond Fleabag to all the supporting cast. It's an exception show that way.

I can't remember the exact thing she says but it's something like I don't understand if this is normal and people are hiding it better or if it isn't and I'm just broken.

Which just hit me so hard. Brilliant moment. I was crying then screaming at the TV when the bank clark left then cheering when he came back.

I don't know if a 2nd season could work but I seriously hope it can cos I want more.

Yes, these are some of the most insightful comments on the show I've read.
