Wonderful innovative show for people not hung up on women having sex.

It's British humor. If you can't handle it because it is dry and subtle, then move on. The fourth wall breaks are especially clever because they are use to preview what is about to happen because Fleabag's life is continually repeating.

We binge watched both seasons (only 12 episodes) and are very disappointed that Phoebe Waller-Bridge has chosen not to create a third.

Amazingly refreshing comedy for young grown-ups

Oh wow!

This is a show for any 20-40 year olds that don't get hung up on sex, alcohol and religion. The writer is a genious!

After seeing that 2 out of 3 reviews gave the show 1/10 and thought it was horrible, I just had to review it.

I warmly recommend the show to all my fun friends. I wouldn't recommend it to any boring friends or relatives.

I don't see this as typical "British humor". I'm from the nordics and I'm seriously rolling on the floor laughing due to some of the scenes. It's smart, raw, fresh.

+Easy to watch +great fun +likable characters +wants to craving more

Wife and I changed it before the end of the first episode

Breaks 4 wall with witless and not insightful comments. First couple of scenes are about her using her sexuality as a crutch? Yes, it's just not understandable. Why would these guys want to sleep with her? Not funny, not likable and not interested.

HORRIBLE, unless you like...

HORRIBLE, unless you like...an unaware, insecure, desperate female main character; male characters who are mocked and represented as idiots; sex scenes that make humans seem completely desperate, selfish and disgusting; a story line that's depressing. If all of the above was intended by the writers, then you make the world a more awful place with this empty piece of "art". As reviews go, I am generally a positive reviewer. It's depressing that this show was written and that it's won awards. I guess if your life really sucks and your world view is depressing, this might make you feel in good company. When do writers feel the responsibility to actually uplift? When do they begin to see their impact on society? Rather than dredge up all the potentially awful parts of humanity and place it in one show, why not try to improve the world with your writing? How far do you have to go down the dark abyss of humanity's weaknesses, to make a buck? How do you sleep at night?
