Just caught up on this new series (it's 4 X 30min episodes in)......I'm already hooked. Hilarious with pathos. Like a little cookie of a show, an enjoyable nibble that fills you up just right.

I do have a quirky sense of humour though.

Anyone else enjoy it? (Or even watching it?)

Yes, there's another thread about it.

Funny show.

I heard her interview on Woman's Hour about the stage version and moving it to television.

Absolutely hilarious. And also incredibly refreshing for a BBC tv character I think. The main character masturbating over Obama speeches cracks me up!

I was very surprised to hear the 'C' word used on the BBC. They've beaten channel 4 to it I think.

An entertaining comedy drama though.

Such a great writer. I'd be disappointed not to have the character return, but, as I've said before, she's destined to have a massive impact on contemporary culture so I'll look forward to following her career.

I’ve still got this week’s episode to watch, it’s an incredible program - brilliantly written and she plays it perfectly.

I don’t canid she doesn’t write any more of that, just let them exist as tiny episodes of everything humour is about: sadness, difficulties, people and just getting through it

One of the best tv shows I’ve seen.

Every character , line, scene, the pieces to camera is brilliant.

As someone mentioned , covering love , lust, pain, sorrow, heartache and all, just genius.

Where can I get my own Fleabag??

Utterly brilliant series - I really enjoyed it, and Phoebe Waller-Bridge is a phenomenally talented writer and performer. I LOVE those little asides to camera that she does.

I was really disappointed to discover that the New York run of the play ends on Sunday - we fly to JFK on Monday.

I started a thread on Pose when it started. It's brilliant.

The other recommendation I'd give people is Chewing Gum. It may not be available now but is a younger, black, working class Fleabag.
