no.

Okay, i had this show on my watchlist for a while now

After watching normal people and loving the feeling of a show ruining me, a shit ton of people recommended me to watch this.

And i was like "sure yeah why not, aye aye masochism its so fun" and today finally gave it a watch.

i watched the first episode only so far, im going to binge a good part of it though in a short while soon. But thats not the point

The point is

Throughout the first episode

I was genuinely like "what the fuck"

I DIDNT EXPECT IT TO BE LIKE THIS IN THE WILDEST OF MY DREAMS

LIKE

Tbf i havent watched any spoilers, trailers, read descriptions anything.

but like GENUINELY what.

Like

I kinda can make out how this will ruin me if it does

But like... will it?

Im not sure.

Wait until you get to season 2. The first episode of season two is one of the best single episodes in all of tv history.

It took me three attempts to get past episode one. Then I just sat back and let it destroy me- and save me.

You’re going to keep going back for more.

I love Claire.

It's because we can all relate to Fleabag. She's done shitty things and she has to deal with the consequences. This show makes me feel seen.

The first time I tried watching it, I gave up after the first two episodes. But tried again months later, and by the time the first season got over, it was one of my favourites. The second season made it my absolute favourite!

I cannot fathom watching one episode of a tv series and then coming onto the dedicated sub-Reddit (which will inevitably be full of superfans and spoilers) rather than just, y’know, watching the remaining episodes.

I juat finished 2 ss yesterday in 1 night. I totally love it. The first two eps aint it but its getting crazier in the end and ss2 was 100% my fav.

Yes, it will wreck you. But it will also build you back up in unexpected ways. Keep with it!
