Fleabag (2016)

Dysfunctional, grim, and unapologetic, 'Fleabag' is about an audacious yet charming anti-heroine who is cruising through life on her wild, wicked terms.

Our little un-named mischief maker (played by Phoebe Waller-Bridge) is grieving the loss of her best friend. She is also struggling to keep her café afloat, personal relationships intact, and life from unraveling. She seems to be in, what can only be described as, a perpetual and carefree tug of war with herself and the world. What's absolutely riveting though, is her nonchalance; and her brazen take on her struggles, social constructs and conventional wisdom.

Throughout the show, she keeps commentating upon her life and shares her darkest and deepest of thoughts by looking straight into the camera and breaking the fourth wall. We, thus, become an integral part of her journey, experiencing it not just as a stranger, but as a friend and as a confidant.

Equipping some of the finest, most inappropriate and wry humor imaginable, it's one of those shows that stay with you for a long time. If you have an appetite for borderline cynical, dry and jagged protagonists, this delight will leave you awestruck.
