Fleabag is a British comedy-drama television series created and written by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, based on her one-woman show first performed in 2013. It was originally produced by Two Brothers Pictures for digital channel BBC Three in a co-production agreement with Amazon Studios.[1][2] Waller-Bridge stars as a free-spirited and sexually active but angry and confused young woman in London. Sian Clifford and Olivia Colman also star, while Andrew Scott joined the cast in the second series. The protagonist frequently breaks the fourth wall to provide exposition, internal monologues, and a running commentary to the audience.[3]
While she is customarily referred to as "Fleabag" in reviews and
commentary (including this article) due to the title of the show, she is
never given a name on camera.
The show premiered on 21 July 2016 and concluded its second and final series on 8 April 2019.[4][5]
It received widespread acclaim from critics, particularly for its
writing, acting, and the uniqueness and personality of the title
character. Waller-Bridge won the British Academy Television Award for Best Female Comedy Performance for the first series. The second series received 11 Primetime Emmy Award
nominations and won six, with Waller-Bridge earning Outstanding Comedy
Series, Outstanding Lead Actress, and Outstanding Writing for a Comedy
Series; additional acting nominations were received by Clifford, Colman,
and guest stars Fiona Shaw and Kristin Scott Thomas.[6][7] The series received the Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series and Best Actress for Waller-Bridge, and a nomination for Scott.
The show is adapted from Waller-Bridge's 2013 Edinburgh Festival Fringe one-woman play of the same name which won a Fringe First Award.[10][11][12]
The initial idea of the character of Fleabag came from a challenge by a
friend, where Waller-Bridge was given the task of creating a sketch for
a 10-minute section in a stand-up storytelling night.[13]
