The beauty of this show is that you (the audience) are her imaginary friend. Your presence is her coping mechanism. You’re along for the ride but she’s an unreliable narrator because she doesn’t want to show you or even admit to herself how she’s really doing. So it’s like a mystery to find out why you’re there. That’s why it’s incredible. It’s original to have the audience be a character in someone’s head. Plus it’s funny, tragic, raw, and just so human.
I binge watched the whole 12 episodes in one night, i laughed so much and almost cried at some parts It's a show that doesn't need more seasons bc it's already perfect
I watched all of s1 & didn't laugh once. None of the characters are interesting or likeable. Talking to the camera frequently is disruptive & annoying.
@@davidz3879 That’s weird because you’re commenting under a video of MEN who loved the show and almost died laughing at least twice. Just recognise this isn’t your type of humor and go. It has nothing to do with male or female, Jesus Christ.
Fleabag is flipping amazing. The second series is incredible. It was created and written by Phoebe Waller-Bridge and was originally a one woman play at the Edinburgh Festival.
I hope you love this show as much as I did! (side note, in case no one mentioned it.... Fleabag (Phoebe Waller Bridge) was the writer for Season 1 of 'Killing Eve')
It's very interesting to see you guys react to the fourth wall breaking. It's quite common in British comedy. Even when I was younger there were a few kids shows I watched that used that technique too. I've never seen this show but based off your reaction I might give it a go. This was a lot of fun guys :)
@@davidz3879 Not recent but "Secret Diary of a Call Girl" and "Miranda" (sitcom) used it and other shows when I was growing up as well, but they came on randomly on TV so I wouldn't know the name. "Peep Show" did something similar although it was POV more than 4th wall breaking. I don't watch TV nowadays so I wouldn't know if Fleabag is the only show in recent times using that style. For me, the 4th wall breaking felt very normal so when they commented on it I found that perspective really interesting.
Phoebe Waller-Bridge is a genius, she wrote this for stage, it was a play... It became so successful that was turned into a series. She is an amazing writer, she wrote the last 007, No time to die.
The guy on the bus is referred to in the show's credits as "Bus Rodent" The woman giving the lecture is Phoebe Waller-Bridge's mother Fleabag S1 was remade almost shot by shot in France under the title "Mouche" with the main character played by Camille Cottin
Sooo happy that you're reacting to Fleabag!! Two of the most perfect seasons of TV. Brilliant writing, direction, acting!! Season 2 is actually the most perfect season I've ever seen. Pure laughs!
This series is so well written, the pacing of the scenes is perfect. You ask a question and the script answers it right away. This episode is one of the best in the series, it presents the characters objectively and at the same time makes breaking the fourth wall seem natural from the first minutes.
season 2 of this show is PHENOMENAL. her character is really unlikeable in the first season i find, but the second season you grow to love her as a character
There was a real battle between this and outer banks on the Patreon I love fleabag it’s a great show hopefully after this you guys do outer banks as I was rooting for that one but I’m still glad your doing this
No matter how many times I see it - this show cracks me up! Oscar winning Olivia Coleman as the godmother is soo good. How do you like our weird British humour so far?
Fleabag is side-splitting funny. S2 moreso. Nice reaction, you guys. I found the whole breakup scene extremely hilarious 😂 . I'm pretty sure I read somewhere this show was among Obama's favorite shows list. 🤣
So this show, this first season specifically is adapted from her one woman show of the same name. So that's why she breaks the 4th wall a lot. Because the original is her just telling this story to a live audience for like an hour and a half. It's so freaking good. You guys are really going to enjoy the rest of the show. I recommend looking for the one woman show and just watching it on your own time if you can, just to see the difference and how they're both masterpieces in their own right
The priest is played by Andrew Scott who gave an insanely amazing performance as James Moriarity in the Sherlock Holmes series starring Benedict Cumberbatch & Martin Freeman. That might be a good show for you guys!
I want to binge the reactions already the same how I binge fleabag when I first check it out. Btw it was Phoebe's Mom giving the speech and She also insist the role of Claire to be given to that actress (forgot the name) Claire is my favorite ❤️
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO this show has a really deep meaning behind it it’s literally a masterpiece and I could go on and on about it but you guys should come to that conclusion on your own :DDDD super excited for y’all to get up to season 2
For sure one of the best shows of recent years. Phoebe is a genius! Glad to get to rewatch with y’all and see how y’all enjoy the turns it takes. Found this channel recently and really enjoy it. Makes me feel like I’m back in college watching and commenting on stuff with my buddies! Thanks from Nashville 👍
I watched these episodes a good year odd ago and loved them. She's like a guy, enjoying her best life but creates issues for herself as she goes, you can see her pretty much kicking herself for every conquest, she gets disgusted at herself and then that good old ego kicks in. Genius humour to.
Hyyyyyped! Adore this show and am so excited to see you guys watch it. Glad you could feel empathy for her as sometimes other reactors have initially found her very abrupt/unpleasant - which she kinda is... but it's evident that it comes from a place of pain.
THIS SHOW IS LITERALLY A MASTERPIECE especially season 2 in my opinion it’s so amazing
Andrew Scott as the Priest is to die for he's so freaking good
Season 2 Ep 1 is one of my favorite episodes of television ever
it isnt a masterpeice, it is a female and bbc alternative to channel 4;s Peep Show which is the real masterpeice
I've watched all of s1 but none of s2. I'd heard loads of people say it's brilliant, but I didn't laugh once.
@@channel55andaboxoftissues16 PS is far better.
“don’t tell me this is another love story i can’t handle”
…season 2 is gonna hit like a train lmao
omg

@@davidz3879 *in your opinion… at least 282 people so far seem to disagree :))
@@laura.r365 Perhaps it's because I'm a man. It looks like it's for a female audience. I rarely hear a woman say she loves Peep Show.
@@davidz3879 That’s weird because you’re commenting under a video of MEN who loved the show and almost died laughing at least twice. Just recognise this isn’t your type of humor and go. It has nothing to do with male or female, Jesus Christ.
@@a.j.1819 The vast majority of people whom I've heard say they love Fleabag are female.
Season 2 is FIRE 🔥
season 1 is amazing but season 2 is a masterpiece
Agree
Why did Fleabag become very popular when s2 was shown? Few people watched or talked about it before 2019.
Ok you guys have struck GOLD watching this series. Please watch both seasons if possible, you guys won’t regret it!
oh this is going to be great lmao enjoy the british humor guys!!
Fleabag is flipping amazing. The second series is incredible. It was created and written by Phoebe Waller-Bridge and was originally a one woman play at the Edinburgh Festival.
Why is it called Fleabag? She's not underclass.
Yes! I wish after this someone would recommend Derry Girls its short in terms of duration and episodes and its hilarious.
derry girls is so hilarious not enough people react to it either
yessss!
yes they def need to watch derry girls
YESSSS
100% Right though they will need Sub Titles:)
What a pleasant surprise to see you guys react to this show. Its the best kind of humor; dark, humbling, and well executed
I hope you love this show as much as I did! (side note, in case no one mentioned it.... Fleabag (Phoebe Waller Bridge) was the writer for Season 1 of 'Killing Eve')
Both series are utterly fantastic. You are going to love them. Looking forward to seeing this and the rest.

Which other recent UK sitcoms include that?

Season 2 is amazing. Really makes all the set up in season 1 worth it.
you're probably one of the first channels to react to this show on yt which makes me so excited, it's a masterpiece!
I've watched numerous reactions to Fleabag for over 2 years so they are very late to the Fleabag reaction party.
There’s been a lot of reactions actually
The guy on the bus is referred to in the show's credits as "Bus Rodent"
The woman giving the lecture is Phoebe Waller-Bridge's mother
Fleabag S1 was remade almost shot by shot in France under the title "Mouche" with the main character played by Camille Cottin
I did not know that was her Mum!
Cant wait for u to watch S2!! Its awesome
Sooo happy that you're reacting to Fleabag!! Two of the most perfect seasons of TV. Brilliant writing, direction, acting!! Season 2 is actually the most perfect season I've ever seen. Pure laughs!

I watched these episodes a good year odd ago and loved them. She's like a guy, enjoying her best life but creates issues for herself as she goes, you can see her pretty much kicking herself for every conquest, she gets disgusted at herself and then that good old ego kicks in. Genius humour to.

Omff yessssss I love you guys for reacting to this
This season is brilliant, and season 2 is incredible! So glad you're doing this!
