Fleabag I thought it would be fun

OP here I think I am just a weirdo because I love her but it’s just so sad.

It is sad, you’re right. But it’s also thought provoking and lovely and heart wrenching.

It is a lovely lovely show. Season 2 is just superbly clever, and the family dynamics, and her sister’s crush and dad’s crazy wedding, and the fact that the priest is the only one who notices that thing (no spoilers!)

I enjoyed it, but I also felt sorry for her. There’s another thread where we discussed the show, and I pointed out that she’s not a hero; rather, she’s a sad/bad person who consistently makes selfish choices.

And...the actor who plays the priest is gay IRL. I suppose the majority of the people watching didn’t realize that (although he’s a fairly well known actor). Both stars of the show were shocked that he became known as “hot priest.”

He is in Modern Love on Prime right now as one of the gay dads.

I liked the first season sort of, but I thought it was uneven. Thought the second season was far better. I would start with season 2. They aren’t that connected.

Try season 2, episode 1.

Right. But he’s been gay for decades, and it’s widely known. He’s a popular actor in the U.K. And like Nico Tortorella/Younger, he’s obviously not straight.

I think women went nuts for him because of his accent and swearing.

And. My grandma (and everyone else’s) had a thing for Richard Chamberlain in Thornbirds, what else is new. Irrelevant or ads to the trope,.

Wait, wasn't he Moriarty on Sherlock? I can get past the gay thing, but he's Moriarty. NOT HOT TO TRY TO KILL BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH.

They’re very connected! The bronze sculpture recurs throughout the series. And the stepmother is hilariously awful.

I think he’s hot because of her, everything she thinks is hot I then believe is hot.

Bad advice. You’ll cheat yourself of some of the pleasure of season 2.

So true! I feel the same way.

Same here. Not a funny show. And I don’t like when female nudity is shown in a tv show for women.
