                        Fleabag
                     (to camera) 
Oh my god, oh my god. What am I going to say, what am I going to say...? 
                    (to the room) 
I sometimes worry-
                           (beat) 
-that I wouldn't be such a feminist if I had bigger tits.

Fleabag fundamentally changed me as a human and now I fancy priests. I cannot overstate how much I love this series and the scripts are such a vital part of it. The stage directions and scene setting notes add context and depth to what is already such a poignant piece of art.

this show was a masterpiece. i bought the scriptures just so i could annotate it and look back at my favorite scenes over and over again. Phoebe Waller-Bridge, you absolute genius.

Minor: Ableism and Transphobia

there are two things that bother me. one: the conversation between fleabag and belinda has some outdated feminist ideas that definitely exclude the experiences of trans people. It’s just one conversation but it’s noticeable. two: jake, the teenage son of one of the characters, is given some stereotypically autistic traits and then regularly called creepy. felt a little off! idk! im adding transphobia and ableism to the tw solely bc of those two instances
