Flack: Anna Paquin starring Pop show is about morally flawed female protagonists, but will it fly?

Paquin's upcoming show is about the world of celebrity PR where she plays the role of a crisis strategists who goes around putting out media fires started by her star clients.

Flack is a series about a group of professional women who go around putting out media fires created by their celebrity clients. From drug use, alcohol abuse, and sexual encounter gone wrong to faking pregnancies - the main characters in this show starring Anna Paquin, Sophie Okonedo, Lydia Wilson, Genevieve Angelson and Rebecca Benson capture the lives of women who are ready to do anything to save their client from another scandal.

Their decisions and their methods may be immoral but that doesn't seem to bother these women one bit. How writer Oliver Lansley has perceived these women without any prejudice attached is a double-edged sword that could either lead to the protagonist's self-realization or shame.

From what we have seen so far of the Pop show, it could be both.
