'Flack' Season 1 preview: Will Anna Paquin's fixer Robyn be dark like Ray Donovan or strong like Scandal's Olivia Pope?

Flack, the upcoming show starring Anna Paquin, Sophia Okonedo, Lydia Wilson and Rebecca Benson is all about crisis managers changing the narrative of stories that would otherwise end up as scandals
UPDATED FEB 13, 2019

Actor Anna Paquin plays the role of Robyn, a celebrity crisis manager who does everything possible to stop her client's scandal from hitting the newsstands and that includes resuscitating women who pass out in the middle of sex. She is tough as nails, doesn't get shocked very easily and has no qualms over some of the things she does, which would fall under 'morally questionable character.' She is a fixer, who can make problems of her clients disappear, but when it comes to her personal life, it is a mess. Now that reminds us of two popular fixers in the world of television series. Firstly Raymond Donovan, of the show 'Ray Donovan' and secondly, Olivia Pope from 'Scandal'.
