'Fleabag' is a British comedy-drama show, written by Phoebe Waller-Bridge herself. She also stars in the lead role.

The critics have raved about this show for its overpowering feminist tones and stance. The show also stars Sian Clifford, Olivia Coleman and Andrew Scott, who plays the role of Moriarty in the BBC 'Sherlock' series.

'Fleabag' premiered on July 21, 2016, and ended on April 8, 2019. It also bagged the Emmy Award for 'Oustanding Comedy Series' and aired on BBC One and BBC Two.
