'Fleishman Is in Trouble' is a Trojan horse for women's stories, says Lizzy Caplan | Fresh Air

The series Fleishman Is in Trouble is about marriage, parenthood, and middle age. Lizzy Caplan plays Libby, a mom and journalist who is struggling with identity since moving to the suburbs. Caplan's other films and TV shows include Mean Girls, Party Down, and Freaks and Geeks. She was nominated for an Emmy for her work in the series Masters of Sex. She spoke with Fresh Air's Ann Marie Baldonado.

Loved this series and wished there was a new season but it is what it is and I appreciate what it was. So much.

I think she has a nice voice and a very pretty face, contrary to what she said.
