About Fleabag:
Fleabag is a hilarious and poignant window into the mind of a dry-witted, sexual, angry, grief-riddled woman, as she hurls herself at modern living in London. Award-winning playwright Phoebe Waller-Bridge writes and stars as Fleabag, an unfiltered woman trying to heal, while rejecting anyone who tries to help her and keeping up her bravado all along.

Fleabag Ending Explained | The Takeaway | Prime Video
• Fleabag Ending Explain...
#PrimeVideo #Fleabag - Розваги
Fleabag is a love story, but not the romantic kind. It's about learning to forgive and love yourself.
True
My favourite comment ✨
well, that is . that deserves an adjective of its own that is as popular as ‘romantic’ at least.
and the love you have with another, i mean, fleabag and her sister claire forgive themselves too
just remembering the lines "I love you" "it'll pass" breaks my heart
It never done pass
I think that's one of my all-time favorite exchanges in a tv show
I felt he was also trying to convince himself when he said that
It does though
Love is just your body getting u to procreate
Fleabag is refreshing for being so short. It really puts quality over quantity
Yes! Derry Girls too! It's really short but absolutely perfect.
Old comment, but most British sitcoms are short compared to US shows.
She break up with us. Where do WE put our love for her :'C ?
In ourselves
I'll take it
To rewatches.
@@soraya3422 True!
It'll Pass
“When you find somebody that you love, it feels like hope.”
what if we don't
@@sarayukrishna5162 just go to the pub, you will find it or at least think you do lol
exactly
So true
😭
Everything about Fleabag is just perfect.
I think it’s a love story about Fleabag learning self acceptance.
EXACTLY!!!
And learning that she is lovable
+ i dont know what to do with it
- with what?
+ with all the love i have for her, i dont know where to put it now
this scene really hit me
I'm i only the only person who hates her dad? Talk about learning bad habits from your parents. He shuts down(and her)and she refuses to go through her own grief. The priest seems to be the only male figure that gave her some kind of attention. And not just sexual but intimate loving attention that she's needed.
At the end of the show it emerges that the father had some unresolved issues with Fleabag mum and he just projected to her. However, I find hard to forgive how he abandons his kids just because "my wife was more interesting than me! 😢"
Yeah I hated the dad but it was nice when he said that about her loving
@@purpleflows5680 The whole suppression/repression thing is really interesting. Like there’s that one part where he drops a tray of food and panics and tells fleabag “she mustn’t see”. I feel like that one little line is very telling when it comes to their relationship. Yet later during the sexhibition he says he’s allowed to be happy (with her). Was he really happy or was the relationship with the godmother the only thing he had to fill the hole left by his wife?
Can I share with something
I really hated her father for pushing her and I just realised that my dad does that too , i never analysed his behavior till I see the show. It pisses me off
It seemed to me that he was having a hard time being around her at first because of how similar she is to her mother so she’s a reminder of her when he’s struggling to move on. And seeing someone who is so much like his dead wife suffering through so much pain must be even harder. It’s not kind but it is understandable
i didn't make the connection between the fox and the hot priest's doubts, i always thought it was a random funny gag. great analysis!!
No it's his animal sexuality-- his desires he is afraid of
@@CarolineMartin that makes a lot of sense, thank you
@@CarolineMartin never figured out what the fox could mean, you nailed it. tysm.
I always thought the fox was his self conscious watching over him. When the priest has self doubt or is tempted, the fox appears as a warning. I also think when Phoebe says “he went that way” to the priest at the end, it meant she’s letting him go. Like a final good bye so that she can move on and focus on herself, without a man and without her “friends” on the other side of the screen.
@@sweetsakura0587 Not sure about this. If it is, then the Priest should find the appearance of the fox reassuring, no? If the fox helps guide him to the right path away from self-doubt and temptation, why is he deathly terrified of it?
Claire's hairstyle and that hideous painting of both the sisters during the wedding is EVERYTHING 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great review. My own personal take: I don't see it as a break up with "us". I actually see it more as "I will be ok" and "no need to cry" more than breaking up with her audience. I think the relationship she has with her audience depicts the relationship all of us have with our inner selves -it is what we really think, react, feel... we all have that. We all talk to ourselves... and some people will have the ability to see that, or even "hear" our thoughts.
Wasn't until this video that I realized I'd love a 3rd season, but solely about the Priest and how he deals with... his fox.
YES PLEASE
Great idea! I bet Andrew Scott might like it, too.
I thought she was talking to her dead friend, which made it more heart-breaking at the end.
Same.
Never crossed my mind but hmm..
Same here, and it kind of got confirmed in that scene with the priest in the Cafe
@@MrH3nryx how?
This show is incredible... Would probably call this the closest to perfect!
I want to say I need season 3.
But 2nd season ending it's so perfect already 10/10
It could be about the priest and the fox
She said she'll make another when she's fifty
"Take the foxes, the little foxes that ruin the vineyard of our love" reference to song of songs verse in the bible? Fleabag is the fox, threatening to ruin the priest's love for God, maybe
You know, that's what baffles me. At the end, Fleabag realises that she's not just a burden to her loved ones. This symbolism, Fleabag being the metaphorical fox that puts a strain on the priest's relationship with God, reduces her, yet again, to nothing more than an obstacle for the person she loves and I feel that just leaves her back to square one. Then again, I may see it that way because I'm against celibacy. Love and devotion to God should not hinder love and devotion to another person.
Wow I didn't realise the deeper meaning behind this
@@user-do4te4is9k Maybe to the mind of the priest she is. It does reduce her, but that's what doubts are like.
Fleabag is a master class in how to make a series. Twelve chapters of twenty-odd minutes, which treats the viewer intelligently and with a superb ending, definitely one of my favorite series.
I always gonna love the end of Fleabag! I have a deep connection with the show, cause when I was watching, my heart was broken, and my mental health didn't exist, so see her dealing with her own mess in the best way she could, at those times, made me feel less immature. I really enjoyed seeing her ended the show better with herself, that end gave me hope.
By the way, I am better now. So thank you, Fleabag! And thank you to my therapist too.
feeling this deep connection with her myself right now. I have such a hard time watching television with the depressive spirals I get, I have comparison problems when the characters are too gorgeous or have some life I'd like to have in literally anyway at all. Always sunny in philidelphia is one of the only shows that doesn't trigger any of that and this show is in that category too-- although now that I just finished it I do want to cry. May all the fleabags of the world one day walk away from their internal audience.
The master piece of Waller-Bridge. It's so good to see The Take still growing up.
I would love to see an episode of Mrs. Maisel, Upload and Superstore.
I finished the ENTIRE SHOW in two nights. I have NO REGRETS. 😎
One Night here:D
One night
One night here too
Six months here
SAAAME
This is surely one of the greatest TV shows of the decade. Brilliantly written, solidly acted and brimming with wit, poignancy and carefully constructed characters that represents the timely themes with strong execution. This finale was bittersweet as well as pretty satisfying
“Oh, don't make me an optimist. You will ruin my life.”
Claire saying ‘Disgusting’ is what I love for 😂
Fleabag and Mr Robot have had singularly breathtaking storytelling devices that deepened the portrayal of PTSD and other mental health issues in film/TV. Heartfelt, authentic, awesome storytelling.
Brene Brown and Charlie Kaufman would be proud!
In the last scene at the bus stop, behind Fleabag on the wall is written 'Животе', which in Bulgarian is a form of аddressing 'life'. 'Живот' means 'life'.
мне показалось ,что по-русски
What a brilliant brilliant brilliant actor she is. Fantastic show. You don't always have to invent new fancy superpowers to make something entertaining.
She wrote herself that's the reason reason she could act nicely too. Phoebe waller bridge is a perfect writer
I think this show might have saved my life, because for so long I’ve never known how to describe my own experiences with grief and loss. Now I do. I have so much love to give and I never know where to put it anymore, and it’s kind of been destroying me from the inside out. The answer, simply, is to find all the ways you can put all of that love into yourself. That’s how, I think, you become whole again.
i've been thinking about this
it put words into something I was feeling
I've always thought that you can only feel love either by loving someone or being loved by someone. This show made me realize that self love i also important. That loving myself is more than enough for me to live and survive this beautiful life
Watched season 2 multiple times. It was like a great movie, probably my favorite show.
Likewise. I recently watched it. Loved it. Can't get over priest and fleabag
I've just cried watching this video. I loved everything about this series -- EVERYTHING. Brilliant writing, acting, messaging -- I mean, such genius at work on my heartstrings. Thank you, PWB.
A show so affecting just watching this takeaway makes me cry all over again like the first time I saw both seasons
I don't get how ppl have emotional reactions to this show..I can't identify at all with her though I like the show and all its symbolism
@@CarolineMartin Why you need to identify with her?
More the takeaway please! I wanna hear everything they have to say about marvelous mrs.maisel, and Mozart in the jungle!!!!
My anxiety goes through the roof when i think about I don't know her characters name! The character i love and care about, want to see her future , really don't know her name! I mean i want to know her name! What os it?????????
Fleabag was as childhood nickname for Phoebe
Performances are the center. That deep connection that exists between her and the priest stirs something inside. Something that breaks your heart but at the same time fills us with hope. Loving is something so beautiful that the very idea of losing it makes it destroy us inside. We have to have the courage to let in what we know has the power to destroy but trust that it will not. And if it does, if it destroys us, knowing that (as they say in Moulin Rouge) what is wonderful is to love and feel loved. We keep learning, we keep failing, we keep hurting with our mistakes. But let's continue with an open heart and everything somehow leads us to one of many happiness. I love that a show like fleabag that seems so full of cynicism can leave such a beautiful background message
For me, Fleabag is the best story ever told. The execution is flawless; there are no comparisons. That makes watching anything else very difficult. However, I finally watched "Killing Eve," and it was very good. But I don't think that anything will touch me as personally as Fleabag did. It truly cracked my heart wide open.
I’m still so curious about why the priest specifically can tell where the camera is, he looks at it and screams in one scene specifically, I’d assume it’s because he KNOWS her, he loves her most out of all the other characters in such a permanent way. I kinda love that to be honest, love changes everything, including the show and its solid structure. I also didn’t clock the fox thing having a meaning, but damn do I want reassurance in how all the characters lived the rest of their lives, what happened and if they were happy, things like that.
PWB is too brilliant a writer to give us all that you want. Who knows what tomorrow brings in YOUR life. We are all sailing on an unpredictable ocean. That's what makes life thrilling. Grab this precious life with a passionate force and take the knocks and the love in equal measure. For we all die.
Why is this show not talked about as much as it should? Great that Amazon got the The Take to do an analysis on it.
I literally freaked out when The Priest looked into the camera with Fleabag😅😅
Yes you nailed it in every aspect of it. It is a love story also of grief and growing for her and everything about her life. The end oh gosh it was perfect for it not to be a happy ending but the lines “I love you” and his response “It I’ll pass” was so bittersweet
I just finished watching the show just a few hours ago and can't help feel like this is an analysis about my own life😲. Absolutely loved it.
It's such a captivating and moving story, I recommend it to everyone. It's really fantastic
This made me cry on a cold winter night . Thank you @thetake
Thank you for making me cry again! This show hurts so much and yet is so beautiful.
I was and always so moved by her journey. Thank you The Take for bring back the tears after the ending of season finale again to my eyes.
One of the most creative, original endings I’ve ever seen.
I love how The Take ladies are breaching out ! Their content is amazing and I’m so here to see them GROW
I love hearing you two talk about Fleabag. I hope there'll eventually be a video about Claire.
I am so scared. Will I ever love again? And what's even more scary, will anybody ever dare to love me again?
fleabag and the hot priest, they both learned a lot from their relationship
I obsessively tried to find this Kyrie theme 15 minutes ago because it suddenly started to play in my head to find out that there’s a new video about Fleabag. Love it.
Now I’m waiting for a fox to appear.....
This analysis was fantastic, you really captured the genius behind Pheobe's work
Greatest show I've seen in a really long time. I cried my eyes out.
I cried too...
The first show I watched on Prime Video only weeks ago and it did not disappoint! So glad The Take is doing an analysis on it because it sure leaves a lot to be discussed.
there is something else, i'm not sure if it was planned or is just the coincidence to end all coincidences but when fleabag is sitting at that bus stop at the end of the last ep, there is "ЖИВОТЕ" spray painted on the plastic wall (or whatever it's called) of the bus stop, it's like center frame, can't miss it. So "ЖИВОТЕ" translates to "oh life!", with either a pissed off or joking undertone depending on the situation, and in all south slavic languages (maybe other slavic languages too, not sure) is used in the same way, when something shitty happens people just throw out the "oh life!" but there's always an unspoken "what the hell did i do to deserve this" that goes with it. and i had fun with that, it's kinda loaded and adds quite a bit to that ending, if indeed it was intentionally put in. but it does seem a bit too obscure to be a possible reading. i wanted to share anyway, yall can do whatever you want with it
Barely discovered this show and saw it all in 3 sittings. It was perfection. I've never loved a show this much.
My god! Thank you for this video so much! I was waiting for the take's take on one of the best shows ever!
The fox is his imaginary bugbear, much like the "audience" that Fleabag uses as her defense mechanism. He could perceive us and now she can perceive the fox(es). It means that he's still on his journey and there is hope (love) that they may reunite someday.
I never seen this episode but I felt like yall was reading my life...another great video
I wish I could watch this series for the first time again, such a masterpiece
The fox is still following the priest LOL
I watch all your videos and really appreciate them. Keep up with the good work! Thank you!
Fleabag is just perf! When I watched the Monologue, I really enjoyed it. Then when I found out it was turned into a series, I was just ecstatic.
I just cried like a baby at the end :(
Genius of a series this one! ❤️
I just finished watching this yesterday!!!!! I’m so excited to see this analysis 🤗
Fleabag is us. We are fleabag.
I just loved that show. She is a brilliant actor and writer.
I love the Take!! I hope they TAKE over UA-cam!
God this show was spectacular!!!!! Especially season 2. Kinda sad that we won't be getting more seasons 😭
I love everything about this show! Love that part about considering the audience as her friends. Andrew Scott!!!
I loved the show!! It was so well writed and performed that it just brilliant. I didn’t get the ending so I’m very glad you did this video. I’m also happy for “Fleabag” and I like to think that I helped her cope with her pain by just being imaginary there…..but I must say I didn’t get closure between her and the priest… and I’m in pain 😭
currently half past three in the morning , i’ve just finished binging the whole show and IM SO FULL OF FEELINGS trying to find peace in explanation vids so it stop consuming me and lets me sleep lmao
I'm crying again over Fleabag, thank you so much The Take Team
I just finished this the other week! I think it’s a best tv comedy I seen in a very long time.
Thankyou for doing this THE TAKE.
this is one the few shows that really made me cry at the end 😩 started this show when i had just moved to a new place and was newly single and when she waved goodbye it really felt like I was saying bye to a friend. so so good!
I wish this show was still being made. My absolute favorite
Good analysis. Would like to see an analysis of Undone. There is so much potential there
Thank you so much for this, loved Fleabag so much
Yo, this series is amazing ! more of the take on amazon prime!
She’s one of my favorite storytellers!!!
it's hard to watch this. cause i can see myself in her. and it's just sad growing old and hurting.
Although her life seemed messed up...the hard part will come after the ending...getting up and rebuild your life again...that’s the hard part
I did find Chase and Stephen's guinea pigs in the cafe, and chatting amusing! That actual conversation was actually on a jump-seat going to Tel Aviv and Chase was a 1 year old. And liked her black and white knitted jumper and baggy trousers with elasticated waistband and Bridget Jones style gurdle underwear and the conversations together. Very conservative and old fashioned dress sense. It was actually navy blue top and navy blue baggy old lady trousers with a drawer string but the same style.
I love Fleabag and i loved this video so much. Please do The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel next time.
Oh God! Please give us another season. I can’t get over this ending
THE TAKE(AWAY) AND FLEABAG!! I LOVE THIS ALREADY
Love the ladies from the Take!! Please do Manchester by the Sea!!
Fleabag is a masterpiece. One of the true great tv endings.
The way I identify with the character is kind of worrying, I went through similar things...But it's okay now, I hope so.
Oh boy, this video got me in the feels!!
Big things that I probably missed watching Fleabag make weight now
When I seen her on the short film omeleto, I knew she was going to be something great, she has something to her nobody else does.
The Take talking about Fleabag
omg I just ended, I was balling in that confessional scene it was so goooood. She's such an amazing actress
i was searching for this video on tha take channel . finally found it
This series deserves a second, maybe third viewing
Loved that show! I understand why it ended, but was sad we didn't get to see more of her journey. 😔
Fleabag's life mirrors my life. (Minus the hot priest though)
I miss her terribly.
I was a bit let down by the second season...until this essay explained it for me. Superbly explained.
Whaaat!!??? Let down? Bizarre.
The take always have the best analysis
