"Flack" is a drama about a take-no-prisoner public-relations professional named Robyn who is an American working for a London based firm. Robyn is unflappable in her PR job and her ability to get her high-profile very wayward ill-behaved celebrity clients out of potentially embarrassing situations is unparalleled. However, her ability to get her clients out of these messes does not translate into her own life as Robyn tries to get her own life back on track while juggling her job.

Critics Consensus

Audiences looking for an arsenic cookie of a series may cut Flack some slack, but its cynical take on publicity is exacerbated by hyperbolically unpleasant, underdeveloped characters.

I can't think of another show that's half as insightful about entertainment in the age of social media and #MeToo. It's also the most fun I've had watching TV in months.

Fame is and always will be a short flame. What makes Flack... seem sweetly nostalgic is the notion that anyone could ever control it.

Flack may not be for everyone, but there’s something captivating about its nihilism that may just capture new audiences.

Kind of what you would expect. Publicists doing questionable things to cover up the questionable behavior of their clients. Entertaining enough.

09/05/2021

Every "strong female character" cliche packed into one woman. Yet another show that makes me wonder why anybody trusts Rotten Tomatoes.

07/19/2021

This is a great look on how the world sees celebrities and who they actually are. This reminds me of the show Ray Donavan but with a bad ass female cast. Also shows how spoiled the rich and famous are. Need more shows like this. Great show.
