Fisk is another cringe comedy, the struggle between authenticity and assimilating. Kitty Flanagan is the star of the show as Helen Tudor-Fisk, a recently divorced woman who's also been fired, and switches to probate law in Australia. There are many odd scenarios, clients who want to use the execution of a will to extort weird things, like getting your brother to have a vasectomy, and penis paintings. Or clients who steal things constantly. She gets banned from the downstairs coffee shops, and kicked out of an Airbnb. Her father is a famous judge, and he recently left his wife for a man. Everyone is oddly controlling and works to manipulate their agendas with extreme vigor.
It starts out with a skit about her trying to get work, and someone doesn't notice she's there because she's in a brown suit.
One phrases I like is, "and all my friends beyond the binary" said after ladies and gentlemen. I hadn't heard that one. The webmaster is "pansexual".
Netflix in America only has first season. Hopefully the numbers are good and they buy the second season because I really enjoy the show.
