10 Shows That Feature Female Antagonists We Cheer For (4 of 6)

Fleabag

There isn’t anything necessarily bad about Fleabag (Phoebe Waller-Bridge); she’s portrayed as a regular woman who is just trying to be her best self while she gets past the tragedy of losing a friend to suicide. However, she does make some pretty poor decisions, and as a result, could be described as her own worst enemy. This is perhaps why the audience finds her so relatable; we are often our own obstacles as we go through life.

Euphoria

Described as “Kids meets Trainspotting” (two controversial 1990s movies), this high school drama has received nearly critical praise from critics due to its intriguing plots and the way in which it deals with sensitive, mature issues. Recently renewed for a third season, Euphoria features not one but six female antagonists. These young ladies are all trying to find themselves and are prone to make bad choices along the way, but nonetheless, come out stronger as a result.
