I would argue Fleabag. But it depends on what you mean with positive.
My argument for Fleabag is that she is a full human being with good sides and bad sides. It is a realistic portrayal. Same goes for the other women in the show (godmother, Claire, the lady winning the Women in Business award). They all have depth and character. I don’t want women to be portrayed as perfect, I want them to be portrayed as relatable. The whole show depicts people that you feel like “I know that girl”, “I know that guy”. And in the end:
godmother steps over her shadow and asks for help
Claire goes for what she really wants
Belinda (?) can’t be fucking arsed because she knows what she wants and what she is and what she is not
Fleabag experiences real human connection and feels ready to leave her audience behind

Fleabag I think is objectively a terrible rolemodel but also an amazing portrayal of a real human woman.
