More about Survival of the Thickest

Co-created by Danielle and Michelle Buteau, Survival of the Thickest is a comedy-drama that is based on the memoir by the same name, written by Buteau. Besides being the executive producer and co-creator of the show, Buteau also stars as the protagonist, Mavis.

While talking about her character and how her show has been compared to having Emily in Paris moments, Buteau told TUDUM,

“When we were creating Season 1, we had so many moments that made us think of Sex and the City, Emily in Paris, or any female-led show. And it’s like, “Holy shit, I get to have a chance to do that.” Honestly, it’s a dream come true.”

She further added,

“It’s also really fun to poke fun at these shows, because everybody knows Emily’s going to go to Paris and do what she’s gonna do. But Mavis in Rome?! I think that’s why people relate to the show, because they see themselves in me. Because I do feel like a win for me is a win for all of us. Because if I look like you or your mama or your cousins, we can all get on. And that’s why diversity is so important.”

Survival of the Thickest Season 2 brings back series regulars Tasha Smith as Marley and Tone Bell as Khalil. This season will also feature recurring guest stars and characters, including Peppermint, Anthony Michael Lopez, Liza Treyger, Jerrie Johnson, Alecsys Proctor-Turner, Dan Amboyer, Allan K. Washington, Anderson .Paak, Sandra Bernhard, Tika Sumpter, and Jonathan Chad Higginbotham, to name a few.

Survival of the Thickest seasons 1 and 2 can be streamed on Netflix.
