Survival Of The Thickest | Preview (Netflix)

The scripted comedy is inspired by Michelle Buteau’s acclaimed book of essays.

Survival of the Thickest centers on Mavis Beaumont (Michelle Buteau). Black, plus-size and newly single (not by her choice!), Mavis unexpectedly finds herself having to rebuild her life as a struggling stylist.

She’s determined to not only survive but thrive with the support of her chosen family, a body positive attitude, and a cute v-neck with some lip gloss. All eight episodes of the comedy will be available on Thursday 13th July - only on Netflix.
