Michelle Buteau’s Survival of the Thickest has been a favorite of ours and its third and final season will arrive on Netflix July 2.
Yesterday, Wednesday, May 6 at Michelle Buteau’s Netflix is a Joke Show, Wanda Sykes made a surprise appearance, and Netflix debuted the teaser for the third and final season of Survival of the Thickest.
And it is a good one.
Survival of the Thickest centers on Mavis Beaumont (Michelle Buteau). Black, plus-size, and falling in love while loving herself, Mavis works hard to grow her brand as a stylist and designer. 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. The scripted comedy is inspired by Buteau’s acclaimed book of essays.
Survival of the Thickest stars Michelle Buteau, Tone Bell, and Marouane Zotti. Guest stars include Peppermint, Liza Treyger, Garcelle Beauvais, Wanda Sykes, D.L. Hughley, Ashley Graham, Ronny Chieng, Ice-T, Wyatt Cenac, Jenna Lyons, LaQuan Smith, Charles Harbison, Ashley Romans, Anthony Michael Lopez, Alecsys Proctor-Turner, Jonathan Higginbotham, Dan Amboyer, and RonReaco Lee.
We’re counting down until July. Are you excited for the new season?
