Survival of the Thickest star Michelle Buteau is gearing up for an exciting second season as filming kicks off. The scripted comedy, based on Buteau's book of the same name, is set to deliver a 'bigger and blacker and better' season two. Co-created by Danielle Sanchez-Witzel, the show debuted last year and is now back in production with a mix of emotions following a glitch that prevented its Emmy nominations for season one.
The series, produced by A24, features a diverse cast and crew, with a focus on showcasing authentic voices and talent. Buteau, who serves as co-creator and co-executive producer, is thrilled to be working on a show that celebrates Black and queer representation, with an all-female slate of directors at the helm.
