Survival of the Thickest

I've been having a lot of fun so far. I'll give an updated review later on but so far laughing my ass off! L O L! I love Michelle she is a delight. It is so fun keep it coming!!!!! She is such a silly mess!!! I love it!!!!! I love her personality. It's so relatable but at the same time edgy and Fun, it's very refreshing. I love Michelle! This show is great! Also, I love that even when she thought of giving up she kept going thank you it's motivating it's inspiring but it's fun it's not preachy as she said it's the "mo-ment!" I just finished the first episode and loved everything about it down to the music!!!

I love love lighthearted female lead shows. This show was outstanding and eight episodes wasn't enough.

I don't think I've ever seen Michelle Buteau in anything but now I love her. She plays this role well. I'm like is this how she is in real life because she nailed it.

The writing is so well done! I love that it's not a lot of heavy drama and plenty of funny moments.

I love that her best-friend was a straight gentle, loving and supportive black guy because we don't see that kind friendship enough on tv.

I liked how towards the end we got to see her interacting with her roommate more because I thought it was weird how she moved in and had her friends over often but we rarely saw the roomate.

By next week I'll probably be watching it again because I miss it already!

This show is sweet, funny, inclusive, romantic. Why am I so jaded that I thought things will go off the rails, waiting for a betrayal (I mean besides the obvious one in the first episode). These characters are supportive, committed to growth, and growing. They say the right things during tense moments and mostly make the right decisions. I admit it made me even cry sometimes. It does walk a very very fine line of sappy and sometimes even preachy. I'd have rated it a bit higher if I didn't have a slight fear it can tilt into that territory. Still! I binged all 8 episodes and can't wait for second season. Also, watch Michelle's stand ups!

I'm so on the fence, I enjoyed the show which is really all you can ask for from a Netflix show these days but this one was just so over the top trying to include every thing and everyone. At one point it just felt forced. The cast overall was great even though none of them were actually good actors, least of all the main actress (which I think is one of the prettiest women ever and look wise as amazing for the part) but I mean... Sometimes I actually didn't know she was being ironic or sincere because her acting was so bad. Her energy made up for it though. Story wise it was good, the humor and the jokes often good but too flat at times.

If you not of a certain population or display hatred towards certain populations, you will not be desiring to watch this wonderful creation by Michelle Buteau. It definitely appeals to those who are real and have real lives. This show is a masterpiece of realness. Keep it up. Everyone will not like it but there is no need to bashed it. Just move on. I love it. The show features people who make of real life and surround the world daily. If you want to open your mind watch the show to experience difference that exist in the world through this show. I am so glad there is a show which really appeals to the world.
