Survival of the Thickest (Seasons 1–3)

Survival of the Thickest (2023) is a comedy-drama series you can watch online on iFILM. New York stylist Mavis Beaumont has a life she built block by block — until the man she planned a future with walks out. Based on Michelle Buteau's essay collection of the same name, the show stars Buteau herself as Mavis.

Starting over in your mid-thirties with a bruised ego and rent to pay is messy, and the series doesn't clean it up. Mavis leans on her chosen family — a tight circle of friends who keep her from falling apart. The comedy is sharp, the emotional beats land without preaching, and the show handles body image and identity with a candor that sets it apart from most feel-good dramedies.
