1 ‘Survival of the Thickest’ (2023–2026)

Rotten Tomatoes: 93% | IMDb: 7.5/10

In a weekend likely to be dominated by the arrival of Millie Bobby Brown‘s Enola Holmes 3, there’s another returning female star for a third installment that you shouldn’t miss. Survival of the Thickest, the Michelle Buteau-led series that debuted in 2023, follows the newly single Mavis as she tries to reinvent her life alongside her chosen family, including her besties Khalil (Tone Bell) and Marley (Tasha Smith).

Created by Buteau and Danielle Sanchez Witzel, and an adaptation of the former’s collection of essays of the same name, Survival of the Thickest is one of the most underrated shows on Netflix, intelligently moving between over-the-top comedy and heartwarming laughs. Buteau is excellent throughout, supported by I May Destroy You alum Marouane Zotti as Luca, Tone Bell as Khalil, and many others.
