Survivor's Remorse

Survivor's Remorse is an American comedy-drama television series created by Mike O'Malley that aired on Starz.

[4] The Village Voice listed Survivor's Remorse as one of the best shows of 2015, saying "If it were on HBO or FX, this glossy but ambitious comedy about an African-American family that moves from Boston's down-and-out Dorchester neighborhood into the Atlanta sports elite would be the only thing anybody would ever talk about.

Instead, Mike O'Malley's saga of a family whose dynamics get compellingly distorted when one of their own makes it big in the NBA — and the show's sharp and raunchy discussions of race, class, and sexuality — remains, in its second year, an unfairly buried gem.

"[42] By the conclusion of its final season, Survivor's Remorse averaged an 82 on Metacritic, indicating "universal acclaim".

"[45] Writing about the show for Paste, in response to its "Photoshoot" episode focusing on colorism, Shannon M. Houston referred to the show as a "powerful beam, highlighting all that TV has yet to touch on, even during this Golden Age of peak TV.
