Combining humor and pathos with the seamlessness of a black and white cookie, FAT ACTRESS explores the challenges and triumphs of overcoming whatever makes someone uncomfortable about themselves.
Two-time Emmy® Award-winning actress Kirstie Alley stars in Showtime’s new comedy series that follows the daily struggles of an actress to find love and work in an unforgiving Hollywood. Alley and Brenda Hampton (7th Heaven," "Mad About You") are the creators and executive producers of this unscripted comedy.
The actress describes the show as "essentially a story about women’s introversions: how women torture themselves, what they fret about, what they long for, their hopes, their dreams, their downfalls and their losses--all viewed through the prism of exaggeration, farce and fancy, sarcasm and irony while going for biting humor and belly laughs."
