Mama June: Family Crisis
Chaos runs in the family
On WE tv
A long-running reality series following a public figure's weight-loss journey and family dynamics, balancing personal transformation with tabloid-adjacent spectacle.
June Shannon ('Mama June') gained fame as the mother of young beauty-pageant contestant 'Honey Boo Boo' (Alana Thompson) on various reality shows. With that notoriety came jokes from comedians and people on social media about her weight. Ending her marriage to Sugar Bear and facing health issues, Mama June wants to slim down so she can start a new life with a new body and, she hopes, a new love.
