Declared by The Washington Post as “unforgiving and darkly hilarious,” and The New York Times as “brutally honest and outrageous,” Patricia Williams (aka Ms. Pat) is a comedian, author, podcaster, and actress who brings a raw, in your face, and hilarious perspective to her work. With a hit multi-cam series based on her life, her first Netflix hour special set to premiere, and sold-out standup shows nationwide, amongst other projects, Ms. Pat is headed for comedy superstardom. On August 12, 2021, Pat’s multi-cam sitcom The Ms. Pat Show premiered on BET+. The series was picked up for a second season within weeks, with Decider lauding “The Ms. Pat Show is bound to be one of the year’s notable new comedies” and Essence Magazine gushing “Ms. Pat is headed for the comedy stratosphere.” Hollywood legends Brian Grazer and Ron Howard’s Imagine Entertainment are producing the series along with powerhouse producer Lee Daniels. Based on her own life, the show tells the story of a former convicted felon turned suburban mom (Ms. Pat), whose hustle and resilient spirit was forged on the streets of Atlanta. To much reserve, she and her family now find themselves in conservative middle America. Iconic TV producer Norman Lear loved the pilot episode so much that he reached out to Pat personally to meet with her.
