About Ms. Pat

Declared by The Huffington Post as "the real hero of sitcom TV," Patricia Williams-Lee (aka Ms. Pat) is a comedian, author, radio host, podcaster, and actress. Her critically acclaimed BET+ sitcom The Ms. Pat Show, produced by Lee Daniels and Brian Grazer, earned BET its first ever Emmy recognition with three nominations. The series has shattered viewership records on the streamer with dedicated fans crashing the app multiple times as they clamor to watch. Based on Pat's real-life story of an inner-city drug dealer turned suburban mom, the show has also been a critical darling with The Hollywood Reporter raving "Think Roseanne of the 1980s and 1990s, but even rawer" and Essence Magazine gushing "Ms. Pat is headed for the comedy stratosphere." Pat also hosts the popular weekly court show Ms. Pat Settles It where she takes hold of the gavel to settle people's everyday disputes using her signature raw, unfiltered, hilarious sensibility. The series debuted on BET in 2023 and instantly became another hit for the rapidly emerging entertainment mogul. Her hour standup special Y'All Wanna Hear Something Crazy?, directed by comedy legend Robert Townsend, is also currently streaming on Netflix. The New York Times described the hour as "superb material" while Indiewire offered "There are a lot of comedy specials on Netflix these days, but Ms. Pat breaks through the noise." She hosts her own top-rated comedy podcast The Patdown and her own cooking show Whiskin' It All with Ms. Pat.
