1000-Lb Sisters: Why Fans Want Chris Combs To Be The Star Of Season 4

Amy and Tammy Slaton have been the focus of 1000-lb Sisters seasons 1, 2, and 3, but in light of the siblings’ turbulent lives, fans think Chris Combs should replace his sisters as the focus of season 4. Although the future of the 1000-lb Sisters franchise is unknown as TLC has been reluctant to renew it for season 4, some viewers already don’t think Amy and Tammy should return as the subject of the Slaton family’s next chapter. From Amy and Tammy’s full schedules to Chris’ popularity, here’s why 1000-lb Sisters fans want Chris Combs to be the star of season 4.

Even though 1000-lb Sisters season 1 was centered around the beginning of Amy and Tammy’s weight loss journeys, viewers agree that the series would benefit from a change in format after season 3’s dramatic ending. Fans believe that 1000-lb Sisters season 4 hasn’t been confirmed yet because Tammy’s currently recovering in a rehabilitation center after almost passing away following the events of the season 3 finale. While some think 1000-lb Sisters relies on the conflict Tammy brings to the show, other viewers don’t think TLC should wait for Tammy to get her act together to greenlight season 4. Although he might not be a sister, fans want Chris Combs to be the star of 1000-lb Sisters season 4.

Unfortunately for Amy and Tammy, 1000-lb Sisters fans are expecting season 4 to shake up the franchise’s traditional formula. After season 3, it became apparent that Amy and Tammy Slaton are following diverging paths and might not be able to commit to another season in the spotlight. After failing to adhere to her weight loss goals throughout her run in 1000-lb Sisters, viewers think Tammy needs to stay off-camera and in rehab to salvage her health before it’s too late. As for Amy, the youngest Slaton sibling currently has her hands full raising her baby boy, Gage, and preparing for the birth of her second child. Although Amy and Tammy might not be able to return for 1000-lb Sisters season 4, fans think Chris is the perfect candidate to fill their shoes. A Reddit user admitted, “I’d entirely just watch a show of Chris going about his daily life.”

Although some fans argue that 1000-lb Sisters needs Amy and Tammy for conflict, others would prefer Chris Combs lead the show because they are exhausted of the repetitive drama between the sisters. Fans think if Amy and Tammy return for 1000-lb Sisters season 4, the pair would continue to fight and fall further from their weight loss goals as they have in the past three seasons. While he wouldn’t bring the same amount of chaos as Tammy, viewers think Chris would be a welcome break from the frustrations that come with Tammy as 1000-lb Sisters‘ star. One fan shared that they would be content simply observing Chris’ day-to-day activities, writing, “Chris watching a football game alone saying nothing while eating pizza. I’m in.” Additionally, fans want to keep watching Chris’ weight loss journey, as another commenter noted, “I wouldn’t mind seeing how Chris does [post-surgery].”

Ever since he joined Amy and Tammy in 1000-lb Sisters season 2, Chris Combs established himself as the fan-favorite Slaton family member. Although some viewers are concerned about Amy and Tammy not appearing in the next 1000-lb Sisters season, other fans welcome a change of pace and want Chris Combs to be the star of season 4. After years of supporting his sisters, Chris’ followers think it’s finally time for him to take center stage in 1000-lb Sisters season 4.
