Alright, 1000-lb Sisters fans, let’s talk about the big question: are Amy and Tammy Slaton coming back for Season 8? This TLC show has had us laughing, crying, and cheering since it kicked off in 2020, and with Season 7 wrapping up on June 10, 2025, we’re all dying to know what’s next. The Slaton sisters’ wild ride—full of weight-loss wins, family drama, and big life changes—has us hooked. So, is Season 8 on the way? Here’s everything we know so far.
Has TLC Greenlit Season 8?
As of July 2025, TLC’s keeping us in suspense—no official word on whether Season 8 is happening. They usually take their sweet time announcing renewals, often waiting a few months after a season ends. But let’s be honest, this show’s a fan favorite, and the Slatons’ lives are like a soap opera you can’t stop watching. Over on Reddit, fans are losing it, with folks like user @Frosty-Net-5451 begging TLC to keep the show going. Some even think the cameras might already be rolling on the down-low.
The show’s been pretty consistent with new seasons—Season 5 dropped in December 2023, Season 6 in October 2024, and Season 7 in April 2025. If that vibe continues, we could be looking at Season 8 popping up around late 2025 or early 2026. So, keep your eyes peeled!
What Could Season 8 Bring to the Table?
Season 7 left us with plenty of juicy moments, and there’s no shortage of stories to explore if the show returns. Here’s what we’re hoping to see:
Tammy’s Next Steps
Tammy Slaton’s transformation has been nothing short of jaw-dropping. She’s shed over 500 pounds and had skin removal surgery in Season 7, but her journey’s still going strong. Could we see her tackle more surgeries, maybe for her lower body? Or maybe she’ll switch things up with a fresh hairstyle or some dental work to boost her confidence. Plus, her relationship with Andrea is getting serious—she’s been spotted with what looks like an engagement ring! Season 8 might give us a front-row seat to wedding planning or even a big proposal moment.
More Family, More Fun
The Slaton clan isn’t just Amy and Tammy. Chris Combs, Amanda Halterman, Misty, and Brittany have become fan favorites, and they could steal the spotlight. Brittany’s been open about wanting to lose weight and start a family, so we might see her kick off her own bariatric surgery journey. Chris, meanwhile, could dive into his pecan pie business or maybe even launch a food truck. Some fans on Reddit have tossed around the idea of rebranding the show as 1000-lb Family to spotlight everyone’s stories—what a cool twist that would be!
Who’s Coming Back for Season 8?
If Season 8 happens, expect the usual crew to return:
-
Tammy Slaton: Sharing her health wins and love story.
-
Amy Slaton: Navigating her engagement and mom life.
-
Chris Combs: Being the supportive brother with his own side hustles.
-
Amanda Halterman and Misty Slaton: Bringing the family drama and love.
-
Brittany Combs: Possibly starting her weight-loss journey.
-
Brian Lovvorn and Andrea: As the sisters’ partners, they might pop up more.
We could also see some new faces, like extended family or friends, depending on where TLC takes the story.
