Laverne Cox<\/strong><\/a> is leading her new TV show, Clean Slate<\/em>, and the eight-episode first season has already premiered for viewers! The breakout star from the hit drama-comedy prison series Orange Is the New Black<\/em><\/a> leads Clean Slate<\/em> alongside a talented cast. In fact, Laverne<\/a> achieved way more than just a role; she also created the show with her co-star, George Wallace<\/strong>, and served as an executive producer. \u00a0So, where can fans watch the new series?<\/p>\n

Hollywood Life<\/strong> has compiled all the details you need to know about Laverne\u2019s Clean Slate<\/em> here.<\/p>\n

What Is Laverne Cox\u2019s New Show About?<\/h2>\n

Per the show\u2019s IMDb<\/a> page, the synopsis introduces Harry Slate, \u201can Alabama car wash owner is surprised when his estranged child returns home after 17 years, now a determined, proud trans woman named Desiree.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ahead of Clean Slate<\/em>\u2018s premiere, George spoke with The Hollywood Reporter<\/em> <\/a>about how he and Laverne pitched the idea for the series. For starters, he wanted a re-imagination of Sanford and Son<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo I said, \u2018Let me go to Norman Lear<\/strong>,’\u201d George recalled, before pointing out, \u201cI had known him for 30 years and I said, \u2018I want to reboot Sanford and Son<\/em>.\u2019 He says, \u2018Are you kidding? You can\u2019t do that show. Get a twist and come back.\u2019 \u2026\u00a0At that time, Orange is the New Black<\/em> was very popular. I never watched the show, but I kept hearing about this Laverne Cox. Who the hell is Laverne Cox? But thinking about her show, I wondered, what if I had a son that left home and came back and it was 23 years later and my child says, \u2018Dad, I\u2019m coming home tomorrow.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Laverne then interjected during the interview to say, \u201cAnd that child says, \u2018I was never your son, I was always your daughter.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are so many Black Christian women just like her all over the South,\u201d Laverne, an Alabama native like her character, acknowledged. \u201cThere\u2019s actually an organization of Christian mothers who have LGBTQ kids, and they got started just to give hugs to LGBTQ+ people. This is the thing, there\u2019s so many people who are Christians who are loving. I grew up reading the Bible, summarizing the Sunday school lesson every Sunday, and there\u2019s a lot going on in the Bible, but in the New Testament, God is love, Jesus is love, he forgives, he died for our sins. It is God\u2019s job to judge, and it\u2019s our job to love.\u201d<\/p>\n

Where to Watch Clean Slate<\/em><\/h2>\n

Fans can stream all eight episodes of season 1 of Clean Slate<\/em> on Prime Video. The show dropped on the streaming giant on February 6, 2025.<\/p>\n

Who Else Is in the Clean Slate<\/em> Cast?<\/h2>\n

Apart from Laverne, the rest of the Clean Slate<\/em> features George\u00a0as Desiree\u2019s father, Harry, Jay Wilkison<\/strong> as Mack, Norah Murphy<\/strong> as Opal, D.K. Uzoukwu<\/strong> as Louis, Telma Hopkins<\/strong> as Ella and Phillip Garcia<\/strong> as Miguel.<\/p>\n
