Village Voice listed Survivor's Remorse as one of the best shows of 2015, saying "If it were on HBO or FX, this glossy but ambitious comedy about an African-American family that moves from Boston’s down-and-out Dorchester neighborhood into the Atlanta sports elite would be the only thing anybody would ever talk about. Instead, Mike O’Malley’s saga of a family whose dynamics get compellingly distorted when one of their own makes it big in the NBA — and the show’s sharp and raunchy discussions of race, class, and sexuality — remains, in its second year, an unfairly buried gem." By the conclusion of its final season, Survivor's Remorse averaged an 82 on Metacritic, indicating "universal acclaim." Daniel Fienberg of The Hollywood Reporter called it “one of TV’s sharpest and most provocative comedies," while Alan Sepinwall praised it as “intensely satisfying and like nothing else on TV.” Writing about the show for Paste, in response to its "Photoshoot" episode focusing on colorism, Shannon M. Houston referred to the show as a "powerful beam, highlighting all that TV has yet to touch on, even during this Golden Age of peak TV." Survivor's Remorse was a GLAAD nominee for Outstanding Comedy Series in 2017 and 2018. The series and its cast were also nominated for and won several NAACP Image Awards: Tichina Arnold for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series in 2016, 2017, and 2018 ; Mike Epps for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series in 2016, RonReaco Lee for Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series in 2016 and 2018, Erica Ash for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series in 2017, and the series itself nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series 2016–2018.
