FX continues to build their roster of original scripted programming. The cable channel cancels low-rated shows but has stuck with others. Will Better Things survive to see a second season or, will it be cancelled instead? Stay tuned.

Better Things revolves around Sam Fox (co-creator Pamela Adlon), a working actor in Los Angeles. A divorced woman without a filter, she’s trying to raise her three daughters – teenager Max (Mikey Madison), eccentric Frankie (Hannah Alligood) and spicey Duke (Olivia Edward). Sam also watches out for her mom (Celia Imrie). All at once, she is mom, dad, referee, and the cops.

In the changing world of television, TV execs look at many factors when deciding to renew or cancel a show. However, the ratings are still very important. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.
