TV show description:
This single-camera comedy 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). All at once, she is mom, dad, referee, and the cops.
Sam also watches out for her mother, Phil (Celia Imrie), an English expatriate, who lives across the street. Sam’s just trying to earn a living, navigate her daughters’ lives, have fun with a friend or two and also — just maybe — squeeze in some private time once in a while.

Please renew this show it is smart and witty and a way for us boomers to wrap our heads around millenials
“Better Things” is the most thoughtful & multilayered TV series about a Mom and her very individual relationships with each of her 3 daughters and Mother, it is hysterical as well as moving, Pamela Adlon along with her stellar ensemble are genuine without being sentimental, harsh without being cruel…so truthful, love!
I love it. I am looking forward, to another season.
I love this show! It’s real! Please don’t cancel it!
I love this show. Please keep it on. Its hilarious and real.
Love it!! Real people and hilarious (when it’s not you) Love mum- Sam and her relationships with all….
I think Better Things isn’t as well known as other shows due to lack of advertising it. I love the show!! It is funny and serious at the same time. They touch on subjects that a person can relate to. Love all the actors!! Thanks for a great show. Advertise it more PLEASE.
Absolutely love it. One of the best sit-coms i’ve seen in a while.
Love it.
Was really liking it until the 4th episode where they were laughing about their abortions (weren’t even any funny lines) and dissing Mother Teresa!!! Give me a break. really?! Sounds like a Hollywood agenda rearing it’s ugly head again….. Will watch a few more to see if this is going to be the trend or was just a misfire.
Love it. Want to see more.
Excellent show. Intelligent portrayal of a hardworking single mom, trying to navigate motherhood and life. Also enjoy the grandma and her interaction with her daughter.
I’m liking it. Something I’d expect from HBO but not. Storyline different. Appreciate Pam Adlon. First I’ve seen of her and she makes me laugh. Kudos
