Better Things

Funny, real and inspiring. I have loved Pam since Californication. The story is original. I love that men are not saving these women. They are facing the world on their own not waiting for a man to help them. They deal with real world problems in a non forgiving world of social media, changing family structure and the role of women in society is changing. Cannot wait to see where life takes these women.

Strangely, I like this show but I can't stand the daughters.

Pamela Adlon offers much richer characterizations for her trio of young co-stars this year, and it's hard to think of another tv series since Malcolm in the Middle that has had such an ingenious representation of the youngest-middle-oldest sibling dynamic. The writing is indelibly sharp too, as just like Louie the show is as precious as it is hilarious, and it's captured in a way that's simply beautiful on every level. In a year with no new seasons for Atlanta or Louie, FX subscribers that appreciate more subversive comedies with a knack for subtlety will find all they desire here, in Better Things.

I've just recently started to watch and am on season 2. I like the show especially Pamela A. Her bratty kids, however, are too broadly drawn and cliched. I would like to punch them. Is that what the writers were going for?

I was looking forward for seeing this show for a long time and it didn't disappoint me. Again im looking at the score on the site and cant understand how this show couldn't get a higher one. Ofcoure a lot of people don't trust the score and watch whatever they want before making any mind about it but still it can be a little confusing when it comes to the score on site. This one is a good show put together by brilliant comedians to tell a story about a family from a funny point of view and it works perfectly fine if you ask me , yes there still a little drama here and there but if you look at the big picture , this show lacks the mistakes that are done by so many comedy shows out there , no clichés , no stupid jokes , just life from a funny perspective.
