The acclaimed and award-winning FX comedy series Better Things returns for its third season, with new episodes streaming every week in March
Directed by, produced and starring Pamela Adlon and featuring new cast members Sharon Stone and Matthew Broderick, Better Things is the story of Sam Fox (Adlon), a single mother and working actor with no filter, raising her three daughters, Max (Mikey Madison), Frankie (Hannah Alligood) and Duke (Olivia Edward) in Los Angeles.
Sam also looks after her mother, Phil (Celia Imrie), an English expat with questionable faculties who lives across the street. Whether she’s struggling to keep her daughters close or trying to push one of them out of the nest, Sam approaches every challenge with fierce love, raw honesty and humour. At the end of the day, Sam’s just trying to earn a living, navigate her daughters’ changing lives, survive her family, have fun with a friend or two and also – just maybe – squeeze in some private time.
The new season will welcome several new faces alongside Stone and Broderick including Doug Jones, Glynn Turman, Judy Reyes, Cree Summer, Charlie Robinson, Janina Gavankar and Marsha Thomason. Additionally, recurring players Diedrich Bader, Greg Cromer, Rebecca Metz, Kevin Pollak and Alysia Reiner will return this season, inhabiting their familiar roles.
In its first season, Better Things was honoured with a Peabody Award. Additionally, in the first and second seasons, Pamela Adlon was nominated for an Emmy® Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series and nominated for a Golden Globe® Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series – Musical or Comedy in season two. Better Things is produced by FX Productions.
Better Things returns for its third season, with new episodes streaming every week from Tuesday, March 19 and available to watch on FOX SHOWCASE on Tuesdays at 8.30pm.
For viewers wanting to catch up on the first two seasons of Better Things, every episode is currently available to stream through Foxtel On Demand on internet-connected iQ set-top-boxes and on streaming service Foxtel Now.
