Long days, late nights, endless to-do lists — do these things sound familiar? Do certain situations make you feel like screaming into your pillow? Do Better Things call you?
Better Things – Laugh, Don’t Pull Your Hair Out!
A mom you can relate to on the FX Network
If you are a mom, you bet they do! Stumbling through days with little-to-no sleep, but still managing to drive carpool, go to work, give homework help, take care of household chores, nurse your little sickies, and get dinner on the table doesn’t leave you much “me” time. As a mom, you are always sacrificing for your children, and you wouldn’t have it any other way, but you are still, YOU. So, let your style and personality shine, and get ready for Better Things.
Being exhausted at the end of the day, and knowing you have that last load of laundry you have to finish (because your daughter swears she’ll die if she doesn’t have that outfit to wear to school the next day), can make you want to pull your hair out. Well, stop pulling and start laughing!
Better Things, a NEW comedy series created by Louis C.K. and Pamela Adlon for FX Network airs Thursdays at 10PM. Every mom will relate to Adlon’s character, Sam, a single mother raising three daughters. Like any mom, Sam wears many hats — mom, dad, referee, and the cops.
Watch pieces of your life unfold on screen as Sam navigates motherhood, a job, and a wannabe social life with little-to-no filter. Rory and I found ourselves smirking and laughing at some of the scenes that could have come straight from our lives. I guarantee you will have your own life moments flooding back to memory. Feel the validation! Roll your eyes with frustration. Love the heartwarming moments. Snicker at the hilarity. Enjoy the triumphs. And realize you are not alone. Get together with your girlfriends and watch Better Things.

I haven’t watched this show yet, but just watched a bit on the computer. The main character seems to be someone I could easily relate to. I will have to set my DVR for this show. I always like a good laugh.

I love to laugh and I’ve been waiting for a funny show to watch and this one looks like the one. I like all of the clips, but the smoke detector is my favorite.
I like the Pillow clip
I think Better Things looks like a really funny show. I love the Bed Eye clip because I love my sleep.
I like your recipes! That’s my favorite. As far as the clips go, I like the one called Smoke Detector!
I’m enjoying this show when I can catch it. And I love the pillow clip best. Thanks for the chance to win.
I cant imagine raising 3 girls alone. I relate to her being a single mom. I watched the First Look clip and enjoyed getting the main character’s perspective on it.
I like that it’s “real” situations and she knows she isn’t perfect. I really like the smoke detector clip.
I love that it highlights things that we go threw as mom’s and women in a comedic way! My favorite clip is the smoke detector lol. My daughter is the one with her legs wrapped around me!
i guess the pillow clip is my fav 🙂 looks great and i’m always keep’n an eye out for a great something to watch
I like the Pillow clip
For sure the Pillow scene. I have a 12 year old daughter. I so get it.
I love the hair dryer clip- it’s just so true! Happens ALL.THE.TIME.
I like that this show is so relatable. I like the pillow scene the best.
This show looks hilarious and the pillow clip is my favorite.
Loved the pillow clip, the show looks great!
This looks like a great show – I can’t wait to see it! We all need to take life for the better things! 🙂 #HomeMattersParty

I seriously think this is going to be a show that I can relate to. The smoke detector scene was hilarious and so my family. I am looking forward to watching this.
The clips are funny.Have to check this show.
I have got to watch this show. It sounds funny and my type of show. #HomeMattersParty
Lorelai, I am so glad you shared this! I started watching it & was immediately hooked! I love how honest Sam is & her Mom is a hoot! #HomeMattersParty
Loving the show so far! It’s hilarious! My favorite clip is the Shame clip!
it looks really funny. the smoke detector clip is my life, lol
I love this show! My favorite is the gynecologist scene when Sam says “Please tell me I’m close to being a man. No more periods”. I wish for that very same thing every month. Gah!
This show looks like something I could really relate to, as a mom with three kids of my own!
I love that this show is so authentic and I hope it continues to be so. I think it strikes a cord with almost all the women I know. My favorite is ‘Bed Eye’. My kids never let me rest and this clip really captures the fear and frustration of needing sleep.
I love the smoke detector scene, this happens to us all the time.
