It’s the end of Better Things.
FX has cancelled the comedy-drama, Cancelled Soon TV has learned.
The previously-announced fifth season of Better Things, which didn’t come with a ‘final season’ announcement at the time of renewal, will now be the show’s last.
Series co-creator Pamela Adlon said of the Better Things cancellation:
“I will forever be grateful to FX for allowing me to tell stories the way I see the world and want the world to be seen. Making this show has been film school for me. I bow down to my crew and my cast. And I can’t wait for people to discover and re-discover Better Things. This is, for the time-being, gonna be a wrap on Sam Fox. See you at the after party.”

About Better Things TV Show
Co-created by Pamela Adlon and Louis C.K. and starring Adlon, Better Things centers on Sam Fox (Adlon), a single, working actor with no filter raising her three daughters, Max (Mikey Madison), Frankie (Hannah Alligood) and Duke (Olivia Edward) in Los Angeles. She's 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 is flawed and fierce with her love for her daughters, and her own mother, as well. Sometimes, heaping the love on when she feels guilty. 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.
