Better Things
The second series of this comedy-drama – now without Louis CK behind the scenes, for obvious reasons – has just landed on iPlayer.
It stars Pamela Adlon as a divorced actress who raises her three daughters on her own.
She's received two Emmy nominations for her lead role and the show also received a Peabody Award in 2017, with judges stating: 'This searingly funny and beautiful show is an at-times raw examination of the vicissitudes of working motherhood, crackling with feminist verve and energy, that consistently cuts new ground.'
