Definitely geeking out right now…Pamela Adlon MAY be a bit of a goddess. Just unmatched TALENT!!

[@randomsisters06]

I love how better things is a show about real life feelings and situations. It’s rare for a show to stay on those intense scenes without cutting away. Such a Great show. More should look to it for reaching greatness for your show

[@BendHealthGuide]

I don't want Better Things to end, it's the only show us 50 y.o Mothers like me can relate to!!! My fave show, thank you Pamela!

[@dongshengdi773]

i love you , Pamela Anderson .

[@jrojas2520]

I love the show as well even as a single man. The characters and their family dynamic is so refreshing and unlike any other show. It blends comedy and drama very well.

[@erikserum9519]

Replace with the trevor noah show now .keep watching him on the daily show lol 😆 😂 🤣 four nights every weeknights.

[@MrMonikerjay]

And 50 y.o. Fathers too. I get so many great ideas from Sam that I try and incorporate into being a father to a teenage boy.

[@maryjane2965]

Trevor is my absolute favorite interviewer.He always does such proper research and seems genuinely interested. You can tell his guests always feel so appreciated and seen. My second favorite is Stephen Colbert.

[@femksenkoro3739]

You nailed it, Mary Jane.

[@lorichaudhry7290]

Cool Lady. Thank you, Trevor for celebrating the important artists of our time. 🙏

[@7thChakraNena]

I absolutely adore Better Things! I am truly gonna miss this show!💜💜💯

[@LJ93728]

Missing (mourning) it already.. going to rewatch from the beginning (for the third time).. LOVE YOU PAMMY SAMMY

[@Qallash]

I didn't know about "Better Things" and now it's on my list to watch. Thx Trevor 👏🌹🙏

[@srivi2009]

The last season was soooooo beautiful… every episode bringing tears in a way that it fills the heart. Every simple moment so beautifully captured. It is undoubtedly one of the best shows ever made. It sure has been instrumental in bringing in wisdom for this stage of life. This is going to be a go-to show for all mothers struggling to raise kids. Thank you!

[@steffnic13]

Have loved her since Californication. So cute and sassy. Her own personality comes through in her characters.

[@tomharvey5466]

I only knew her from louie..if she's really like this as a human being I'm her biggest fan..speaking of better things....hooked on the show and want her in my life!!

[@Juke-Fox]

Shoutout to Pamela Adlon for vertically integrating a _show._

[@mlggamer5296]

Makes me wonder if I should show this show to my mom because she's a 50 odd-year-old single mom as well

[@ladiepink]

Yes she may enjoy it.

[@jscript22]

Better things is really a great show.

[@juanita5344]

My favorite show. The best. She is amazing.

Pamela Adlon is the QUEEN.

[@jeanninelewis4741]

LOVE her

[@richardwillhide1157]

He is the best interviewer

[@barbelo4876]

I've been a fan of her since she was a child actor.

[@heydeanie]

the facts of life!!

[@mlggamer5296]

You know the show being named better things also is like a symbolism as well because now she's been in Californication for a while and now she's moved on to better things. It's one of the most simple symbolisms but it's a symbolism

[@lisahutchinson5881]

I absolutely love her hair

[@lisahutchinson5881]

@♜ Pìnned by The Daily Show With Trevor Noah what are you saying

[@heydeanie]

[@williamsmoore991]

Cool lady ,with a awesome talent and great personality ,a better things is a lovely show .

[@motulifelikefigures1987]

I think the success of the show is because of the sam character. Shes the cool mum we all wanted to have. The best buddy type of mum. A big sis and mum all together.

[@rightweaponry908]

She's soo right about people not even knowing about all the cool jobs in the film industry

[@d.a2026]

What a hero

[@sports2.082]

Interesting and inspiring.

[@conspirancytheories]

BETTER THINGS is a worth show

[@jillweber7467]

Better Things is the best show on tv. There are a lot of great shows these days, so that’s saying a lot

[@natashavilakazi8806]

HUGE FAN.

[@surprisemakhubele]

Beautiful 🇿🇦

[@shakalaka7335]

I sure wish my daughter could connect with this woman because she is so interested in film she is the Roger Ebert of tv and movies. When she was a baby she used to read the credits 😂she is an extraordinary child and I am not very educated so this is a possibility to me hopefully this message will get in the right hands🙏🏿

[@shakalaka7335]

@♜ Pìnned by Clear Value Tax I don’t know what you mean but I’m not sure of how the market really works

[@erichaines1333]

More Bobby Hill please.

[@crystalharris7394]

💗💗💗

[@mlggamer5296]

I like that take about the word antihero. It should just be they're a human. Yeah that actually makes sense I can work with that

[@richardramos1492]

That's hilarious I have five children and I can relate or I should say my wife could relate I'm a construction electrician raising kids on her own

[@katepriest4242]

Pamela is genius, will watch anything she's in or writes! but am I crazy or is she wearing a sweater with holes in the right sleeve?? maybe she just doesn't care or she needs a stylist... whatever. LOVE her and her extraordinary talents.

[@syarifusman737]

Hi Trevor, I'm waiting for your roasting on Kamala. Your jokes on Trump were hilarious.

[@derekwang7330]

Please cover the lockdowns in China

[@uffstahpgoogle6851]

[@PM2024-]

Does she need money to buy a sweater that doesn’t have holes in its right arm? 👕 😉

[@Shamuto7]

As someone who doesn't watch the show, she looks like mid or late 40s.

[@shivagiri7406]

Louis ck is the greatest comedian of all time. Hate him but he is.

[@Johngomezzzz]

EVEN THEY HAVE "THE WHITE HOUSE" SHOULD BE CHANGE TO "THE PEOPLE'S HOUSE" LAND OF FREE REALLLLLY ?

[@KingMinosxxvi]

Oh really .....I thought Louis CK created her opportunities.

[@NellieKAdaba]

🤷‍♀️

[@dataroman8111]

Hey, Noah another friend Rocky from your community is aressted. Start defending him like you doing usually.

[@magaffi]

I wish you'd get credit to Louise CK her long time partner and really close friend but....... you know It's only brave when you shun someone Not stand by your close personal friends... Really great show though big fan
