Better Things season 6: Why isn’t it happening at FX? Why is it ending?
We know that it’s hard to lose any show that you love, and that’s especially true for one like this. It’s a poignant but still funny show with a tour-de-force performance from Pamela Adlon at the center of everything.
If there’s one thing that we are grateful for, it’s that the show does get a chance to end largely on its own terms. Speaking (per Deadline) in a statement about the end of the show, here is what Adlon had to say:
“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 gonna be a wrap on Sam Fox (for now). See you at the after party.”
The thing that we know about Adlon as a performer and producer is that whether it is this show or something else, there’s always going to be more. She’s shown that she can do a wide array of things both in front of and behind the camera, and we trust her vision to create something more. We also hope that she continues a relationship with FX moving forward, since they’ve done a good job over the years allowing their creators to create. (We know that she does have an overall deal with FX Productions, and that could give her a head start on something more in the future.)
