17 Underrated TV Shows We Begged Our Friends to Start Watching This Year

"Actress Pamela Adlon racked up fans on Louis CK's comedy-drama Louie, and her latest TV show, Better Things, is worth a watch. It just finished off its first season on FX and chronicles the life of a single mom named Sam Fox, a divorced actress who's trying to raise her three daughters by herself. It's full of female empowerment, realistic situations, and laugh-out-loud moments that leave me ravenous for the next episode. I keep hearing people refer to it as 'the next Louie,' but they're wrong; it's in a league of its own." — QK
