Pamela Adlon, the showrunner of FX’s “Better Things,” discusses Season 4 of the series, in which she stars, writes, directs and produces. Adlon opens up about how the series continues to go deeper on the dark and hilarious sides of being a single mom, but also insists her show is a comedy for everyone. “I feel I am representing a bigger picture. We're all part of the same chain,” the Emmy and Peabody Award winner said on “Salon Talks.”
