Summary
Co-created by Pamela Adlon and Louis C.K., this series follows Sam Fox (Adlon), a single mom and working actor -- with lots of love but no real filter -- who also acts as a dad, referee, and sometimes even the police, raising her three daughters in Los Angeles. She also watches out for her mother, (Celia Imrie), a British expat, who lives across the street. Sam's just trying to earn a living, navigate her daughters' lives, have fun with a friend or two and also -- just maybe -- squeeze in some private time once in a while
