FX has renewed both Donald Glover's Atlanta, and Pamela Adlon's Better Things for second seasons.
Nick Grad and Eric Schrier, presidents of original programming at FX Networks and FX Productions, announced the network has ordered 10 new episodes for each of the series.
"It is clear to us that Atlanta and Better Things have struck a nerve with viewers, which is a credit to Donald Glover’s vision for Atlanta and Pamela Adlon’s vision for Better Things," said Grad and Schrier. "They, along with their spectacular casts, writers and directors, have created exceptional shows that we are incredibly proud to produce."
Atlanta, a comedy focusing on two cousins working through the Atlanta music scene, had the most-watched basic cable primetime scripted comedy premiere in over three years in the 18-49 demographic. Its viewer numbers have been increasing between episodes, and it then went on to become the most watched telecast of a new comedy series in 18-49 since April 2014.
Better Things follows the story of Sam Fox (Pamela Adlon) raising her three daughters in Los Angeles. It's described as FX's "most female-driven comedy ever," and it had the second most-watched basic cable comedy series premiere of the year among women ages 18-34, behind only Atlanta.
IGN's review of the pilot says "Better Things may fill the Louie void in your life."
