Every week on The A.V. Club Hosted By John Teti, John asks writers to tell him what they like. In this web-only extra, assistant editor Danette Chavez heaps praise on the dramedy Better Things, starring Pamela Adlon in a Louie-esque self-portrayal. It’s a fantastic show, as you’ll hear Danette tell you in this video. The A.V. Club Hosted By John Teti can be seen every Thursday night on Fusion.
