‘Good Girls’ Officially Canceled After 4 Seasons at NBC
All good things must come to an end, and unfortunately, Good Girls is coming to a close sooner than expected.
The dark comedy starring Christina Hendricks, Retta, and Mae Whitman has been canceled at NBC after a four-season run. Hope for the show lingered as Netflix considered taking on the program, but according to The Hollywood Reporter, that option has also vanished.
The show had found a relatively strong fanbase on the streamer when new seasons were added, but Netflix won’t continue the show it holds global rights to. The news comes amid Season 4’s continued airing on NBC.
The final five installments will continue to air on NBC in its 10/9c slot on Sundays. From creator Jenna Bans, Good Girls followed sisters Beth (Hendricks) and Annie (Whitman) and friend Ruby (Retta) as they attempt to solve their financial issues in an unconventional way. Their suburban escapades soon catch the attention of a local gang leader (Manny Montana‘s Rio), sparking a series of events no one could have fathomed.

The show reportedly was going to be renewed for a fifth and final season on NBC as Universal Television wanted to continue the series, but financial issues got in the way. The original series joins other canceled titles at the network including Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist, Manifest, and Debris.
Let us know how you feel about the cancellation, and sound off in the comments section below.

Why? Why? Why? This is truly one of the best shows in years. Not your everyday family fallout, cheating husband themes, just intense and really worth the anticipation! Do not delete!!!

WHAT THE ??!! Are those Heads Crazy? Isn't there anything sacred anymore? Good Girls is one of the best shows EVER !! Original,Suspenseful and " Quirky " Funny . The way TV (NBC) programming is headed we will be left with only those Fake "Reality" and Game shows! Is there anything we the viewers ,the Money, aka the consumers can do to get Good Girls back in production? Perhaps start a. Petition, I have heard of this. Has anyone else ? Hmmm...

WOW....this is my favorite show. NBC is really making a mistake cancelling this show. I guess I will stop watching anything on this network. They are losing allot of viewers because of stupid moves like this.

OH NO 😢I just found out today that Good Girls was canceled , I am shocked and heartbroken 💔. What is wrong with that NBC?? They cancel one of their Best Shows, if not THE BEST!!! I think it's time for them to shuffle up their deck, and toss out the JOKERS !!! Especially those who have no clue about their viewers wants or they just don't care🙄!! I wish we really had a way to get through to them. Instead of just sounding off, does anyone reading this know how?? Maybe there is POWER IN NUMBERS🤔 Anyone......??

How could they..besides the Chicago Series..Good Girls was the best show on NBC. I never liked NBC anyway. TV is not the same. All they have is reality TV shows..no good comdies or drama sitcoms..just the awful talent shows.. They could at least end it with a bang. Im so disappointed in NBC. If the Chicago series wasn't so dang good I would boycott NBC. Ruby,Stan,Beth,Dean,Annie and especially Rio I'm going to miss you

The only show I looked forward to watching. Just like Good Girls, to leave us begging for more

This just plain sucks. This was a great show. I swear the networks just want to put on more brain dead shows, game shows or talent shows. So over it.

I would love to IMPROVISE with Manny (rio) 😜😜 NBC will probably put more AMERICA GOT TALENT crap on. NBC sucks!

Disappointing! To say the least.

It is very clear that the big broadcast channels could care less about their audience. Four shows that I watched on NBC have been unceremoniously canceled without any wrap up. They are more interested in reality and game shows now.

...and Call Me Kat was renewed by Fox? NBC isn't alone making bad decisions.
