The premiere was a big improvement over what ABC had been getting in the timeslot but isn’t exactly an impressive premiere. Pan Am and The River, which will both surely be cancelled, debuted much better.
Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you like GCB TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?

I like all the players, not the story line so much and it’s hard to get interested in an ABC series, they tend to pull the plug on the good ones!
I love the show. Since I live in the area I can SO relate to parts of the show. I find myself saying “that’ reminds me of so & so”. Lol.
kill this show amen
What does GCB mean?
The show’s title was initially Good Christian ******* (based on a book of the same name), then was renamed to Good Christian Belles. It was then shortened to GCB.
I LOVE this show! It reminds me so much of Popular. I like how they show that people can go too overboard when it comes to being Catholic/religious.
Couldn’t get through a show. This show needs a miracle makeover.
Love love we need more!!!
Loved it, it;s hilarious and awesome!!! Kudos to ABC and Paul Lee as CEO.
KEEP THE SHOW!!! I love it!
I love it. It’s smart, witty, and funny as heck! The lady returning to town can beat the “holier than thou” at their own game. I just hope the intolerant right wing “moral majority” doesn’t invoke sharia law and have the show taken off the air.
This show is Blasphamy—to the fullest. Taking the Lord’s word out of context and making fun of Christians. Get rid of it now.
I love this show. It’s so real that’s why the holy rollers are so bent out of shape over it. This goes on so get over it.
Dump this turkey.
Imagine what would happen if the title was GMB.
It is very clear that this show is nothing more than an attempt to make fun of Christians and people who attend church. It is an attempt to portray them as hipocrites who are all evil and phony people. I guess the Hollywood liberals will be happy when all decency and morality in America is gone. They will be satisfied when the generation of people who attend church and seek God’s guidence for their lives and raise their children in the church and try to live in the will of God are all gone, and America is left with dark… Read more »
No they aren’t hipocrites…they are hypocrites. And if you don’t like the show, change the ******* channel. God bless you 🙂
Cancel. If the premier is any indication of what is to come, kill this one now.
