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?

Love this show! Reallyh want it to stay on.
Cancel it. Watching it literally makes you dumber by the second. You can do alot better with your time. If hypocrisy bothers you, do something about it more constructive than watching this ridiculous show.
You cannot cancel this show! It is the best ever! In fact its the funniest show ever! Im catholic and enjoy the way the produce the show. If it got cancelled I would die!
Please give up the false disgust with the show and acknowledge that you feel picked on and hate to have your hypocrisy broadcast to the world. Maybe if some of you who are so disgusted saw the show for what it is as opposed to some anti Christian show you would like the show. The show is not against the Christian faith but the people who become too full of themselves and become judgmental. Some people need to be reminded to take the plank out of their eye before they spend all their time pointing out the splinters in the… Read more »
Love It!! Finally not a reality show w/ humor. Some are judging it based on the title not the humor. Trust me we all know people like this in our neighborhoods & yes especially Church.
LOVE THI SHOW! However, in my opinion, a person can’t just watch the show a few minutes and decide it’s not worth watching. You have to let the characters develop…which they have now. If you only catch an episode here and there, you still have missed a lot that’s been going on in the show. Hope it’s NOT cancelled.
Love love love the show. Was so down because Desperate House. Was ending but I like GCB better! Please keep it !!!
Cancel it. In its first showing, it made fun of Christians 72 times. When people say it doesn’t they either dont get it or they enjoy the insults. I’m from Dallas go to school there. I can assure you the California girl would look like the nut job 99% made of plastic. In Dallas, especially conservative Christian parts, over spending is frowned upon. Using “enhancement” surgery is deemed disgusting. Whatever these Hollywood morons are thinking is beyond me. It’s amazing how many people misconstrued what texans looks like. If you are looking for cowboys/cowgirls (nothing wrong with that) but they… Read more »
Yeah right you just don’t want the hypocrisy in the christian religion to be exposed.Theres PLENTY of that when it comes to christianity and christians period.
once you get to know the characters, this show is really good. don’t brush it aside just by watching for a few minutes. it really is a fresh change to all the crap that is out there now. i love it
Wow great show I hope they keep it!!!
Hate it wish it wad canceled right now. What a shame just as worse as these reality shows. Gcb sucks
GCB is a good show and so much better than Pan Am and some other shows that are on today. Don’t like it, watch something else and let us who like drama with a twist have our Show.
Love it. Look forward to Sunday night to watch it! 🙂 Please give it a chance!!!!
I think the show is terrible. It is not even funny (if that is what it is supposed to be). Cancel it!
KEEP THE SHOW!!!!! OMG its soooooo GOOD i LOVE IT! im from Dallas and it is actually no lie that is how it kinda is lol it has good actors, it’s funny and it is not making fun of Christians it is actually good that a show is making God and faith be important and there hasn’t been nudity, cursing or sexual intercourse like other shows…so I SAY RENEW AND KEEP
I’ve tried to watch on a couple of occasions, but had to turn it off. I did not find it entertaining in the least. There’s always something better to do than watch bad TV.
