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?

Plese renew this show! It’s a laugh out loud kind of show! My husband and didn’t miss an episode. Can’t wait until it returns next season!Not sure why there are objections to this show. People need to lighten up.
GCB is the best show ABC has put on Sunday nights. Please bring it back for second season and more
This is a great show and despite what some want to believe it doesnt insult christians or christianity at all. It actually has a far better christian message than pretty much every show on tv.
Please don’t cancel GCB show! It really is a good
show!!!! Keep it! At least there is something
else to watch besides all the reality tv!
My husband and I live in the south and have loved this show since inception! Please renew!!
Love this show. Very entertaining. Please renew for a second season.
I’ve watched each episode with a great deal of enjoyment. It is hillarious! Having grown up in the South, I can relate to a lot of these characters even if they are ficticious. I surely hope that ABC will renew it for a second season. For those who don’t like it, watch something else!
LOVE GCB!!! It is hilarious!! Its a breath of fresh air, not to be taken seriously. If you don’t like that type of comedy, turn the channel. For those of us that enjoy it, please bring us Season 2!!
Covering and boycotting this show since it’s inception, some Christians remain appalled that the show continued for as long as it has. We will continue to pray and voice our concerns over the injustice that GCB has already done to the Christian NAME. If you are interested there are numerous articles to reinforce the voice of some Christians who find it offensive.

RENEW!!! Love this show!
PLEASE renew GCB….what a funny and wellwritten comedy. The cast is wonderful. Finally something good to look forward to on ABC on Sunday nights. Its fresh and original…
Please renew !!! LOVE IT!!! Funny as heck!!
It stinks!!! Can’t wait t0 see it cancelled.
Wasn’t sure at first, love it now! I’m a fan of Desperate Housewifes, needed a good replacement.
Please renew, it’s a funny spin on things that happen in church. I have personally seen the so called church leaders and the wannabee’s and the workerbee’s, and this show is hilarious.
