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.

I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS NOT RIGHT THAT ITS BEING CANCELED .
This was the BEST show!!! Why in the world was this cancelled???? I am so sad..this was my favorite! I loved the characters and it was just a chance to sit back and laugh and not take things to serious!
GCB is the funniest show on ABC by far! it’s smart, different and the characters are a riot! Why on earth cancel such a good show? The timeslot is irrelevant to me, I watch it online. Please don’t cancel!!
Please renew!!!!
Please bring this show back it’s the only show I watch on ABC ever. I love it!!!! Move the time slot up to 8 or 9. Or a different night will work as long as GCB stays on air.
Please. ABC. RENEW GCB! Possibly, the ratings are a bit
lower due to the late timeslot. Try an earlier time. Its funny, has a wonderful cast great writers, and sits well with the male population as we’ll. Then bring back desperate housewives, and please, no more reality shows! Just give me GCB!
Finally found a show worth watching that isn’t reality tv and they want to cancel it? This isn’t fair for us veiwers who want to watch a real show with comedy instead of an hour of ridiculous reality tv… makes me upset with abc and their decisions.
Love this show! Please don’t cancel it!!!!!! Best comedy in a long time my husband even likes watching it with me.
Please do no cancel, I love it an I find it interesting how the writer’s can put it all together to be funny yet Christian.. Fantastic!!
Looooooooove the show!!! Praying it will be renewed!
Definitely consistently great for some kicks and giggles every week!!! Don’t cancel, please!
Please don’t cancel ! It’s one of the best shows on tv !
RENEW!!!! This is a great show. There are so many shows out there that do even come close to the character of this series. Please keep it on the air!!!!!
Please do not cancel. This is a great show. Tons of fun. Comes on too late for Sunday night. Try changing time slot. This show us the
PLEASE RENEW!!! We soooo need something besides reality TV! I haven’t laughed so hard in a long time! It is so witty and clever! Please keep it!
