Despite some low ratings, the Good Girls TV show has been renewed for a third season at NBC. A half dozen episodes of the second season have aired on Sunday nights and they’ve averaged a 0.62 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.41 million viewers (in the live+same day ratings). Compared to the first season, that’s down by 40% in the demo and down by 46% in viewership.
A dark NBC comedy drama, Good Girls stars Christina Hendricks, Retta, Mae Whitman, Matthew Lillard, Reno Wilson, Manny Montana, Lidya Jewett, and Izzy Stannard. The TV series centers on three suburban mothers who have been struggling to get by. After a series of setbacks, they hold up the local Fine & Frugal supermarket, but their take far exceeds their expectations. Soon, they’re in deep with the local crime boss, and these “good girls” find themselves with an array of bad choices. In season two, the women have to deal with the fallout of their criminality.
Here’s NBC’s renewal announcement:

I love this show! I have been waiting 1 full season for Rio and Beth to finally have sex!!! Omfggggg. You guys are killing me in suspense omggg I love this show. season 3 should be amazing! I’m surprised that this show got a low rating.
Maybe the ratings are low because we had to wait so long for Season 2. I love Good Girls but I won’t wait for Season 3 if it’s going to take another year to air.
This show makes my life “normal” as i enjoy and eagerly anticipate what’s coming next from these amazing women as they encounter, overcome and then suddenly try to get through subsequent surprises! The acting is realistic and the writing is crisp, fast-paced, funny and clever. What am i going to do until GG-Season 3 begins anew?
Super excited for season 3. Love love LOVE Good Girls.
love this show! So excited it will be back for season 3!!!
