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:

What do you think? Have you been watching the Good Girls TV show on NBC? Are you glad that it’s been renewed for a third season?
This is the best show! They are likeable, smart, strong, caring women with relatable issues. They have talents and abilities that are being under utilized, even as they are the ones being supportive to others. There is the time/energy/money crunch that puts a strain on relationships that many people can relate to… But what makes this show refreshing, is how they try to deal with seemingly insurmountable challenges with humor and empathy. They have to learn to navigate unkown areas of life. It’s a risk we all have to take. Will a very risky gambit pay off in the end?… Read more »
DDEFINITELY WANT THIS SHOW TO CONTINUE IT HAS LAUGHS, SCARES, ETC. EXCELLENT…
I absolutely love Good Girls, i watch it on Hulu. Thank you for renewing it. I can’t wait to see what happens in season 3.
I LOVE this show! I can’t wait for season 3..and Rio 🙂 More people would watch it if they heard about it, I saw it on my Netflix suggestions. No one I’ve asked has heard of it. I watched the first episode to see what it was about and have been hooked since. I’m 34yrs, cheers to many more seasons to come!!
I have been watching good girls since day one, it is the best show I have watched in a long time, it keeps you on your toes and it’s different, not to mention Rio, I’m 64 and I will be very disappointed if this show is canceled, it’s about time a good show is on for us older women, me and my neighbors get together and watch this weekly show, please renew good girls for ten episodes,
Thank you,
Evelyn Diaz
Love this show,when is it going to be on?????????
Love this show, I can’t believe more people are not watching it, I guess it’s the networks fault. They never market it or show clips or previews, I tell my friends to watch it, and they say they never heard of it….As I remember, I just stumbled on it myself. I hadn’t heard of it either. Come on network, do some marketing and get the word out how great this series is.
Great show . Thanks for the renewal
Great show. Very happy the show has been renewed
I absolutely love the show, cant wait for season 3,…. hurry up !!! 🙂
I love it! So glad they renewed! Thanks NBC!
Love this show. I love the fact these women are strong. They also have love and empathy for others and each other. They take the control back, in their lives. Not letting men control them.
I love this show. I’m 60 years old and watch it with my 25 year old daughter. Each character brings something different to the show. All funny and complicated at the same time. Very identifiable in real life.
We live in Germany and we watch Good Girls on Netflix in English. We love each episode and look forward to seeing the continuation in 2020. Please don’t cancel. Make it go on and on and on. Best Character is Rio. Mexican. Yes. We can relate to him since we are both Mexican. I just think they shouldn’t make him seem so inhuman.
I LOVE this show! The cast/characters are each great but putting them together makes for wonderful episodes that draws you in.
