TV show description:
This television drama series is executive produced by Steven Soderbergh and is based on the 2009 film of the same name. A Girlfriend Experience (GFE) is a sexual encounter between an escort and a client that involves sexual intimacy and some degree of emotional intimacy.
A law student at Chicago Burnham Law School and an intern at the prestigious Kirkland & Allen law firm, Christine Reade (Riley Keough) becomes intrigued when a friend introduces her to the world of GFEs — where the boundaries between a financial transaction and a romantic relationship are blurred.
Attracted to the rush of control and intimacy, Christine has to confront her own conflicting identities. However, she quickly learns to navigate and manipulate the politics of both worlds to get what she wants.
A power lawyer, husband and father, David Tellis (Paul Sparks) is a partner at KIrkland & Allen. He seems to have it all — including a secret. His relationship with his new intern, Christine, threatens to derail both of their futures.
A partner at the prestigious law firm, Erin Roberts (Mary Lynn Rajskub) is both friend and foe to David and Christine. Meanwhile, Christine’s sister, Annabel Reade (Amy Seimetz), is a public defender and is her sibling’s connection to home.
Avery Suhr (Kate Lyn Shell) is Christine’s friend from law school who happily introduces her to her side career as a GFE. Once Christine starts having success, Avery becomes quite jealous.

What do you think? Do you like The Girlfriend Experience TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for another season?
Please renew the show but I hope you come up with better ideas than season 3.
I would love to see a season 3, 4 5 & so on. Please bring it back!
I really hope another season happens!! We love this show!!
Please keep The Girlfriend Experience. We very much enjoy. Waiting for things to catch up to Christine. Apears she’s destined for trouble.
Great show, hope to see more of them!! A++++
It shouldn’t have been renewed with a 0.06 average per show rating. It will be back for another season. Considering that practically NOBODY watched it(which means if you did, you’re a NOBODY) I am surprised. In saw I some of it. it wasn’t bad, but it shouldn’t have been renewed.
Yes it should be renewed!!! This is mine and my husband’s new favorite indulgence!! Only wish it was an hour instead of half hour!
Has anyone heard of when Starz will make a decision on renewing this show?, to me the entire 13 episodes was well written and directed. It took Christine from never considering such a thing as a GFE provider to near the top of the profession and in the end she was in total control. Her emotional state of never getting close to anyone was necessary to keep that separation of who she was to who she became.She is in the end a master at compartmentalization. She is not a sociopath she discovered she didn’t want the life of a lawyer… Read more »
