NBC orders up Mae Whitman and Retta’s Good Girls
The TV pick-ups, renewals, and cancellations continue to come in hot today, with NBC announcing that it’s adding a new crime dramedy, Good Girls, to its 2017-2018 slate. Showrun by Jenna Bans—whose past credits include Desperate Housewives, Grey’s Anatomy, and the recently death-sentenced Scandal—the series centers on a group of suburban housewives who decide to Walter White their lives up with a little (fake) armed robbery. Things inevitably escalate from there, with gunfire, consequences, and general unexpected collateral damage along the way.
