Good Girls Season 4 Released on Netflix

While the show’s fourth season only recently arrived on Netflix for fans in the UK, the series release was somewhat dampened by the cancellation news. Good Girls, starring Christina Hendricks, came to a premature end this summer when US network NBC announced that it wouldn’t be renewing the crime drama for a fifth season. Read on for everything you need to know.

While NBC cancelled Good Girls after its fourth series in June, the network originally planned to end the show with a fifth and final season, according to TVLine. “But unfortunately we were unable to make the financials work.” While other sources told the publication that the show’s cancellation came about when negotiations about money and scheduling with star Manny Montana “hit a wall”.

It’s not completely out of the question for Good Girls to make it to season five on another channel after the show’s cancellation by NBC. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look as though Netflix will save the day in this instance, with Deadline reporting that Universal Television isn’t planning on shopping the show elsewhere as it had a co-production/international distribution deal with Netflix already and that the streamer had already been considered as an option but it didn’t work out.

What Is It Tough To Be A Tv Fan?

Man, it is tough being a TV fan, right? Sometimes the perfect show comes along, which fits your sensibilities just right and manages to debut at just the right time in your life, and it actually becomes appointment viewing for you, even with the dozens upon dozens of choices we have when it comes to televised entertainment now. But, because of all of those options, even our favorites can have a hard time finding an audience, and we all, eventually, have to deal with a show we love to watch getting the boot.

Obviously, that planned eight-episode season would have given fans a true ending for the story of three cash-strapped suburban moms who turn to a life of crime, and then end up with way more trouble than they intended. Apparently, the renewal looked like a done deal, with production set for spring 2022, but the show was cancelled a month later. Multiple sources to the outlet, who have ties to Good Girls, its production company Universal Television, and NBC, are saying that money wasn’t the issue behind the cancellation, but possible behind the scenes issues between lead Christina Hendricks and co-star Manny Montana, who plays Rio, the crime boss constantly holding the women’s lives in his hands, might be.

However, there’s speculation that Montana’s somewhat strained working relationship with Hendricks may have led him to disagree with the terms of the deal he was being offered, with the thought being that he was unwilling to deal with those on-set tensions and a cut in pay. If you spent any time at all watching Good Girls, though, you will know that none of that potential animosity came across on camera, at least not when it shouldn’t. Their constant battles and flirtatious nature definitely helped to fuel the show, but many see the idea that Good Girls was cancelled because a supporting male character wouldn’t sign on as ironic.

The series was never a big ratings winner for NBC (though it does very well on Netflix, which came close to picking it up), so some believe that the studio was looking for any excuse to cancel the show. Good Girls isn’t quite done yet, as the two-hour series finale will air on Thursday, July 22, at 9 p.m. EST.
