According to a report by Deadline, they state that plans did include a future whereby only Netflix would show Good Girls season 5 exclusively but would’ve had to make deals work under any existing pay structure. Could they have made the show’s fifth season? They also cite troubles between the relationship of Christina Hendricks and Manny Montana too but ultimately concluded too many factors made the show impossible to renew. After all, it had the streaming numbers for all regions and has jumped onto revive shows in similar situations in the past ( Designated Survivor and Lucifer being prime examples).Īccording to their report, it ultimately came down to money, creative differences, and scheduling with multiple sources saying “renewal hit a major snag in mid-June when negotiations with co-star Manny Montana hit a wall”. If NBC passed on the show, surely Netflix could’ve jumped in to save the day. Contrast that to Manifest, another canceled NBC show (although not produced by NBC), which was shopped elsewhere and eventually picked up by Netflix for a supersized final season. Perhaps more pertinently to this announcement was the fact that the show wouldn’t be shopped elsewhere. Why wasn’t Good Girls renewed for season 5? While the opposite was true, it was reported in June 2021 that the show would not be returning. In the 2020-21 season, a number of NBC shows were expected to be axed with one of the shows mentioned being Good Girls. The series wasn’t one of the best performing shows for the network but still managed to maintain a good global audience thanks, in part, to Netflix.
It also rose to the top 10 spot after its addition to Netflix US pulling in 24,500,000 hours viewed between March 6th and March 13th. When it was added to Netflix internationally (outside the US) it was in the global top 10 for 4 weeks. Good Girls does pull in some impressive numbers for Netflix. It’s not the first NBC show to get this treatment, The Good Place notably was a Netflix Original outside the US too. The show is distributed by Netflix internationally as a Netflix Original.
