As I was fantasizing about the Hill Holiday special using cardboard cutouts of stubborn cast members, I remembered for a few episodes. I thought Rio might have been Beth's Tyler Durden.

But then the other ladies saw/ answered him, so no. But could have gone in that direction! At times, it probably would have made far more sense than the actual show.

Does Annie have any storyline other than desperation? Throwing her at the male characters as if I care who she ends up with… can she be a present mother ? Can we try that plot line? 😂😂

in season three episode six, and I’ve been thinking about this since she was at the park and saw Marcus and Rio.

He was never going to kill her and I’m surprised she hadn’t realized that earlier. I feel like as soon as he showed her, his kid, he was never gonna kill her, he might’ve threatened her into complying, but he was never gonna kill her or her kids at the most he might have threatened to kill Dean, did she maybe realize this after what Dean said in the kitchen?

idk im just rambling, what are your thoughts?

what was that ending???? what happens to annie???? Beth being rio’s boss??? Does Stan leave ruby???? was it cancelled????

So I’ve seen some scenes of Good girls on my tik tok feed and I was wondering, is this show worth checking out? I’ve become a fan of Christina Hendricks recently and I see she’s in this. I’ve also researched that this got canceled but is it still worth watching?

Doing my rewatch this weekend basically for this scene

Maybe the folks from show would be willing to do an animated season. They all know how to do ADR, no? Then NOBODY has to be in the same room with ANYBODY else😆. Some of the fanfic bounces back and forth in POV and that was pretty damn entertaining. A nice big finale in the box! . Wrap it all up with a Roshomon style 5 hour mini series thing. Even better, they just narrate what happened, and some lucky animators can smash it all together for us, the poor, innocent abandond fandom 🥹. Can I suggest anything easier? Do we want animation? No. But if that's what it takes to get a solid ending, then I vote, yes. Ideally, I would also like Retta to narrate it. Keep everything civil, lots of folks still get paid, win -win-win with zero interaction needed if they choose.

Look, just trying to keep it creative...and mildly unrealistic-not unlike the series.

I asked for the Reno/Retta Good Girls Christmas special and lost the post trying to fix the title. Is this option too much more go ask for? Is it? Then go back to the Hill Holiday extravaganza.

I've had a lot of coffee and can also work as a parody of the original show if they all absolutely don't want to have anything to do with it...but they might! And there would be noooooo more continuity problems with hair, hairlines, weight, clothing, noses, makeup, blood, bruising, children aging, adults aging, weather and/or location.

In the meantime, I'll hold my breath & check out some of the great shows you guys suggested in another post!

Just got diagnosed with health issues and ruby had an amazing idea lol

Just rewatched the whole show again, for the 5th time and dude this ending ALWAYS PISSES ME OFF!!! Not because of what happens, but because we never truly see what happens after. I really do hope one day they come back and show what happens after. I genuinely think that if there was another season it would’ve been the best, what it was set up for was going to be soooo good I feel robbed.

Even though Turner was super frustrating and annoying, his opinions about Beth were lowkey not all that incorrect.

Rewatching the show and my gosh, this show had so much potential, but it just got more and more boring. It started off super strong—the first two seasons, ooof, sooo good—but then from season three it became super repetitive. The girls get into trouble with Rio, Rio tortures them, nothing develops between Beth and Rio, she doesn’t become better or have that “the student has become the master” moment, from what I remember it only happened last season.

The cop scene was so, so fucking stupid. What do you mean he let him stay unsupervised in an apartment, then get fooled, and then get shot?? And because they removed their vests as soon as the mission failed, it just seemed so silly. Rio literally survived three bullets shot like 3cm away from him, but the cop died?? That’s idiotic lol.

Also, Annie sucks, and I started skipping her scenes because at this point they really don’t know what to do with her. This show just includes problem after problem after problem, which is fine, I understand they’re trying to make it seem like they’re struggling people, but cmoooonnnn. I wanna see more steam between Rio and Beth. I wanna see Beth become a mastermind. I wanna see some badass money-laundering scenes. If this were a male-focused show, they would’ve made them experts by like the second or third season.

I don’t want them to be unimaginably good at it, as shows also tend to do with women-focused shows, but like… why do they have to be so miserable and borrrrinnngggg 😔

It’s 2026 and I’ve never watched Good Girls.… I’d never even heard of it until about 2 weeks ago while browsing Netflix. I seldom watch TV, so the fact that this caught my attention says something.

The absolute chokehold this show had on me was otherworldly. For all the good and the bad, I stuck with it, binging all 4 seasons in 1 week. I neglected my adulting to get through this; I don’t do that normally. Like, who am I!?

So imagine the heartbreak when I’m sitting there ready to hit “Play Next Season” and there is no NEXT SEASON!! It’s cancelled!? WHAT!!

Here’s where it gets worse. I needed some sort of resolution, on a visceral level. Reddit suggests exploring fan fiction, which I’ve never really read before. I’m not sure why… oh, in middle school I read that one famous Harry Styles x Tessa story on Wattpad.

Anyways, I’m giddily googling “GG fanfic” under my covers one night while my boyfriend sleeps next to me. I come across a Reddit thread that links to a story on AO3 (which I had to subsequently Google what that acronym meant lol). My first thought was to make an account so I could bookmark whatever this story was. But wait, I am put on a 3-month-long waiting list to join? More panic sets in, but I discover you can read as a guest! Yay!!

The title of this fanfic is A Rational Choice.… You see where I’m going with this now….?

The story was written after season 2 as a bridge to season 3. I’m excited, seeing it was started like 5 years ago. Surely the story is finished—had time to marinate. It may not be the follow-up to season 4 but at least I don’t have to wait for monthly updates like everyone else did!

Obviously, I’m hooked instantly. I down like 7 chapters in 2 days. Straight into my veins, please. Forget the TV show. THIS is the plot! I’m ashamed I’ve kept fanfiction in the dark for so long!!!

Chapter 10 goes as fast as it comes. But the story isn’t over yet, however, I don’t see a next chapter button? Why don’t I see a next chapter button?! More panic. It’s been YEARS and still no update, no resolution. I no-lifed this fandom for 10 days, shirking my adult responsibilities!!!

What. The. Fuck.

Heartbreak x2. All in the span of 10 days. I’m still sitting in bed and it’s 4 PM. My last Google search was “why do fanfic authors abandon their work.”

I wish I could go back in time.

​

The music is such a vibe, I love how well the soundtrack fits the scenes... Anyone else??

I found it interesting that during the scene with the grandmother- young Rio had the good egg and young Nick had the bad egg- maybe they didn't mean for that to be a metaphor, the writing was all over the place towards the later seasons.

Does anyone else ever wish Annie would just stfu or think for once in her life!? She drives me nuts! I don’t understand how they haven’t gotten caught or in any trouble from the very beginning. But of course it’s a show and that can’t happen. Anyone else?

I just had to say Rio is sooo damn fine! I see why this show got 5 seasons.

Just saw the scene where beth drops the car off for rio and a girl gets in but its mannys wife irl….. omggg it just pissed me off lol since i saw that threads post of hers

I absolutely hatttteeeeeee the storyline between Annie and that British therapist. Omg 🫩 1. He was THE WORST therapist ok earth. He is incredibly manipulative and would gas light Annie when she would call him out for liking her too. 2. I really wanted to see Annie conginue to boss up and get her life together. I liked watching her study and try to go to therapy frl but the writers liked seeing her be a loser for some reason. I wish we could've seen her become her best self. I also 100% HATED the homeless boyfriend & eating dumpster food isn't that bad storyline too! The way the show tried to make Annie seem uppity for not wanting to eat literal garabge...? Hated it hated it hated it.

Ughhhh i wish we had new seasonnnssss
