When sisters Beth and Annie and their best friend Ruby become fed up with playing by the rules and not getting the respect they deserve, they band together to take control of their lives -- by holding up a local grocery store. Beth's the perfect wife and mother, but her used-car-dealing, cheating husband has sent her family into financial ruin; Ruby is happily married to a policeman but can't afford the medical bills and experimental drugs to help her daughter; and Annie, a single mom, is caught in a nasty custody battle with her ex. In desperate need of money, the women plan the heist expecting to ease their financial burdens. But new to the game of crime, they get pulled in deeper than they ever imagined -- and the only way out of this will be together.

Judy Berman TIME Magazine 12/20/2018
Charming as their performances were, the trio of beloved actors couldn't redeem a series burdened by tepid writing, underdeveloped characters and a conspicuous thirst for armchair-liberal and internet-feminist approval. Go to Full Review Guy Pewsey London Evening Standard 07/30/2018
Good Girls is smart, funny and impossibly watchable thanks to the excellent cast of three actors at their best. Go to Full Review John Doyle Globe and Mail 07/20/2018
For all the slapstick and zingers, it's still a drama about three suburban Detroit mothers having a hard time trying to make ends meet. Go to Full Review Graeme Tuckett The Post NZ 03/09/2020
It's such a reliable and adaptable chassis to hang a show on, it's not really any surprise that the makers of Good Girls manage to inject some truly funny material and situations into every episode. Go to Full Review Diego Jemio Clarín 06/05/2019
There is good chemistry between [the protagonists] and the minutes flow quickly. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Kiera Allen Daily Journal (Kankakee, IL) 03/15/2019
"Good Girls" is a serious show about three women on the verge of suffering from a nervous breakdown, and as someone watching at home -- you feel for them, easily. But even with such a serious tone, the show still manages to be laugh-out-loud funny. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Stephen C @bob25009 Jan 2 10 funny National Broadcasting Company episodes. Rated TV-14. See more Hashae M Nov 8 Rewatching and I remember why I stopped, it’s a decent show with a good concept. I’m no crime boss, but if you know anything about crime or I don’t know have any common sense, this show is not believable. Characters constantly shoot themselves in the foot over and over again, it makes it hard to watch. Characters are lovable, but that younger sister has moments where you just almost pass out from annoyance. I know it’s a show but situations are not at all like real life, no way you can continue to not be smart and just magically get away with terrible decisions. One of the main things is they keep trying to act like they’re good people when they’ve already gone way bad. They don’t listen to Rio which if they did it would alleviate most of their problems, which is annoying to the tenth degree. With better writing about circumstances this could’ve been one of the best shows I ever watched. See more Steve E Jun 8 Excellent character driven series if one can get past the preposterous premises that truckloads of money can be washed through a few small businesses and that three people can create counterfeit money easily in, yes, a washing machine. See more Harold T Jun 2 "Good Girls" starts with a compelling premise, reminiscent of "Breaking Bad" with a female twist. However, it never really finds a consistent tone between comedy, drama, and crime. The character of Annie Marks is especially irritating: childish, silly, and often unbearable. From episode six onward, the show slows down considerably — the plot becomes dull and predictable, and the three lead women make increasingly foolish and illogical decisions. It's a missed opportunity that ends up being more frustrating than entertaining. See more Pat H 01/23/2025 Doesn’t make much sense but there are some good lines. See more DMC M @Dee1957 01/22/2025 So far it's not too bad. See more Read all reviews
