An unfinished story. After Good Girls unexpectedly ended its time on NBC, the cast and the fans have continued to show their love for the series.
The crime drama, which premiered in February 2018, explored the lives of three suburban mothers as they attempted to make more money to take care of their families. After deciding to rob a supermarket, the group of friends get caught up in various heists connected to a local gang.
