There was just one show from last season that was awaiting its fate, and today Good Girls found out what it is. According to The Hollywood Reporter, it did not get a fifth season, and what would have been a final season, from NBC.
The studio tried to get Netflix to pick it up, but they passed on it. Therefore, we will never find out if and how the Good Girls, Christina Hendricks, Retta, and Mae Whitman will get themselves out of the trouble they got themselves into.
Are you sad that we won’t find out how it would’ve ended?
Last week, NBC cancelled Manifest, and the producer shopped the series around. Sadly, even though it is one of Netflix’s most-watched shows, they could not find it home.
Executive Producer Jeff Flake wrote, “Manifest Gratitude, Final Edition.
“Thank YOU, our fans. You became the Manifesters at Comic-Con 2018. Ever since, you’ve watched religiously, parsed every word, cried a lot, laughed a little, puzzle-solved, and never, ever, wavered in your support. I’ll never forget it. 🙏❤️”
Like 828, the plane is out there with nowhere to land.
Are you sad we didn’t get to find out how it would’ve ended had they made it to season 6?
Last week, Manifest aired its season 3 finale with a lot of cliffhangers. Today, we found if all of those cliffhangers helped get the show another season. It did not.
The show’s creator Jeff Rake wrote, “My dear Manifesters,
“I’m devastated by NBC’s decision to cancel us. That we’ve been shut down in the middle is a gut punch to say the least. Hoping to find a new home. You the fans deserve an ending to your story. Thanks for the love shown to me, cast, and crew. #savemanifest”
I am OK with the show ending. That is because anytime a Sci-Fi show brings the Bible or Gd into the storyline, it spells death or boredom. It happened with Supernatural when they added an actual Gd character onto the series. The same happened with Lucifer this season. And it spelled doomsday for Manifest when they tied 828 to Noah’s ark. The second they mentioned that I was still tuning in, but I was also tuned out.
Are you sad that the show had a crash landing midway through what the producers were hoping would be a 6-season run?
NBC had to halt production on Ultimate Slip ‘N Slide after around 40 crew members came down with explosive diarrhea, according to Entertainment Weekly. One member of the crew tested positive for giardia, and the other 39 ran to the port-o-potties to make a disgusting mess. Better in the portable bathrooms than on the slide. Well, for them at least. I would have wanted to see the episode where we got to see the contestants go down the slide and leave a brown slide in their wake.
Back to giardia, according to CDC, it is a parasite that is spread via water or surfaces that are contaminated with infected poop. Therefore, NBC made a decision for the final week of production.
“The health and safety of everyone on our set is our number one priority, so out of an abundance of caution we have made the decision to stop production of Ultimate Slip ‘N Slide at the current location. We are in the process of determining next steps in order to complete production.”
Hopefully, things will go better at their new location and for the series that debut in August.
Even though NBC announced their 2021-2022 schedule almost two weeks ago, they did not reveal the fate of all of their shows. There were four shows, Debris, Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist, Good Girls, and Manifest, waiting to find out if they will be back next season.
I said were because today NBC cancelled Debris just days after the show’s, now series, finale, according to Variety.
I would tell you what it was about, but after watching a few episodes, I still have no idea. I guess I am not the only one, otherwise, it would have gotten a second season.
Hopefully, this bad news will be good news for the three shows I watch. I don’t want to lose any of them. Although Manifest did jump the ark, Noah’s Ark.
