Retta From “Good Girls” Blamed “One Person” In The Cast For Getting The Show Canceled

Published

on

“We were very close to a fifth season.”

A year later, I can admit that I’m still not over the cancelation of Good Girls.

The hour-long comedy-drama featured Christina Hendricks, Mae Whitman, and Retta as three suburban women who, after facing financial pressure, turned to crime to maintain their lifestyles. It ran for four hilarious seasons before being canceled last summer.

Well, it turns out that we were this close to having a fifth season.

While she did not name names, it was previously reported that the show was not renewed in part because of failed negotations with Manny Montana, who played crime boss Rio.

TVLine reported that Retta, Mae, and Christina had agreed to take a pay cut in order to do a fifth and final season, but production was ultimately “unable” to make it work, with one source citing “money and scheduling” conflicts with Manny.

Kelly Ripa wondered if they could have gotten rid of that person and replaced them, but Retta said it wasn’t an option. “It was a little too close to when [the creative team] would have to start and figure out story,” she explained.

And so, with that, Good Girls got canceled. So far, Manny hasn’t commented on any of this, but we’ll let you know if there’s an update!

These “Barbie” Cast Members Attended A Pride Parade On A Perfectly Pink Float

Barbie Cast Members Attend West Hollywood Pride

If there’s one place Barbie is loved, it’s at a pride parade.

On Sunday, West Hollywood held its annual Pride Parade, and it was a star-studded affair.

This included several honorees, like Melissa McCarthy who received the Ally Icon award.

Niecy Nash-Betts (on the right) and her wife Jessica Betts were named Trailblazer Icons.

Laith Ashley, who plays Taylor Swift’s love interest in the “Lavender Haze” music video, was honored with the Breakthrough Icon award.

Finally, RuPaul’s Drag Race was given the Drag Icon Award, and numerous queens who’ve competed on the show appeared on floats throughout the parade, including Rock M. Sakura and Gottmik.

Other celebrities in attendance included Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars Garcelle Beauvais and Sutton Stracke.

Selling Sunset alum Christine Quinn came to celebrate, too.

However, two of the most notable attendees were Barbie costars who adorned a perfectly electric pink float for the film.

Alexandra plays one of the many Barbies. Her tagline is, “This Barbie is a celebrated author.”

Meanwhile, Scott plays a Ken. His tagline is, “You guessed it. He’s a Ken.”

While they might have supporting roles in the film, they were front and center on the Barbie float, celebrating all things love. Of course, they both wore pink.

Alexandra was appropriately dressed in a pink two-piece look with color-coordinating earrings and shoes.

Scott opted for lighter shades of the film’s signature color but still wore a pink printed button-down and pink shorts.

If a Barbie float at a Pride parade isn’t reason enough to see the film when it comes out July 21, then I don’t know what is.

In the wise words of another gay icon Jennifer Coolidge in the film Single All the Way, “The gays just know how to do stuff.”

Happy Pride! Looking for more ways to get involved? Check out all of BuzzFeed’s posts celebrating Pride 2023.
