This was destined for canceled from day one. They should have simply called it "Highland Park" or another title that would not be interpreted as an attack on Christians. I know many people in the show's demographic who did not watch based on the title alone.
shareIronically, it's flattering in how it got the Religious Right wrong.
For example, in the finale Carlene correctly admonished Rev. Tudor that nobody understands The Revelation and that everyone alive would be dead by then anyhow. The Religious Right types I've met believe the opposite of both those statements.

As God is my witness, I thought Turkeys could fly.
They changed it from Good Christian Bitches to Good Christian Belles.
You should have watched...it was a funny show. Really cute.
There is always too much month and not enough money.
I disagree. Offending Christians is a huge selling point and that reason alone would be enough for me and many others to watch it. If it had a generic title, I wouldn't bother with the show at all as there are a hundred other shows out there with generic titles.
shareI don't think being offensive to christians was grounds for the show to have been cancelled. South Park offends practically everybody and it's not cancelled. I've watched two episodes of GCB as it just started screening here in Australia. I am offended BY the Christians. It's just ramming it down your throat at every turn. And of course they're all fake and phoney like real Christians are. I don't need to watch this documentary on christinsanity, I had a gut full of church as a young teen. I knew it was canceled before it screened here and having watched the second episode just now you can see why it would be canceled. It's just not very funny, nor clever, nor entertaining or engaging in any way. It is amazing how good Leslie Bibb looks and that's about the only thing the show had going for it. Annie Pott's is just a nightmare to behold, I really don't enjoy her at all in this and don't see her as being worthy of "high society".... The best two characters are Heather and Amanda. They're the only sane people in it. The title GCB is meaningless also. A much better name could have been "Prodigal Fox", or would that be Prodigal ABC ;) The name Carlene Cockburn sounds like she's a porn actress and she has a look like Jon Benet Ramsey back from the dead. I will watch the show to see what happens to Miss Vaughn but I don't mind it ending.
