“Good Christian Bitches”: What I Thought

I know the proper title of the show that debuted on ABC to decent-but-not-boffo ratings on Sunday night is “GCB,” short for “Good Christian Belles,” but GCB sounds like a club drug, and on the series the substance of choice is alcohol, not speed. This program involves a blonde MILF (or, since she is widowed at the outset, a WILF) named Amanda, who returns to her native Dallas and finds high-school friends to be a nest of Botoxed, backstabbing bitches. The comedy is played so broad you could drive a wide-load through it, and if there was a Dallas cliche that wasn’t invoked I missed it. But the show is pretty amusing, and I’m going to watch it again next week.
