Good Girls

Good Girls (NBC)

Three best friends decide to stop playing by the rules and take control of their lives -- together.

When sisters Beth and Annie and their best friend Ruby become fed up with playing by the rules and not getting the respect they deserve, they band together to take control of their lives -- by holding up a local grocery store. Beth's the perfect wife and mother, but her used-car-dealing, cheating husband has sent her family into financial ruin; Ruby is happily married to a policeman but can't afford the medical bills and experimental drugs to help her daughter; and Annie, a single mom, is caught in a nasty custody battle with her ex. In desperate need of money, the women plan the heist expecting to ease their financial burdens. But new to the game of crime, they get pulled in deeper than they ever imagined -- and the only way out of this will be together.

Good Girls (NBC, 2017) is an American crime comedy-drama series created by Jenna Bans. Struggling to make ends meet, three suburban housewives (Christina Hendricks, Retta, and Mae Whitman) decide to rob a supermarket, only to discover that they're in for more than they bargained.

In a suburban world where crime and comedy collide, Good Girls offers a fresh perspective on the lives of three seemingly ordinary women thrust into extraordinary circumstances. Beth (Christina Hendricks), Ruby (Retta), and Annie (Mae Whitman) navigate their way through a life of larceny and money laundering, all while juggling their responsibilities as mothers and friends. This dark comedy-drama has garnered critical acclaim, earning nominations for prestigious awards, including the Primetime Emmy Awards. As the show progresses, viewers are treated to a delicate balance of humor and suspense, keeping them engaged and invested in the characters' twisted escapades.

Unspeakable Times

If you think solving crimes is all about grim faces and dark alleys, think again. The funniest detective shows of all time seamlessly blend sleuthing with side-splitting humor, proving that a little laughter is indeed the best remedy—even when dealing with the murkiest of mysteries. These series have cracked the code on combining wit with whodunits, creating a beloved niche that captivates audiences who love a good puzzle as much as they appreciate a hearty chuckle.Take Castle, for instance, where a mystery novelist teams up with a New York City detective to solve crimes, serving up equal parts suspense and sass. Or Psych, which follows a pseudo-psychic detective and his best friend as they consult for the police, packed with pop culture references and rapid-fire banter. Both shows have set a high bar for humor in the detective genre, boasting clever writing and magnetic chemistry among their casts.Behind this list stands a team of TV aficionados who've sifted through episodes and seasons to spotlight the cream of the crop. Once they had their picks, it was up to the fans—those devoted watchers—to have their say. Their votes have shaped this ultimate roundup, celebrating the shows that masterfully mix mystery with mirth.
