What to Know

Critics Consensus

Naughty and not so nice with its salacious tour through the suburbs, Grosse Pointe Garden Society's twists aren't the sharpest shears in the shed but a game cast keeps the series watchable.

Saloni Gajjar AV Club Melissa Fumero and Aja Naomi King chew the scenery in NBC’s new drama. Grosse Pointe Garden Society is a breezy watch that joins a crop of new network TV shows that rely on nostalgia with a bit of a twist. Rated: B+ Mar 11, 2025 Full Review Angie Han The Hollywood Reporter It’s HBO’s Big Little Lies without the sharp satirical bite or the devastating emotionality, or ABC’s Desperate Housewives minus the cheeky self-aware humor, or NBC’s Good Girls sans the lively and immediate chemistry. Mar 5, 2025 Full Review Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times I found myself easily invested in their stories and hoping the conventional best for them: domestic tranquility, no jail time. Feb 25, 2025 Full Review Neely Swanson Beverly Hills Courier Totally lacking in deeper meaning and subtlety, this is definitely a relax and enjoy type of series. And enjoy it, I think you will. Jul 24, 2025 Full Review Anne Brodie What She Said Aims for sophistication but in the end its soap, baby, soap. Loads of plots and subplots whizzing around changing things, combined with the catty folks and their consciences and actions is FUN. Rated: 3/4 May 23, 2025 Full Review Lindsay Press Culturess The ensemble cast and the relationships between the main characters are where this series shines the brightest.

Lesa T Well, I'm sure everyone has read the overview. What I would like to add is how much I loved there suspense caused by the twists and of course the scramble. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/30/25 Full Review Cameron H A group of friends gets caught up in a scandalous murder. Nearly every character in this show had morality issues and there was a lot of infidelity and sexual stuff that made it hard to really care about anyone of the characters. Brett was the only likeable character. I liked the nonlinear storytelling, it was fresh and different, and I liked how they incorporated phrases like “present day” or “six month earlier” into things like a tattoo, a milk carton, or things like that. I will say the show keeps you hooked and wanting to watch more because you just want to know who the dead person is. The show does an excellent job at making you think it’s one person, then changing it the next episode. The season did start to feel a big dragged out at times and I’m glad I finally finished it, I don’t think it’s a show I personally would recommend. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/25/25 Full Review Matt F I am absolutely baffled by the positive ratings. I was frustrated, but intrigued through the first 11 episodes. But, without spoiling anything, everything from there forward was atrocious and embarrassing. Only Game of Thrones has fumbled the bag on the same level with an ending. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/20/25 Full Review Денис П I just can't understand people who gave it more than a star. I specifically registered here to rate it as bad as possible. I feel that script writers just spit in my face and not only with the ending. Yes, actors, views are good, acting is decent, but what the... is this plot? I STRONGLY recommend no one waste their time (TWELVE HOURS!!!) on this show, because characters has zero motivation, twists are on the lowest level and overall this is super terrible. Always some Gods from Machines, super weird coincidences any time script writers need one and A GODDAMN NEXT SEASON alert, so you will actually know nothing. I can admit that up to 11 ep I had a TINY believe that the main thing behind all those dances would be at least interesting, but it turns out to be SO STUPID, that it is just a total disrespect to people who will watch it. And the fun part is that plot twist happens twice, in last episode also, but for some reason characters become a bit smarter than the previous time. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Sabrina B I love this show! The suspense, the plot, the acting and the cast!!! Amazing Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Audience Member If you like desperate housewives, you will like this. Its addicting! I can't wait for another season!
