“Grosse Pointe Garden Society” has been canceled at NBC after just one season, Variety has learned.
Per the official logline, the show is said to follow “four members of a suburban garden club who find their lives intertwined by scandal, mischief and a shared secret – a murder no one wants to talk about. As dark truths begin to rot their lives under the surface, they struggle to remain as perfect as the flowers blooming in their garden above.”
The cast includes “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” alum Melissa Fumero as well as Aja Naomi King, Ben Rappaport, AnnaSophia Robb, Matthew Davis, Alexander Hodge, Nancy Travis, and Felix Wolfe. Jenna Bans and Bill Krebs created the series and served as co-showrunners and executive producers. Casey Kyber also executive produced. Universal Television was the studio.
The cancellation comes as little surprise, as the show opened to a muted response and low ratings when it premiered in February at the broadcaster. Originally airing on Sundays alongside fellow freshman show “Suits LA” (which was also canceled), NBC moved the show to Friday nights starting in April.
NBC has now officially canceled six shows from the 2024-2025 season. Along with “Grosse Pointe Garden Society” and “Suits LA,” the network has also axed the dramas “The Irrational” and “Found” as well as the comedies “Lopez vs. Lopez” and “Night Court.” NBC currently has two comedy pilots in contention for next season as well — the cheerleading comedy “Stumble” and an untitled comedy set at a Native American community center in Oakland.
