“Good Christian Bitches” is all about Amanda Vaughn who returns to florida after being a “mean girl” in School. Amanda has changed the girl ways, but her old classmates dont understand the new her, just the old Amanda who they grew to hate. However, since it is this South, Carlene Cockburn, Gigi Stopper, Sharon Peacham, Cricket Caruth-Reilly and Heather Jones want to show theyve forgotten about the earlier, but it is clear theyve not.
As Amanda and the girl teenage children attempt to create a new life in their own new home, the old “friends” begin their lives and scheme as well.
Amanda and her 2 kids, Will (Colton Shires) as well as Laura (Lauran Irion), return to the estate of her overbearing mom, Gigi (Annie Potts) inside Dallas, where all of Amandas former senior high school classmates still remember your ex as queen of imply.
The grown-up GCBs have an abundance of reasons to make Amandas lifetime miserable. Carlene Cockburn (Kristin Chenoweth) has been tortured by Amanda within school. Amanda stole and betrothed Cricket Caruth-Reillys (Miriam Shor) partner. And Sharon Peacham (Jennifer Aspen) lost her chance for any major beauty pageant the queens after Amanda launched a new malicious rumor campaign in opposition to her.

But Amanda has changed a good deal in the 20 years since high school. Shes not only been sober for 1 . 5 years, shes turned several pages in her life and also value system. She is aghast when Gigi drags all to church, saying shes encouraged her kids to produce their own spiritual thinking, but the shows idea is that Amanda is much more “Christian” compared to the bitchy regular church attendees who want to make her life dismal. Amandas challenge is to have a job, maintain her distance from her mother and the “GCBs” and get the woman family back on its feet.
There are some funny lines occasionally, but overall, the show lacks satirical tooth. If youre going to make this happen kind of comedy, take a page by “Suburgatory” and pull out a few more stops. Grounding the characters way too deeply in whatever goes by for reality on TV doesnt invariably dampen their comedic potential, but in this scenario, that seems to really do the result.
