Retta Explains Why She Doesn't See 'Good Girls' Returning After Shocking Cancellation: 'We Were Devastated'

Transcript

00:00So many people always talk about revivals and reboots and things like that. Do you think the

00:03show warrants a revival or a reboot? Um, well, you know, we did the, over COVID, we did, you know,

00:11the, um, Zoom episode. But I think, I, I mean, I'd like it. I know that, honestly, I feel like

00:20everybody would. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like Mike Schur has kind of thrown it around that, you know,

00:24people are always asking about it. So, you know, I don't want to be like, oh yeah, we're coming

00:29back. Yeah. Do you miss the character? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was fun to play. Yeah. Yeah.

00:39Of course. Yeah. You know, Michael Schur is creating a lot of new show. It's like a man

00:43on the inside and dig with Amy. Is there anything that you would want to appear on? Have any of

00:48those conversations happened at all? I would like to appear on anything. I've got two months

00:53downtime right now. I mean, we travel a lot for this show, so I'm gone like back and forth

00:58for about four months. That gives me eight other months. We'd love to appear on it. You

01:05know, what about good girls? People were so upset. You know, this was one of the most upsetting

01:10cancellations I think of all time. I mean, do you ever see a possibility for that? I'm sure

01:15you were just so disappointed in that as well. I mean, yeah, no, I, we were devastated, but I

01:21don't know. I don't see that coming back. That's a, that's an NBC thing, right? Yeah. If only,

01:26if only, yeah. Were you, is it still surprising to you that there weren't more seasons after such

01:32fan demand? I was, I mean, but I, I also don't know, you know, how any of that works, you know,

01:40how the metrics works, how they decide what's going to make it on air, what's not, what's coming back,

01:47what to put on because sometimes, you know, they won't have things that are kind of similar,

01:51compete on the same network. And I'm like, well then don't start a new show. It was just like

01:58the one that's already there. So I don't know how that works. Um, but yeah, we were, we were

02:04surprised. We, we really thought we would go a long time. And so it kind of threw us for a loop.
