Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce Set for Three More Seasons

NEW YORK: Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce, which marked the first scripted original for Bravo, has been given a three-season pickup.

From Bravo Media and Universal Cable Productions, Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce is set to air on the network at least through season five. The show was created and executive produced by Marti Noxon and follows Abby McCarthy (Lisa Edelstein) as she navigates being single in her 40s with the help of her girlfriends. The announcement comes on the heels of Bravo greenlighting its third scripted series, My So Called Wife (working title).

“With our first foray into scripted, Bravo’s viewers fell in love with Abby and her close-knit group of friends experiencing the fabulous joys and deep disappointments of juggling dating, careers, family and relationships,” said Frances Berwick, the president of lifestyle networks at NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment. “We are all excited to see what’s next for Abby and her friends.”

“With Marti and Lisa leading our stellar writers and cast, GG2D is a show that captures an important slice of the zeitgeist. And with this remarkable three season pickup, it will be a show that audiences can discover and enjoy forever,” said Jeff Wachtel, CCO of NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment and president of Universal Cable Productions.
