The delayed decision was due in part to NBCUniversal exploring a potential move to Peacock for the series. A deal didn’t come together, however, leading to the end for Grosse Pointe Garden Society.

The series stars AnnaSophia Robb, Melissa Fumero, Ben Rappaport and Aja Naomi King as four members of a garden club in the titular Detroit suburb whose lives become intertwined by scandal and a shared secret —a murder none of them wants to discuss. Matthew Davis, Alexander Hodge, Nancy Travis and Felix Wolfe also star.

Grosse Pointe Garden Society premiered in February, paired with Suits LA on NBC’s post-football Sunday night schedule. It underperformed there (as did the also canceled Suits LA), prompting a move to Friday nights in early April. Though the show’s audience grew some after the move, it averaged fewer than 2 million viewers for the season in Nielsen’s seven-day linear ratings, making it NBC’s least-watched regular series in that measure. Streaming figures for the show weren’t immediately available, but Grosse Pointe Garden Society did not make the list of 112 broadcast, cable and streaming series that averaged 5 million viewers or more during the 2024-25 season.

Bans and Krebs executive produced Grosse Pointe Garden Society with Casey Kyber.

With the cancellation of Grosse Pointe Garden Society, only one rookie scripted series from the recently concluded season, ABC’s Doctor Odyssey, remains in limbo. ABC has said it’s having conversations with co-creator and executive producer Ryan Murphy about a possible second season.

Deadline first reported the news.
