As an avid fan of Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce, I couldn’t be more pleased to bring you the fantastic news that Bravo Media is giving the show a second season, comprised of 13 episodes. As I said in my review of the series premiere, “GG2D is full of sharp, witty dialogue, great acting, is funny when it needs to be, and dramatic when necessary. It’s also sexy, intelligent, and dark. GG2D is the complete package; you’ll be missing out on something special if you don’t have this new dramedy on your list of appointment TV.” Looks like I was right!
