Is there a change in Grosse Pointe Garden Society’s release schedule? Details explored

NBC has decided to shift the timings of their thriller drama show, Grosse Pointe Garden Society. Instead of its scheduled Sunday time slot, the series will broadcast its episodes every Friday starting in April 2025. Although the network has not given any reasons for the move, some inferences could be made based on similar patterns seen in the past.

On March 18, 2025, Variety reported that Grosse Pointe Garden Society has not been doing well in terms of viewership. According to them, NBC has revealed that the rating for the pilot episode had grown to 1.21 in the adult demo 18-49. It attracted 6.6 million viewers across platforms since it premiered on February 23, 2025.

However, the publication noted that, according to the recent data available from Nielsen Live+7, episode 3 of Grosse Pointe Garden Society did not see much improvement in its ratings or viewership. While the number of viewers for the episode increased from around 1 million to 1.8 million, the ratings increased from around 0.13 to 0.2 within a week.

This means one possible reason for the show's move to a Friday schedule is its reported failure to meet expected performance figures.
