"GCB," says Sarah Rodman, is "'Desperate Housewives' – minus the murderous intrigue, plus plot elements of the Sandra Bullock film 'Hope Floats,' divided by the acidic quippage of 'Steel Magnolias,' and featuring multiplying Bible verses. Alas, it doesn't quite add up to the most entertaining possible result, given the promise of the splendid cast and creative minds involved."
