Mad women: Mae Whitman, Christina Hendricks, and Retta in Good Girls. Photo: NBC A promising mix of drama and black comedy, Good Girls arrives on NBC tonight with a Time’s Up pin affixed to its suburban mom sweater and a trio of female protagonists ready to reclaim their time, or at least the money they feel they’ve got coming to them.
