An Official Ranking Of "Good Girls" Characters From Worst To Best

Is anyone really that good?

11) Leslie

shopyourtv.com

It sounds horrible but if anyone deserved to die, it was Leslie. He capitalized off of Rio's crimes and was never punished for it, stole from his innocent grandmother, essentially blackmailed a woman into marrying him and then emotionally abused her children, and was a RAPIST. He's trash all around.

10) Dean

popculture.com

Another trash man, but for different reasons. Dean never respected Beth or saw her as anything more than a housewife and mother. He refused to listen to her business ideas even when they were superior, never helped take care of his own children, and cheated on her multiple times then tried to blame her for his own behavior. And let's not forget when he literally FAKED HAVING CANCER. While his character has been showing some growth recently, he's still gross and unlikeable.

9) Greg

Greg is just a terrible husband (and person in general). He was willing to take away Annie's custody over their daughter largely due to her financial status, even though she was a loving and dedicated parent. He then pursued a relationship with her even when she repeatedly tried to break it off, cheating on his pregnant wife in the process (who seems to be closer to his own daughter than he is). Any time Greg comes on screen I have a sudden urge to take a shower.

8) Mary Pat

brit.co

Mary Pat is the kind of person who acts helpless and innocent one minute, then stabs you in the back the next. She voluntarily got involved in a life of crime by blackmailing Annie, Beth, and Ruby, raised her price even when she knew it was unreasonable, then started whining and freaking out when things took a turn for the worse (honestly, what did she expect?). She consistently relies on the main characters for help, but then has absolutely no problem double crossing them to save her own ass- you have to have pretty much no moral compass to ask someone to help you cover up a (justified) murder, and then sell them out the first chance you get. I can see her being a good person deep down... But it's really deep down.

7) Agent Turner

fanpop.com

Even though he's trying to solve drug cases and murders and put guilty people in jail, his good intentions are outweighed by his actions and all around annoying personality. He teams up with Leslie, even though he knows Leslie is an awful person. He repeatedly harasses Beth by showing up to her home unannounced and dropping subtle threats, which is definitely unprofessional behavior. And if that wasn't enough, he forced his way into a dinner invite at Ruby's house and threatened her husband. Instead of actually conducting proper investigations and gathering evidence, he relies on emotional manipulation and intimidation. No thank you.

6) Nancy

fanpop.com

In the beginning, Nancy was the epitome of a stereotypical suburban rich white woman- she was pretentious, made snide comments about Annie's financial status compared to hers, cared too much about her image and keeping up with trends, and generally thought she was better than everyone else. Over time, however, she's grown as a character and person. She connected with Annie, revealed her flaws and insecurities, and proved herself to be a great parent to Sadie (arguably a better parent than Greg). And nobody deserves to be cheated on, especially when they're pregnant.

5) Rio

ew.com

On one hand, Rio is a horrible person who has committed a countless number of crimes, including murder. On the other hand, he's extremely interesting and his scenes are always a delight to watch. He actually treats Beth like an equal, unlike Dean, and understands what her point of view as a female can bring to the table. Even though consistently threatens the group he never actually follows up on it, demonstrating that he does care for them to some extent. Compared to most of the men on this show he's really not that bad, even with all the drug and murder stuff.

4) Annie

variety.com

Annie's a dedicated mom who would jump off a cliff for her kid. Sometimes she starts drama, especially with her sister, but she's also fiercely loyal, protective, and caring; she even takes the time and energy to help out Leslie's grandmother, who Beth and Ruby don't give a second thought to. And she always brings a signature style of humor to every situation. However, she also repeatedly makes bad decisions (particularly in the romantic department), and doesn't know how to properly make up for them. She's also always the one to try and encourage the group to use violence, yet when it comes down to it she depends on Beth to do the actual work. She's a good person, but also someone who really needs to mature and learn.

3) Ruby

giphy.com

Ruby's entire reason for getting involved in crime was saving the life of her child. There are few better reasons for robbing a grocery store than that. She's always the voice of reason and the one trying to discourage the other two women from doing something illegal. Not to mention she has to deal with being in the middle of sister squabbles. However, she's also the one most likely to sell out the rest of the group to save herself. To be fair, it's to save her family too, but that doesn't change the fact that selling out her friends would destroy two other families in the process. Plus, compared to the other two, her character just isn't as exciting and could benefit from some Donna Meagle flair and more interesting plot-lines that aren't dependent on her husband.

2) Beth

brit.co

If the acronym IDGAF had a symbol, it would be Beth's face. She's transformed from a submissive woman who never stood up for herself and let her husband walk all over her to a strong, powerful woman willing to stand up to not only her husband, but a dangerous drug dealer with a gun. She's the brains of the operation and the leader of the group when it comes to crime, but she also understands limits and knows what lines not to cross. She's always taking care of everyone, whether it be her sister and best friend, or her children and useless husband. But of course, none of that changes the fact that what she's doing is... Really illegal.

1) Stan

fanpop.com

Everyone needs a man like Stan in their life. Stan is the only male character on the show that isn't abusive in some way. He's a loving husband and father who will do anything for his family, even if it goes against what he wants. He's kind, funny, and most importantly, forgiving. Stan is a gem and if anything happened to him I would personally enlist Rio and his gang to track down whoever hurt him and make them pay.
