Grosse Pointe Garden Society No Longer Airs on Sunday! All About Its New Timeslot
The mystery drama announced a slight change to its Sunday night lineup.
Fridays just got a whole lot dirtier. After launching as a Sunday night soap, mystery drama Grosse Pointe Garden Society is getting a major schedule change. Here's when to tune in.
Grosse Pointe Garden Society moves to Fridays
Starting April 4, the murder mystery will air new episodes at 8/7c on Fridays. As always, you can catch up with the latest episodes when they start streaming the next day on Peacock.
Its former time slot at 10/9c on Sundays, following Suits LA, will now belong to Dateline NBC.
What's happening on Grosse Pointe Garden Society?
The series follows four very different friends in a well-to-do Michigan suburb who cross paths when they join a local gardening club. But they it turns into much more than a hobby, as they end up banding together to cover up a murder. Since audiences have only seen the aftermath in a series of flash-forwards, viewers still don't know who it is they buried — or who the actual murderer is.
The hit new drama stars Melissa Fumero, Aja Naomi King, Ben Rappaport, AnnaSophia Robb, Matthew Davis, Alexander Hodge, Nancy Travis, and Felix Wolfe.

In the upcoming April 4 episode, per a press release, "Alice (Robb) faces unexpected challenges at work. Brett (Rappaport) feels pressure launching his car restoration business. Birdie (Fumero) grows more involved in a tempting affair. In flash forwards, Catherine’s (King) marriage faces new hurdles when law enforcement seeks answers."
What do we know about Quiche?
In order to discuss the murder publicly without eavesdroppers realizing what they've done — and to keep the audience in the dark — the four accomplices refer to the body they buried as "Quiche." Suffice it to say this is a person no one soon missed, and who wears sneakers.
The secret-keeping was so important to the show that series creators Jenna Bans and Bill Krebs didn't even tell the cast until several episodes into filming. “As a cast, we just found out very recently that information [about who is killed], which of course we are sworn to secrecy about. But for a long time we did not know,” Rappaport told Us Weekly.

He added, “That’s part of what was so fun about the twists and turns. Just like the audience, they really kept us guessing. As an actor, that’s part of the reason I really enjoy doing TV. You play a character through a variety of different circumstances and journeys. I really enjoyed not knowing to be honest with you.”
