No they are gonna ruin it. Let it be a great memory.

That reboot shouldn't have happened. I hate what they did to Miranda's character.

@@chaosspy6723 If Mara Brock writes it, i think it could be good. They'd need to have writers that are the same age as the cast... writers in their late 40s and early 50's, so it's not millennials writing Gen X stories. Let a woman actually in menopause write about menopause ya know

A movie aleast

If they can bring The Game back twice..anything possible lol

Agreed!

Yes! The whole female cast was all beautiful!

@@kahvinetic yes

and the fact that jill and persia toni and lynn were not supposed to be the characters

I wouldn’t say legendary show but you are spot on about the casting. Really enjoyed the cast, the writing was meh most of the time. The cast elevated the material for sure.

Lynn is married to a red head whyteboy, who cares about her?

So basically you're a freeloader too. 😂😂

@luv2live_ did you get a masters in something you’ll be able to find a good job in?

@Mow13. I watched that show a lot back n the day I didn't care that much for her either. I remember watching the episode where it featured rapper Common and her first husband. His character was artistic, disciplined, and celibate and she wanted to try n break him but couldn't so they ended up breaking up. Lyn was nothing but a Wh**(rhymes with door). Even character Tony Childs called her that. Lynn had all the time for sexual activities but didn't have time to find a stable job.

Just the aimless millennials.

FACTS

Exactly

I think they both have the same genetic makeup as well... 🤔

I'm sure she's probably heard that many times before.

*They definitely do have the same aura* They could be sisters easily. Both have that "IT"factor.

wow how far society has fallen smh

I agree! Such a great observation. I think it’s refreshing to see a black woman doing well that is not an over achiever in the conventional way. White women are portrayed in all characters and forms, but we don’t have the same space for it. for the most part black women’s character portrayals are on opposite sides of the Spectrum. Always strong and put together, or on the street. I’m more like Lynn and I appreciated her character very much.

Cree Summer (Freddie) on "A Different World" played that part first.

🙃, Thank We Dnt when we do😉

Every last character in "Girlfriends" played the role of a hoe (sleeping around with more than one man) at one time or another. It's sad so many sistas look up to a show that taught u its ok to be hoe when in fact its not ok at all. All those characters in the show could not keep a man or husband and all 4 characters had episodes where they were cheating on their husband/partner at one time or another. Is that what u sistas really look up to and admire? Girlfriends was bad for black women the same way gangsta rap is bad for black men. They both send horrible negative messages and encourage a lifestyles that brings pain and instability.

I loved me some Toni

I didn't like Toni. Not because of her acting, but the personality of the character had a trigger type effect on me. Her shallow personality, style and facial expressions reminded me too much of a former friend that I fell out with. They could pass for sisters. We had almost the same relationship that she and Joan had (childhood friends, growing into young adulthood together, me constantly overlooking the bs she nonchalantly did to me while she pretended to remain oblivious as to the bs she did, and then me finally cutting her out of my life and telling mutual friends not to invite me places if they also invited her. But minus the rekindling). I was even working at a law firm at the time of falling out, lol! But I guess that was the aim of the show - to portray the common trials and tribulations that young adult female friends go through in a big city. Something that the viewers could relate to. They did well! Awesome show though. I often watch reruns when I need some nostalgia

Was MYA to black for🤔🤔🤔

Me too.

I couldn't stand Toni but damn was she gorgeous

He's was recently on Abbott Elementary

I enjoyed seeing him on Abbott Elementary

@william smith yeah watch this clip of him 9years ago. He said he tried to get a normal job but it was hard cos ppl would recognize him and take pictures so he stayed with his sister I think. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hdWhhdCGtte9qpc.html

He’s made a few cameo scenes on Abbott Elementary. I enjoyed seeing him on the show but he looks like he’s gone through it though.

@@precioustoya724 yup he has and I’m happy for him

Not quite ..The Game was the spinoff that ran for almost 10 years directly after Girlfriends ended..

Pretty much garbage

"No substance" shows...them "housewives shows" that is.

Those shows always existed. Real world, bgc, girls gone wild, etc

@@Chloeeezyyy Shhh, you're ruining the tired argument people use to hate on modern times.

so you've never seen living single

@@MultiGemgirl I have watched living single all my life and none of the details I mentioned in my comment was on living single

@@MultiGemgirl they weren't focused on fashion the only designers mentioned were Liz Claiborne and Donna Karen not high end like girlfriends

@@vjo2529 Hermés crocodile Kelly birkin bag

Same here!!! 🙌🏿

Toni's character was a hoot!!! She put the B in bougie!

@@Lisa_Lisa312 right!?!? Love her!

As needy, self-sabotaging, and anal Joan was she was still a hoot!

I definitely think it did too, im surprised they made it to 2 seasons after her leaving.

Toni was the perfect example of wanting to forget where you came from. That drive helped make her a success yet that scared child lurked within.

Hey how did you feel about that spin-off BET The game?

@@IslamIslam-vj5fz its really good no lie they continued with most of the original cast and progressed to modern day issues and still talking about the game

@@cew2379 I beg to differ sir.

@@IslamIslam-vj5fz respect I just saw the whole season and I had to realize this show was progressing from the original game. People retire manage and do more but still have to worry about the repercussions of being successful and black but as well the double standards of working in that sports field and living with the injuries and difficulty of that but that what I received from it.

@@jarianwilliams2134 Hints why I didn’t mention them. Obviously my least favorites on the show. Joan at times could be too over-hyper and stressful to watch and Toni was self absorbed. Both gave off good examples of accomplished women though. But just not my faves

SistaTruth I had the biggest crush on Lynn besides Toni like I just admired how free and down to earth Lynn was

I love Maya!

@@jarianwilliams2134 Joan was good too

Toni was funny too. She was such a clown. And Joan was psychotic. Lynn was my least favorite.

Not notice what? She is clearly bi racial and hollywood has had tons of mixed race women. Dorothy Dandridge, Lisa Bonet, Halle Berry, and Lena Horn, just to name a few. Its their preference

@@jarvisaddison8560 the parents in tv shows were cast as black only while the character was clearly biracial. Lynn was ahead of her time.

You do know black folks with 2 black parents look like Persia?

Even the person narrating the video is using "Black" and "biracial" interchangeably, which is the exact issue at hand.

@@WhoCares3001 And when you speak on it, they swear we're part of the problem

Me too

Exactly! I loved the show as a kid but when I rewatched it as an adult , it was sooooo much better

You have no idea…. I watched the show at different stages in life…. always enjoyed it, but I’m almost 30 now and *woooooow* do I understand EVERY joke, comment, emotion, storyline, etc.! 😅

I'll have to go back and watch it. I didn't get into it at first but now I'm intrigued

She was my favorite when I was watching as a child

@@seekinghimdaily92crazy i feel the exact same way!!

What would you call Tracy Ross, more of Blk woman than her! You sound confused about the diversity of Blk women, even those who may have one parent of different ethnicity that may not be of direct African descent.

Well ... I get what @ angel is saying. Unfortunately, alot of times how a person looks phenotypically can have a strong influence on how we view them racially or even cultural. It is unfortunate that our skin color and hair. Can cause us to forget that . This person over here to is Bi racial to.

@@bounceenergydrink then tell Tracy to play a white woman, since she's equally white. Please stop using massa and his one drop rule, and use science instead

@@KhaosDancer they really won’t let that racist rule go. I wonder why?

@@ladybug3380 mental illness, low self esteem or blatant stupidity

I wonder why he hasn't stepped up to finish the show.

@@MK-hh1vo It's not his call. A network needs to pick it up. He's not going to pour millions into it by himself just to put it on KZfaq.

Toni could never Maya's son's name right lmaoo

@@Dablkwid0w2008 Your right LoL 😂 but what I loved about the show is that it showed that women could be friends instead of being 2faced & jealous of each other they had their difference with each other but you can tell they really loved each other ♥️

😅😂🤣😆 facts It's So weird back then because most black men would not watch the show because of the name alone. When I became around 37 years old and rediscovered that show, that and BET The Game where my two favorite pastime sitcoms.

@@IslamIslam-vj5fz I watched about the 3rd season in and started from there but watched the past episodes via syndication (it was 2004). I didn't care what others thought. I even knew Tracee Ellis Ross from Lyricist Lounge show on MTV back in 1999-2000! 😊

@@Shin-Blade lol hey bro I was 20 years old back then so I couldn't be bumping ATL dirty South music with my homeboys one day and then going to watch girlfriends later on 😅😂... But that's just stuff that all young people have to go through, hell but now I bump beyoncé riding in my car don't give a damn who's looking or who cares.

@@IslamIslam-vj5fz Oh, I know the stigma well 20 years ago and I still cared less about what people thought. It was a Black female lead cast and I was all for it since it was rare to have programming like that. I knew homies watching Sex In The City and bumping whatever was popping then. Now we got "homebois" openly doing questionable things that our deceased homies turning over in their graves... 🤣

@@Shin-Blade 🤣😆😅😂 bro FACTS.

I watch a few episodes a week since its been on Netflix

@@mindyourmess4386 it's such a timeless show imo

Right! We deserve to see Joan getting married to Aaron!

Bloop! You spilling tea!

Here we go🙄

she's not passable at all but go off

also Maxine on Living Single was a freeloader and it worked and she was beautifully highly melanated but again, go off

😴😴😴

Very Beautiful woman.

And the economic meltdown in 2008 led to fewer episodes a season and so many new shows were reality tv shows

Most of these reboots are flops are bad and majority end up flopping. A revival (continuation and ending) is what people want.

I used to always watch it bc they were all so fine.

@@DogofRaw same

If you couldn’t watch this because of your “manhood” that’s an issue in itself 🤦🏾‍♂️

@@Zenguy23 I grew up in a different time than what you have now. Most things you have now are already built and machine sustain them but I grew up in a Time where the two genders had very specific tasks and duties.

You bugging yo I watched that show every thrusday on ch 13 upn and all the reruns on BET when ever they air it💯

I miss the early 2000s when this aired I was in my early 20s life was good. Funny you mention that I still think about the song too it was catchy

Shoot Living Single should have lasted as long as Friends... since Friends was a rip-off of Living Single...

Jill Marie Jones leaving the previous season hurt the ratings, but then after the writers strike a lot of shows were cancelled and not brought back. _Girlfriends_ and _The Game_ both suffered from that but the Akils worked to get the latter picked up by BET. Neither show was promoted well to begin with before they were cancelled, and Mara complained about that throughout the 2000s and since. _Girlfriends_ was one of the highest-rated shows in Black households but was less than mid in White households.

Why

@@ertfgghhhh because true representation matters to a lot of people

@@stigmatamartyr4223 biracials have true representation. They are preferred and even two biracials had roles in a show about four black women. They are the face of the acceptable black woman.....

@@ertfgghhhh I love your Zipporah profile picture!

@@ertfgghhhh Persia didn’t want to live that *LIE* of being a black woman even though she is not.

Hello

None of these women are fully black.

@@kaoe145 really? Even "Maya" and "Toni"?

Most "light skin black women" are mulattos too.

They're all black

I remember persia from Buffy.

Maybe not a reboot but a two hour movie to give closure. With ALL the characters from the show in it. Joan, William, Maya, Darnell, Toni, Todd, Monica and Aaron. Come on Netflix make this happen

She was always on the vampire diaries as a witch, but she lost her ability to do magic, but was was turned vampire afterwards (wish she could have had more scenes as well as feed more

Fun fact: That was mentioned in the video….. 😂

And also married Klaus from " the originals"

facts

Damn for real I stopped watching after A certain point didn’t know lol

Proof that men and women can't be friends

True

What's ironic is that William was the reason heterosexual black males never watch that show but once we became older we realize William was an alpha black man.
