It got me through some serious situations
I lived in Houston for eight years and hated it. I always dreamed of moving to Los Angeles, and did not miss a show because it helped me envision myself there. That show has got me through some things, inspired me about my move, comforted me, and I am finally here. That sitcom, with all its warm characters, mellow music, lots of laughter, sometimes tears, and serious, in-depth topics is the best I have ever watched. A male version would be nice =) Guyfriends...
When driving on the Pasadena 110 at night, I look up to the lights and the building(s) where Joan's employer lawfirm 'Swedelson' is in and I think to myself, hey gals, I am here =)
The characters are the kind many can wish to have as friends, and I hope the sitcom continues someday. Many, many thanks to such wonderful cast and the production crew: Thank you, Kelsey Grammer, Tracy Ellis Ross, Golden Brooks, Persia White, Reggie Hayes, Jill Marie Jones, and Keesha Sharp. You have truly touched me!!! Hope to meet you...
Loving the Seventh Yet Missing an Element....
Not since the 90s sitcom "Living Single" have I been so drawn into the interesting, yet dramatic lives of African-American women. Mara Brock Akil did a great job in showcasing the diverse, funny & challenging lives of Joan, Lynn, Maya & Toni. Yet anyone who is a huge fan of the show knows the seventh season suffered a little with the absence of Jill Marie Jones' character, Toni. William Dent's love, Monica Brooks (Keesha Sharp, who was debuted in the role in Season 3) tries very hard to fill the void Toni's character left, as in this season, the three remaining girlfriends, Joan, Lynn & Maya learn more about her. I'm very disappointed Viacom/CBS hasn't invested a little more time producing behind the scenes extras for the DVDs of Seasons 4, 5 & 6. Even though the show is off the air, (and now Akil's newer show has suffered the ax from the CW, "The Game") I believe fans of "Girlfriends" would still like to see small clips of the cast either rehearsing lines, location shoots or the cast...

I love this show, and I am so excited that the seventh season is on its way to Amazon.com for me to purchase. I already own seasons 1-6 and I have watched them over and over. This is a wonderful show with an awesome cast. Girlfriends is truly one of my all-time favorites.
