Hold – It’s been 25 years since Girlfriends Where did it be aired?!
Yes, you are reading this right. It is officially a whole quarter of the century since Girlfriends He first blessed our screens in 2000. This is 25 years of the excessive analysis of Joan, the shadow of Toni’s Glam, the reality of Maya “Oh Hell No”, the Boho Vibes of Lynn and William … Well, William.
Whether you grew up in it, you watched it on Netflix, or it was repeated in the bet, Girlfriends were the Moment for black women on television. It was not just a comedic series. It was a whole mood, a way of life, a fraternity. And now, the crew returns together for a big anniversary.
In a true way, the main cast was connected to the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, and the internet went crazy. And can we talk about the fact that none of them is age in the day? Black Do Not Crack is a devaluation.
Tracee Ellis Ross (also known as Joan Clayton), Persia White (Lynn), Golden Brooks (Maya), Jill Marie Jones (Toni), Reggie Hayes (William) and the genius behind everything, Mara Brock Akil. Everyone pulled out as they never left. And love? Still strong. You could feel that the day’s chemistry will pass through the photos.

And let’s not forget, Tracee even brought the gang for a super nostalgic trademark for its brand Pattern of pattern. Whew, the full circles!
Let’s be real: Girlfriends He was ahead of his time. He talked about healing, love, divorce, career depletion, motherhood and even coloring, all before it was fashionable to “wake up” on television.
The show was not just about being cute and funny (though they were both). Was about real lifesaid through a black female lens. No stereotypes. There are no scenarios. Just raw, analog, virtual narrative.
25 years later, and Girlfriends It still gives everything: style, essence, soul. The cast may have passed the separate ways, but when they meet, the magic is undeniable.
And if we do Get this movie? You just know we’ll watch, tweeting, crying and screaming on the screen, together. Just as always.
