This was probably one of the best shows on television…Why not have a finale episode instead of ending the show so abruptly? I’d like to know. There should at least be a decent and logical reason the show couldn’t be aired on the CW anymore

Thats what they do to all black shows it’s nothing new. All we see on T.V. is FRIENDS,SEINFIELD,DESPERATE,HOUSEWIVES,etc….. “Shows with the cast thats mostly black probably doesn’t bring in a lot ratings so they cancel them. I’m not going lie some black shows stereotype us and showing us acting like complete idiots.Until we own networks and have a audience its always going to be this way.”

Are you kidding me? They cancel this wonderful show, but have nonsense like “Bullish and the geek, and that girlicious nonsense? What is wrong with these people. CW doesnt have any shows I like on it besides Girlfriends and the Game. I will not be the only one to leave that stupid channel alone!

I hope the creator of this show find another avenue to continue the great work. Girlfriends will be truly missed. I hope to see them soon on another network.

We didn’t even get to see William and Monica’s baby…Toni’s return,Maya and Darnell adopting a baby, Joans crazy but getting married, Lyn finding the love of her life ( would have been nice if it ended with her getting engaged to Kadeem Hardison)The show deserved a great ending. As loyal viewers, we deserved better and I will be writing to CW, for what it worth, to express my feelings.

I am really upset that cw decided to cancel girlfriends. it really seems as though they want to loose all african american viewers. we are to biggest group of consumers, but yet we always get the short end of the stick. Let’s put our money where our mouth is!!! Let BOYCOTT CW!!!!! Hitting them in their pocket will hurt more than anything.

My daughter and I have been watching that show since it’s conception. It was nice to be albe to discuss our intergenerational ideas about some of the issues the show dealt with early on; HIV, adultery, casual sex ect. We have missed “Toni” and were hoping she would return. We are disappointed that there no finale. Even the “Parkers” had a finale episode, what’s up with that? We will miss our Girl Friends.

I am terrible upset to hear they have cancelled the show. I was a faithful watcher even when Toni left the show. It is the only show that I make sure I am home for (Monday nights). I can’t believe that CW would not even have the decency to at least let the season play out. They have completely robbed these wonderful actors and writers of the priviledge of being the longest running sitcome. This show needs to picked up by another network and be permitted to finish their season. I mean dag, these actors received a phone call last Sunday (2/10) that it was cancelled. Does that make any sense??

Karen — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 13:49:10 +0000

This is so sad. If they did not want to renew the season the network should have at least given the fans the respect to give us a finale. Especially when we were forced not to watch new episodes as a result of the writing strike!! Is there any way another network can pick them up?

By: Dre

Dre — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 04:34:30 +0000

Girlfriends was a great show! Even though this last year was a little slow, it should be given a proper ending. I’ve watched this show from the beginning. I set my DVR to replay them. They were going to bring Toni back. This is so unfair and hurtful. It should be given a series finale, at least.

By: Tam

Tam — Sat, 16 Feb 2008 02:52:23 +0000

I don’t think its true. I just went to the CW website and it said original episodes of Girlfriends will be airing on Sundays, along w/the Game, Everybody Hates Chris and Girlicious.

But just in case this is true, I’m going to write down these numbers posted up top cause my a** will be steaming mad if its canceled w/out an ending!!!!!!!

By: Tam

Tam — Sat, 16 Feb 2008 01:07:06 +0000

We need to write letters like the fans of Jericho did to get the show back for a proper conclusion! This is some bullsh*t! Lets write!!!!!!

WTF!?!?! They could have at least let Joan get married! I’m so upset!

I’m soooo disappointed…I loved that show…I still watched even after Jill left..We are constantly losing great african american shows…what’s the problem?

Damn….and I was barely getting over the cancellation of Half & Half from 2 yrs ago. All I want to know is who did Mona choose? Now I’ll be wondering if Joan’s crazy ass ever got married!!!!!!

what? this show has been on THAT long? woooowwwww….

This is yet again a case of discrimination and industry sabotage. We must send letters to the CW and DEMAND a finale. I did it many years ago on behalf of “Living Single” and they responded with said finale, but had the nerve to air it on a time that most fans missed. i am still demanding that they release all seasons of that show! I am not surprised by this continuous lack of respect for shows that reflect a well-rounded and uplifting side of the Black woman. In a word, this is classic racism. Do something, send a letter, otherwise, it will happen again. Go to the CW website, and get the address.

Toni claims she left to pursue a movie career which I don’t believe. Her acting career has not taken off yet and it’s been two or three years since she left. The producers have been trying to get her back, but up until now she has not returned for whatever reason.

By: Cody

Cody — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 17:29:19 +0000

I think I watched one episode after Toni Child’s left. When Toni left, the show DIED for me. Not sure why she left, but they should of done everything to keep her. Oh well.

why did jill leave in the first place?

I am truely upset because that show was my drug. I would like it if they brought back Toni. We need to write people who can change this. Maybe TV Land will take the show and BET.

By: DJ

DJ — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 03:02:13 +0000

I am absolutely devastated. I admit that the show changed after Toni left but it was still one of my favorites. It is foul to cut it off like that and not to give us dedicated fans a proper closing!!!!

By: TJ

TJ — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 02:23:35 +0000

Yeah when Jill left, I left. It just didn’t seem right. But something aint right for only a few shows to make it that long. It’s a bit disrepsectful to cancel a series without a proper finale, it’s like saying you (everyone involved in creating & viewers) aren’t worth it. Maybe it’s me? Anyway they should be proud of 8 years.

i’ve watched one episode since they got rid of the Toni Childs character.. she was a huge asset to the show.. i’m surprised it lasted this long without her.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS SO SAD! OMG! I LIVE FOR GIRLFRIENDS. =( WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY??????????????? THIS IS SO NOT FAIR.

By: SAKETA

SAKETA — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 01:36:28 +0000

I have to agree with some of the other people’s comments. When Jill left the show, it just wasn’t the same. Still, where else are modern black women going to find a show that represents sisters in such a way? Young, black, intelligent, career oriented, sometimes single, and in and out of love. It was the black Sex in the City. The black Cashmere Mafia, so, to me, the show will be greatly missed. I love you B SCOTT!! Double kisses! MUAH! MUAH!

You are so SPLENDIFEROUS!

i used to be a Girlfriend junkie, never missed an episode but after a while the show wasn’t my top priority anymore (yes priorty)! like #21-i just stopped lookin at it.

Honestly the show was getting tired and I barely caught the episodes of the past two seasons. I felt the same way about the Cosby Show and other shows. I would like to see a proper finale though, it’s only right for the fans who stuck with them.

By: Chance

Chance — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 23:41:11 +0000

Whatever the issue was they still deserved the respect of a season finale. That was a slap in the face to just cancel them like that. Black actors get NO respect! CW better make this right or I will block them permanently from every TV in my house.

I want answers!
&
…a season finale.

By: Diva

Diva — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 23:38:59 +0000

Now that is just not right! It’s bad enough we don’t have enough black women on t.v. pertraying a positive representation. I will truly miss this show!

I already sent an email to CW’s feedback email about this. It would be different if this wasn’t a show that got off the ground, but after 8 years, the cast and the viewers deserve the respect of a finale. They already left us hanging with Half & Half when they didn’t bother to bring that show to CW, and left us with a cliffhanger, but then not to even give us THAT much? That is SO foul!

After Jill left the show sucked. I’m glad it’s gone. It seemed like the episodes had no plot.

From TVGuide.com

Girlfriends
Two pre-strike episodes remain. No additional episodes expected, although a special one-hour series finale is being discussed.

By: Bird

Bird — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 22:32:04 +0000

I didn’t see the show surviving the strike. I really didn’t. Still I have not gotten any official word on this yet. I have only seen it on two blogs neither of which site their sources for the info.

keke — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 21:54:36 +0000

This is so disrespectful,I get so tired of these networks doing “urban” shows like this, they did the same thing to Living Single and Half and Half, this is ridiculous at least give them the opportunity to wrap the series up. GEEZ!

I would like to see the show have a finale. I did lose interest in the show. But I did watch. If they get rid of “The Game”…Im gonna be upset

By: BabyBrown

BabyBrown — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 21:36:33 +0000

i mean DAMN AT LEAST GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO WRAP IT UP AND BRING JILL FOR ONE MORE EPISODE!!! but when Jill left i did stop watching because she was my favorite girlfriend, but the years they were on tv and that legacy CAN THEY GET A SERIES FINALE, DON’T ‘WAYANS BROS.’ them, shit!
