  • I can’t wait. A definite must see!!

  • It’s kinda eerie how similar the ladies all look in this pic. That’s alot of talent. I might tivo it.

  • it is eerie but great since they play fam, though audra’s character married into the family, but yeah I AM WATCHING AND phylicia didn’t win an emmy, she lost to jane curtain and betty white, respectively, she DESERVED A WIN, CLAIR HUXTABLE IS THE GREATEST TV MOM EVER AND SHE’S A PHENOM OF AN ACTRESS!

  • My Tivo is set to record this :)

  • Damn i forgot…
    just got home from work
    and now it’s 9pm central time
    which is end time in chicago…

  • wait its still on…
    i didn’t know it would be three
    hours long…

  • I was too moved watching this. Great performances all around. Just wonderful. I hit every emotion, I swear I did. When Mama Younger broke down and cried, whew!! Had me crying like the Indian does when you pollute the earth with your trash. Yep that one tear just went down my cheek.

  • so moving

  • PUFFY DID A NICE JOB BUT THE WOMEN WERE REMARKABLE, ESPECIALLY MRS RASHAD, HONEY WHEN MAMA TOOK THE CRY TO THE WEEZING I WAS LIKE DAMN SHE’S GOOD. I KNOW I CRIED LIKE THAT BEFORE.

  • SHE DID THAT DAWN!!!!! THAT WOMAN CAN ACT!!!! I was like DANNNNG Phylicia!! Go head den!!!!

  • I was so disappointed in this movie…I thought it was going to be like the original with a modern twist…P.diddy was awful and I don’t know what the others were doing…this great story was not portray well at all…very disappointed…I went to bed maddd

  • It was fantastic! I loved Phylicia Rashad in her portrayal! I hope this makes it to DVD for purchase.

  • Over all I think the women were awesome and Phylicia Rashad had me in tears! It would have been so much better if Diddy didn’t suck so bad. Not to bad but, not even close to Sidney. Of all the talented actors in the world, they play too much!
