Product Description

The sixth season of Girlfriends continues the tumultuous storylines from the end of the previous year. The episodes focus on how complicated the relationships are not only between the women and the men in their lives, but also with each other. There is a lot of drama in this sitcom this season: Lynn (Persia White) falls for another woman, Toni (Jill Marie Jones) becomes embroiled in a messy child custody case, Maya (Golden Brooks) reunites with her ex-husband, and Joan (Tracee Ellis Ross) contemplates shutting down her failing restaurant to return to her career as an attorney. The end of the season sees the departure of one character and will set up the premise for a spinoff series called The Game, starring Tia Mowry (Sister, Sister) as Joan's med student cousin. All 21 episodes of Girlfriends--which originally aired during the 2005-2006 television season--are included on this three-disc DVD set. Executive produced by Kelsey Grammer (Frasier), the series moves at a quick pace and shows off the chemistry shared between the four leading women. Even as their characters are bickering, their genuine fondness for each other comes through. Ross in particular shows range and is as adept at playing the concerned mother hen as she is a coquette dating a much older man. But the most poignant episodes revolve around Toni and her husband Todd. After the birth of their daughter Morgan, they struggle as new parents trying to keep their marriage intact. The show does a nice job of depicting a mom who loves her child, but doesn't immediately feel the bond that a mother is supposed to have for her baby. And it depicts how fear of the unknown can ravage a relationship. In the first couple years, Girlfriends was a lighter show; the show's creative team took a risk by adding more drama (and melodrama) to the series. But it's a risk that works well here. --Jae-Ha Kim

I've loved this show ever since i first saw it, on BET, and I still can't believed it's ended. If you want to lean back and just relax while following the lives of four young, beautiful and veeerrry funny women, Girlfriends is really a must have!

Can't Wait To Get My Season 6 DVD!!!,
By Lucinde McAfee "Cinda" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Girlfriends (DVD)
I agree with Leon. I already have the DVD 1-5 Season Episodes. Can't wait until this Season 6 is delivered. I pre-ordered it. "Girlfriends" was the most underrated T.V. show. I used to watch it ALL the time. The women used to get themselves into some funny situations. I used to laugh my a** off until tears rolled down my cheeks. I was so sorry to see the show cancelled. What a shame. What a loss. Between Toni and her materialistic/self-centered/gold-digging self and "Joan's" mothering and old-fashioned/Victorian attitude about sex (she was the Ice Queen) and her "6-day rule". this show was so hilarious!!! Thank God for DVDs! I can now enjoy this show over and over again. I even adopted Maya's famous line "Oh, Hay-ell No" in my everyday conversations when I didn't agree on something someone said (Smile)Lucinda 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful

"My Girlfriends,
By D. Johnson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Girlfriends (DVD)
I love Girlfriends and I'm so excited that I almost have the complete series. I was reading a review from this website that stated the carjacking was included in this season; I was really upset about that until I recieved it and watched it! It is included its on the third disc, but u have to watch all the episodes to get that scene in. If you just choose a episode then it will cut that entire scene out! I just wanted future buyers to know that!!!!!!!!!!!!! Girlfriends is the Best show ever!

Loved GFs until Jill was cut/left the show. This is her last season and the DVD was amazing. Joan went from dud to diva to pompus ans self centered. Yes Joan not Toni. Please see Jill Marie's last performance1
