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 GIRLFRIENDS is a sophisticated comedy series that invites viewers into the lives of four professional African American women living in Los Angeles who are struggling with the weighty issues of life - men, love, money - and more men. As they search for happiness in all it's elusive forms, the four girlfriends rely on each other for support, reality checks, advice and for the laughter that everyone needs to make it in this crazy place we call the modern world. Review: Can't Wait To Get My Season 6 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 Review: DVD Works - DVD works and great episodes if you are a fan.

True Girlfriend at Heart
Love it! Love it! Love it! I am never disappointed with Girlfriends! I notice the Seasons are only 3 discs now, but still entertaining. My ONLY complaint it the amount of time between the Season DVD's releasing. Why does it take so long. Being stationed in Germany makes it difficult to keep up with all of my favorite shows and I would like to have ALL 8 seasons, I am waiting on 7 & 8. Come on with the come on!!! There is a little bit of each girlfriend in me. I totally relate and can't wait for the final 2 seasons to come out. HURRY UP!!!

"My Girlfriends
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!

Girlfriends season 6
I am a die hard girlfreinds fan. So naturally when they took the show off the air i was mad, i mean there are hardly any T.V. shows that are similar to it. Friends and sex and the city have some similarities but it doesn't compare. Girlfriends focuses on 4 african americam women and there triumphs and struggles to make it in today's society. I can relate to that because it's not easy but you do what you must. I watched every episode when it was in syndication and now that it's not i still have the option to watch every episode on DVD. Great DVD, i recommend to any and everyone over 13.

I Love Girlfriends.....Best Sitcom Ever!
I have been a fan of Girlfriends from Day one. The writing, the acting, and the plots are beyond phenomenal. Hands down! I heard season 7 and 8 are okay....but i'm proud of the production of this show. I will invest in all copies. I now own season 1-6 which i watch faithfully. I recommend watching this show from the beginning. Again the writing is brilliant and consistent.

Sad Writing for a Great Show!
I was so looking forward to watching Toni's last season...but it is very disappointing. It's obvious why her character was eliminated, not sure whose decision that was but in my opinion the entire show should have been cancelled at this point. The first five seasons Joan had been relentlessly criticized for not having more fun and for not really dating, she always put her eggs in one basket with some loser; this season she actually is having fun and because Toni has issues and needs her "friend", Joan is portrayed as inconsiderate and selfish -- what kind of crap is that? Maya isn't criticized for enjoying her life, and neither is Lynn...this was not good writing. Plus Jill Marie Jones' acting is missing something as well, her usual bitchy character takes herself & things much too seriously and gets offended much too quickly in the 6th season. It is obvious something is wrong with the mechanics that absorbs it on-screen and it goes downhill from here on out. Do yourself a favor -- do not purchase beyond season five...you'll be very disappointed.

Sitcom history
I tried to scoop up all of the seasons of Girlfriends because it was one of my favorite sitcoms that embodied sisterly love,support,breakups and forgiveness. These DVDs a just a token of a gone but not forgotten remembrance of a show that many have enjoyed, and can continue to with a new generation of women.
