    I really want Derwin not to throw Drew up her Mel’s face anymore! he was the one that f*ucked up and can’t take that she slept with Trey! I wish they would get back together already. Girlfriends is in its last days which is a shame because I really loved that show. Badu’s planet must be really nice gotta love her and Keisha

    THE GAME IS THE ISH!!!! I love love love this show, especially the first episode when she took me back to my “woman scorned” days…..oh i feel the show so much

    Keyshia’s show is the stuff too….for all those who said she was so ghetto, I think that she’s doing extremely well considering the circumstances of her upbringing…..so many people would’ve used that as an excuse to become a Superhead or Carmen Bryan

  11. Keyshia I used to think you was ghetto……….baby you ain’t ghetto your
    mama and sister now them are some ghetto ass hoes.

    damn im late… i didnt even know keyisha had a show…. wow… lmao…. (still not sure if id watch tho)….

    hmmmm….. THE GAME is my SHIT!!!!!!!!!!…. it’s soooo addicting..
    Mel and Derwin got mad issues…. I think the time apart will do them both some good…

    They both had hectic lives and both of them struggled to make time for the other….

    I feel Mel’s PAIN… I am a first year Med School student…. and it is definitely not an EASY thing…. Derwin is soooo sweet and cute tho… Even though he cheated, I honestly feel he desearves a second chance

    The Game is a great show and to think I thought it sucked when it first premiered. Girlfriends has changed too much and not for the better. I missed the latest episode of Keyshia’s show because Tueday it’s all about Nip Tuck.

    I love all of these shows! The Game is definitely on point and Keyshia gets mad props for letting us in on her personal life. I hope people learn and get inspiration from it. And the album is FIRE! Vocally Keyshia is a beast, top that Beyonce and Rihanna. I still like Girlfriends and I’m opposite from the Toni departure. I hated Toni’s character, she was vain and shallow for really no reason, really glad she left! For Joan’s man, they had to cut him out because he got another role on a T.V. show so thats why they threw him in Iraq. Still love all the shows though, but I do feel Girlfriends is coming to an end, but the great thing is it has withstood for a long time.

    Hands down I LOVE THE GAME, and girlfriends…the subjects are real and relatable! I love how on the game the writers are keeping it real by having Melanie react the way she is cause its real, we women get emotional and we can react to un familiar situations and lose ourselves. I really hope joan after all this she gets married! if she doesnt thats wack! Keyshia Cole’s show im really feeling …u cant get any more honest or real then that!

    The Game is the ishhh.

    Girlfriends is cool…but, the chick that plays Lynn isn’t looking healthy anymore…does she have some kind of sickness?

    Keyshia is the iiishhh. Yes, she’s ghetto, but she is also a smart paid business women. Some of you are more ghetto than she is…fronting on here like all of you are sophisticated and classy,lol. Shes changing though but its not going to be easy, especially having the life she had. Luv ya Keyshia, your album is fire…I just got a single that didn’t make it on your album and its hot

    Girlfriends INDEED sucks since Toni left.. it just doesnt have that flavor anymore…hopefully this is their last season..lol they been helplessly hanging on long enuff

    The Game is my show.. Team Melanie as well.. Tasha is hilarious.. I like Kelly too but she gets on my nerves sometimes..lol

    Keyshia’s show is the business for real.. love it since last season.. I think she has come a very long way.. giving her upbringing ..she deserves everything that she has bust her ass to work for.. while family is everything I think her mother and her sister is getting a free ride in a sense.. then have the nerve to complain about Keyshia’s ONLY rule of the house.. her sister is out of control for real.. then has the nerve 2 be 6wks preggers in the next eppy..wheww.. she betta be thanking God every night for Keyshia.. but her show is indeed a good look..

    Girlfriends has gotten a little boring but it’s for the grown, so I watch… but mainly to peep Joan’s fashion sense. Excited to see my girl E.Badu on the show tho. This ep should be funny. I wish Lynn would take them braids out her head. They’ve all gotten to comfortable and instead of being “characters” they’re being themselves it seems and I’m like, “It’s a tv show, dammit! Play your part! You can be yourself AFTER they say “CUT!”.”

    Luv Keyshia’s show cause I like her and didn’t think I would. Cool to see ppl watch and support her show.

    For some reason, last season even, I had a feeling Dionne and Melanie would be come “friends”- so to speak. It should be interesting with them two living together now.

    Girlfriends has kinda lost its luster, it used to be funny. Now its just boring.

    Keyshia’s show is really good. Her sister and mom is full of drama.

    The Game is def one of my favorite tv shows right now. Can’t wait to see how things unfold.

  38. i love alll these shows even thought i keep forgetting to watch Keisha’s show. But last session was bangin!

    I recetly retrieved back to Girlfriends. Some of yall saying it aint the same without Toni, no its not, it now a more serious series which i love. I think its better, she didnt ‘make’ the show. I am glad i started watching it again,iam just pissed i didn’t start earlier.

    Erykah can have on the most ridiculous shit on but still look bad. Always love her!!!

    I love the Game too. It started off slow at first and i stopped watching it, but i caught the last like 3 episodes and now i wont dare to miss and episode now!! and its actually really funny

    Keyshia’s show is real – and they are dealing with real life hard issues. This past week with her Mother and Neffi speaking out – was raw. But just like they are trying to come up out of their madness, they are out there trying to bring some other losts sisters up too.

    Real recognizes real – and so many people are dealing with their own family struggles, that’s why they can relate. #1 in BET series history and #3 overall…. that’s big for her.

    Keyshia is doing it big – and can’t be slept on. The new CD is blazing and she is growing as an artist and and young woman. Like she said, she’ll be alright, ’cause GOD has her back.

    This is the last season of Girlfriends, I’m sad. I know it hasnt been the same since Jill Marie, but I am still loving this show or dedicated. The last few episodes have sucked but okay its not like its horrible.

    I do love the fact that the Game has stepped up its Game, this season is hot!!! Who ever is writing for the Game needs to cowrite for Girlfriends.

    Keisha Cole, I have a new found respect for her. I thought she was just another chick from the hood trying to get on, but the show really showed me that she ia mature young lady trying to make her life better and the lives of her family. I still do not dig her music but I like her spirit.

    the one is back in the building now SHUT THE BACK DOOR!!!

    Girlfriends seems to be too scattered the past 2 seasons – maybe it’s Toni leaving– but they have too many story lines and not enough strong ones.

    Mya and Darnell pregnant and then lost the baby — BTW, what happened to Jabari? They could have at least written him off to college – they act like he never existed.

    Joan getting engaged and now Dude off to Iraq.

    William and Monica getting married – breaking up, back together – and now pregnant.

    And owning the restaurant – isn’t working. Joan needs to get back to the law firm and hire Mya since she lost her book deal – and call Toni and tell her to come back to Cali – since she hasn’t had work since she left the show.

    oooh nasty

    @ #49 agree ‘Girlfriends seems to be too scattered the past 2 seasons – maybe it’s Toni leaving– but they have too many story lines and not enough strong ones.’
    And may I add: those corny, lame jokes need to quick. New writers.

    On girlfriends-
    I dont believe it was Toni leaving that changed the show, I think it was more about them trying too hard to fill in where her character would have been normally placed. Its like all their personalties and quirks were upped 100%. Making it unbelievable and silly.

    Ive said this before & I’ll say it again LOVE THE GAME!!!!!!!!!

    I still love Girlfriends even though this season has started off boring as hell.
    The Game is my show!!! I thought it was funny from the pilot. I wasnt sure about them changing Derwin at first but it worked out. And….. I’m team Derwin. (running for cover)I loved that shirt he had on (melanie heart derwin)and the MJ move he did. He was too cute. Melanie pissed me off too many times. Its just tv like someone else said earlier. I want them to make up. Derwin is a cutie pie.

    And could someone please tell malik that the star QB should be in shape. Baby boy is damn near fat.

  57. I love “The Game”!!! I hate that Jason let his wife brother take the wrap for having drugs in the house that was foul.

    @ #31 Keyshia does look like Eva from that angle!

    Girlfriends need to suck it up and just bring back Toni. Give her whatever she wants because she worth it. The story line is so lame now. The only reason I still watch is because of William, Monica, Mya, and Darnell.

    I love The Game!! It’s getting better with each episode.

    Mel & Derwin do have issues and both are going about them wrong–Derwin was a real jerk ( a cutie pie jerk) to Mel last episode–he needs to remember he F’d up and ran up in Drew. But he was trying. He’s so damn fine, it would be hard to say no to him…lol!

    I love this seasons story line–Jason is wrong and spiraling out of control. He needs to fess up and realize he’s getting older. And Malik’s body looks just fine to me–lol!
    And I think Mel moving in with Dionne is a big mistake! Can’t wait to see what happens next!
