No! This wasn't about 30somethings. This was about older women in their 50s.

First Wives Club reboot is about 40somethings now (Jill Scott, Ryan Michelle Bathe, and Michelle Buteau star).

Peachtree is about 30somethings.

Thank you! Oh i read that wrong. I thought Peachtree was the reboot.

LMFAO

This streaming service will flop and BET is doing both these shows a disservice by not airing them on the actual channel. Does Viacom or whoever still own BET? It’d be smarter, yet still dumb to make it a general Viacom streaming service with MTV, VH1 (put all those golden age reality shows on there), Nickelodeon, Logo, TV Land, Paramount Network, and Comedy Central shows available there.

they're doing a streaming service but declined to save star? rude.

:( I hope Netflix saves it. I missed having something trashy to watch each week with good looking people in it.

i'm pretty sure i saw an article about it being dead after lee daniels tried shopping it around :/

This is too much. Just give me The Parkers and Girlfriends on Hulu, please.

I love Girlfriends and The Parkers. Though it's been interesting going back and watching The Parkers and how insanely problematic it is lol

You can watch Girlfriends (except for season 1) on the CW Seed website/app (for free). No Parkers, but I'm sure it'll be added eventually.
