Girlfriends

Kay Mellor's characters are usually well formed, I find the main three characters in this series sketchy & lacking substance, which is probably due to poor casting. The titular "Girlfriends" are allegedly middle aged, with Miranda Richardson's character being the youngest of the group. I find it hard to believe this when both Zoe Wanamaker & Phyllis Logan's characters continually complain of hot flushes, these actresses are in their late & early 60's & due to the bizarre choice of wardrobe & hairstyles, look it! The sloppy casting make it hard to believe or indeed care about. Yes there are plenty of sub plots a la Mellor but it's not enough to make it "Too good to miss viewing."

The only thing really wrong with this show was that it got canceled after one year. The friendship bond between the 3 leads was tremendous - strong and believable. The twists in the last few episodes kept it interesting and funny. Really disappointed there is no 2nd season.

Wow this make my life feel so good so much drama love every bit of this please can we have more wife and i love it

If you are a woman of a "certain age" particularly (or not), you will enjoy this quirky series about three lifelong friends. They find themselves dealing with everyday life as well as comical situations that add lightness. It shows unbreakable bonds and loving connections among the three lifelong friends.

Nice to see some actresses my own age. Totally bizarre - loved it. When is the next season?
