If you enjoyed the October 7 series premiere of Comedy Central’s silly new comedy series Secret Girlfriend, as did I, you’re probably gonna love the second installment (they don’t come with titles — just numbers) premiering on October 14.

Each episode consists of two vignette-type segments, each with its own subplot. During the premiere, we met the five main characters — one who’s never fully seen because he’s holding the video camera filming everything — in the first segment and then learned about a cool strip club with a tasty buffet in the second.

Comedy Central’s latest comedy, Secret Girlfriend, kicks off its six-episode first season on October 7 at 10:30pm ET.

Follow the jump to preview it in two clips: the uncensored, unapologetic Red Band Trailer and a handy 90-second sneak peek. Looks like typical “wacky” Comedy Central fare.

Fans of The CW’s Girlfriends, take note. The long-running sitcom canceled last February has a new home on television at the women-oriented cable network WE.
Beginning on Monday, October 6, the series will air weekdays from 12pm to 1pm EST. And to celebrate the addition of Girlfriends to the network’s lineup, WE plans to give viewers a little something extra on the big premiere day: a four-hour marathon later that night, starting at 6pm EST.
Very nice. Now I just hope the target audience is aware of what WE is and interested viewers get the network with their cable …read more

This episode is the series finale of Girlfriends.
The president of Dirty Girl Records informs LYNN, who’s lurking by her parking spot to spray paint over the space’s name sign, that her ploy of handing in substandard work won’t help her cause and get her released from her contract. The president has the right to release anything she turns in, so if the songs tank and bring down Lynn’s career, the company will just write the losses off.
Later, Lynn and MAYA drop by JOAN’s house, and Joan receives a letter from Aaron in the mail. …read more

Original Air Date: February 11, 2008
Series star Tracee Ellis Ross directed this episode, her first time in the director’s seat.
The episode opens with everyone gathered together for movie night. JOAN starts pestering MONICA about the gender of her baby in order to know what kind of gift to buy. Monica insists she doesn’t want to know because she wants to break the curse in her family. It started when her mother was sure she would be a boy before she was born, which caused their relationship to go downhill after she turned out to be a girl.

Industry publications are reporting it more or less all around: Monday night’s eighth-season finale for Girlfriends, “Stand and Deliver,” will do double duty as the show’s series finale.
Yes, you read that correctly, fans. Thanks to the writers strike, which is coming to an end too late for the girls, followers will not even get the courtesy and pleasure of a full final season.
Instead, it seems The CW has decided to cut the show loose after producing and airing just 13 episodes of a normal 22-episode season, the amount that were completed before writers left TV-show sets months ago to …read more

Tonight’s eighth-season finale for The CW’s Girlfriends, “Stand and Deliver,” (9:30pm EST) will include a special message aimed at teenagers: always use your seatbelt when driving.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, approximately 11.4 percent of black American and white American teenagers fail to wear seatbelts as recommended when either operating or riding in vehicles. Such statistics inspired Allstate Insurance Company to help Girlfriends’ showrunners deliver a message about the issue in the season finale.
The episode will include a story line in which Golden Brooks’ Maya Wilkes will discuss with her teenage son Jabari (guest star Kendre Berry) various …read more

The CW’s long-running sitcom Girlfriends has been on the air for an impressive eight years, and tonight marks the final two new episodes fans will see this season. If only the writers strike had been resolved a few weeks earlier…
In any case, the first of the two fresh installments, “What’s Black-A-Lackin’?” airs at 9pm EST, and it’s notable because series star Tracee Ellis Ross directed it. In fact, the episode is Ross’ directorial debut.
Variety conducted an interesting Q&A with Ross recently, which you can read to find out more about her as a person and an entertainer.

Original Air Date: February 4, 2008
After the opening vignette with JOAN having a steamy little daydream about the electronics installer, his nine-inch cable, and where he can put it, we move to MAYA’s house. Her new neighbor, a white woman married to a white man, stops by with an adopted black son named Aiden to ask who tends to Maya’s lawn. That would be Maya’s sixteen-year-old son Jabari, whom Maya is all too pleased to source out for hire after she learns the woman has adopted an American child, not one all the way from Africa, like entertainers …read more
