Tracee Ellis Ross discusses industry oversight of ‘Girlfriends’
Actress Tracee Ellis Ross recently discussed the legacy of the sitcom ‘Girlfriends’ during an appearance on the ‘What Now? With Trevor Noah’ podcast. Ross expressed that the series, which aired for eight seasons on UPN and The CW, was overlooked by the television industry during its original run.
Ross highlighted several ways the show lacked industry recognition, including a lack of invitations to promote the series on primetime talk shows and a scarcity of major award nominations. Over its 172-episode run, the series received only one Emmy nomination, specifically for ‘Outstanding Cinematography for a Multi-Camera Series.’
