#Girlfriends live-tweet takes over Twitter, as fans reminisce over William and Yvonne’s relationship, and the issues the show tackled that are playing out now

What’s ironic is that UPN has been off the air for over a decade, but the shows they aired live on. There are several cable networks that owe their audiences to the defunct channel. Definitely, those “Girlfriends” midday marathons rack up major ratings.

Tonight, a “Girlfriends” live tweet began and fans began discussing those William/Yvonne episodes. The character of William (Reggie Hayes) was the girls’ male friend, who offered hilarious commentary. In the early seasons, he and Yvonne (Cee Cee Michaela) almost wed.

The fans took to Twitter to dissect that storyline, crediting Yvonne for leaving William alone. After all, dude never even TRIED to introduce him to her mother, yet he always talked about his mother. Fans had this whole thing trending on social media.
