Living Single, created by Yvette Lee Bowser, premiered on FOX in 1993 and featured an all-Black cast of funny, inspirational and upwardly mobile friends sharing laughs, love, and a Brooklyn brownstone. The immediate, and unexpected hit, starred Queen Latifah, Kim Coles, Erika Alexander, T.C. Carson, John Henton and Kim Fields.

It wasn’t just the blueprint for Friends, it was also the blueprint for Sex and the City, if not more so . Khadijah was a writer and so was Carrie. Max was a headstrong independent attorney, so was Miranda. Regine was fashionable, had a trendy career, and was always with a new man, so was Samantha. Synclaire was the hopeless romantic, ditzy one, and so was Charlotte. Living Single was also a show about four single females living in New York City, specifically Brooklyn. While Sex and the City was set in Manhattan. They even copied episodes from Living Single. Remember Season 1 episode 18, with the loud elderly couple getting busy? Well, Sex and the City copied that episode with its version Season 2 episode 14, when Samantha got too excited by her loud neighbors, only to find out that they were old. Sound familiar??? I’m surprised no one else caught on and wonder why they keeping only talking about Friends. Clearly, Sex and the City copied Living Single and need to give them sistas their flowers as well!

Some would say that Lavern and Shirley was the blueprint for living single and friends, you had two girlfriends who lived in an apartment and you have there male counterparts who live in the same apartment, sound familiar? All living single did was change the number of girlfriends from two to four and of course there ethnicity.

Never ceases to amaze me how when a show has a predominately POC cast, it's considered only for that race of audience. But the minute a show has a predominantly white cast, it's considered for all audiences, and is said to have a "broader reach". Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that they're intending to not only mainly cater to white audiences, but also to promote white supremacy, and cultural assimilation to whiteness; to endorse the mindset that even if you are not white, you should be striving and aspiring to be as close to it as possible. They act allergic to diversity because diversity doesn't promote white supremacy, and for them, white audiences and culture are the main ones that matter.

Fox really dropped the ball with Living Single and New York Undercover 😒. Both shows had tremendous success initially and kept people from all races tuned in and once the actors/actresses started asking for better treatment/pay all of a sudden Friends is created and the show Law & Order started receiving more backing/budget. Regardless of what they did to these amazing shows, the impact was left ❤❤❤❤.

Living Single was one of the BEST shows of the 90s PERIOT!! I was obsessed with the reruns as a kid. Looking back, it's so raunchy how Fox built their success off the backs of black shows like living single, Martin, New York undercover, etc. And then they just dropped them like they never did anything for them. That made me mad how they did T.C Carson (Kyle) because he spoke up for I'm sure things that should have been spoken up for. And I hated the way they ended living single because it wasn't even given a full season. It ended in January of 1998 with a sort of a dry ending that was disappointing. Nevertheless, Living Single was the muse that Friends built off of.

It's interesting to me that Friends became such an icon and Living Single isn't regarded in the same league. I watched Living Single in the 90s when I was a teenager, but I never did watch Friends; to this day I've never seen a full episode, just bits & pieces here & there. I'm neither black nor white, in case that's relevant. I'm Alaska Native and Filipino, and for me, I didn't want to sit through another show about a group of 20-somethings living together and operating in the 'big bad city'.

Back then they really didn’t believe in shows that was African American based so that’s why Living Single was not promoted properly! I believe they set the show up to fail at the end so they would have a reason to cancel it!

Thanks for this. I've been thinking about/remembering Living Single a lot recently after Kim Coles' run on Days of Our Lives. It was a fun show with a talented cast.

Not sure if this is a fun fact, but Idalis Léon was also a singer in the group Seduction, who were signed to A&M Records...

Just goes to show that just because something costs more doesn't mean it is better. I would rather have seen 10 seasons of Living Single with the original cast of 6 than 10 seasons of Friends, which I saw for the 1st time on reruns.

I’m white and I absolutely loved watching living single just because there’s a cast that is all black doesn’t mean that it’s not for white people. It’s for people and representation, but it was very much a human show and very funny.❤

Kyle was the Vet with the most headstrong because he’s a Scorpio. He had the best interest of the cast that producers didn’t.

Since I grew up watching it, living single in my book will always be my favorite over friends ❤❤. To this day I’ve never watched fiends. Such a shame that living single didn’t get the same recognition as friends at the time when LS was airing. The idea was stolen & used a platform to start friends.

Sorry, but along with Martin, Living Single was THE show in the 90s. Even growing up as a kid, I had to catch every episode. The characters were so well written and funny! Kyle was the brotha I aspired to be! I never seen Friends to this day.
