The show ran from 1993 to 1997 and was a huge success. The show was about four single ladies living in New York City, and it quickly captured the attention of their viewers because of their comedy and catchy opening song.

More than two decades later, Latifah went on "Watch What Happens Next" with Andy Cohen and revealed that there may be a reboot of the show in the next couple of years, acknowledging that "Friends" was a "white version" of their show, revamped to fit other audiences.

What's Next for Queen Latifah?

The actress believes that this generation definitely needs to see "Living Single," as it is still relatable even years after its last airing date.

With reboots, performances, and more projects on her plate, Queen Latifah is definitely still hard at work in Hollywood.
