"Being able to merge the worlds of black-ish and Girlfriends was surreal for me -- and so much fun," Ross told the magazine.
"Girlfriends" ran for eight seasons from 2001-2008 and spawned a spin-off called "The Game."
The episode of "black-ish" featuring Brooks, White and Jones will air October 8. They play women in Bow's feminist group.
Since the conclusion of "Girlfriends," Brooks has appeared in the television miniseries "I am the Night," White recurred on "The Vampire Diaries" and Jones co-starred in "Ash vs Evil Dead."
Black-ish returns for its sixth season on September 24.
