    Honestly the last few years I've been terrified of aging.. I started watching Golden Girls reruns in order and noticed I no longer fear getting older. They are an inspiration that you can still live your best life & have great fun no matter what age. Now I just feel lucky for having 2 really close friends that I've known since High school. We hang out at least once a week & do crafts or go hiking or out to museums/shows/movies/mini vacations.. We joke that someday we'll be the Golden Guys! Especially since my mom is my best friend & all my friends seek her out for advice or to eat one of her amazing home cooked meals. So the 4 of us are well on our way to being Golden Guys.

    When Blanche says: "You're my family, and you make me happy to be alive," it really set the tone of the entire series perfectly. THAT was exactly what made this show so wonderful. Shows, particularly with women, are often about hunting for a man, but on Golden Girls, the friendships were the most important relationship.

    • @amm6569
      @amm6569 2 роки тому +1

    • @bullmoose6253
      @bullmoose6253 2 дні тому +1

      Do you have first hand personal knowledge that might add gravitas to your otherwise uninformed conjecture? Because there’s a rather recent interview with CNN, recorded not long before Betty White’s passing, where she confirms the rumors that Bea long held an inexplicable grudge against Ms. White. Which seems to consistent with stories from previous co-stars & directors, her short-lived ABC sitcom AMANDA’S PLACE being an outsized glaring example. But I admittedly those were old interviews for which I possess not the links. So it’s fair to say those rumors are also irresponsibly based on hearsay, but much less so since the always-classy Betty herself shared that bit of news.

    I had the privilege of meeting Beatrice Arthur twice through letters and and later spent time alone with Bea during her Broadway show period one evening in her dressing room. It is still surreal to me. We shared a very emotional moment together that will always be a part of me. Rue wrote to me and she was incredibly open about her life, illness and career. You can't imagine how blessed I feel to know them in this way. I even own the lobster-shaped Jell-O mold that is seen in their TV kitchen!

    I love the golden girls especially Bea ive been watching since I was 11 and now at 31 I still love it and the great thing about this show is that no matter how many times you watch the episodes they never get old and they are still funny they were all absolutely perfect for this show

      Same for me. I started watching it about a year or 2 ago as well. And i fell in love with it. It's funny, good writing, and the ladies did a great job playing the characters. They covered topics that were not talked about at that time, and said things that many sitcoms today won't even say. I'm surprised they got away with it. The show stands the test of time. Funny even today, and even more popular crossing over different generations.

    The producers were worried about Rue and Beatrice having had worked together in Maude, 8 years earlier, no one brings up the fact that Betty and Rue hand been in Mama's Family a year earlier.

    When i was a little kid i used to think The Golden Girls was a "girls show". Of course i associated that with my mom watching it and hanging out with my grandma.
    Im glad mom watched it. Now i do too.

    Even as a kid, not really understanding all the jokes, I loved this show! As I got older and ran across the show in reruns, I would always stop to watch and of course I thought it was much funnier! What a hoot! There was SUCH TALENT in each of them individually that the show could only be brilliant when you combined them!
    Wonder what MAUDE would have to say about things today, in the yr. 2020?
    I'm not sure but I bet it would be HILARIOUS!
