I love how they were all so savage on this show. Dorothy was savage in a calculated way. Blanche was savage on impulse. Rose was accidentally and unknowingly savage. And Sophia just had no filter at all.
I've seen the clip for this but it cut off the "decaf" part. With it, the scene's not as funny: w/o it it makes it looks like "slut" and "moron" was the nicer thing Dorothy could have said if she had continued before her coffee. ...just my thought, carry on
you can always tell when Dorothy is going to unleash a zinger. she gets quiet, stares and then out it comes! and it's always funny! she was the master!!
My mom was watching this in her last days of cancer. You could even hear a slight chuckle or laugh even after she stopped communicating. ❤ So it holds a special place for me in my heart.
I’ve been watching them since high school and even then I related to almost every situation they issued. Dorothy was my favorite but all deserve respect.
@@ThatRedhedd Doesn’t even come close to these ladies…I was in my 20s and college when I watched a rare episode and it just cracked me up (I have an aunt who is just like Dorothy…know it all and superior to the other 2). Three’s Co. is not about the lives of 50- 60yr olds and of course the senile (?) Ma’.
lol I once used the insult she gave Stan stating that he was 1 chromosome away from being a potato. I was dealing with a customer who tried dragging a mobile jumper cable from the front when the wheels were in the back.
I grew up watching this show and I think that's where I got my sarcasm from. Here's an original line from me: “you could get shot with an arrow and miss the point.”
PertinentToday. #Asalways. some 👍 individual Who will remain anonymous gave Andrew Gold’s theme song 🎧 ? Aroundfifty years ago . As a Wedding 💒 🎁? twisted sense of humor? #Irish Johnny 👼
There’s a meme of her that I shared of her that says, “you ever make a facial expression and think, ‘whoa I didn’t mean to make that face out loud’?” 😂
Blanche: Dorothy, your husband is here. Dorothy: I don't have a husband, call the police. Stan: Your ex-husband! Dorothy: Then I'll call the police! Blanche: Can you imagine your son going into his 60s always going to you for help with no life and a job. (Doorbell rings and Dorothy gets up to open the door.) Dorothy: No, I can't. (She opens it to find Stan in front of her) Dorothy: Yes, I can!
I love that she was in the military, she was in the Marine Corps during WWII. This explains her death stare. Lol. She really was something else. God rest her soul
She mastered facial expressions. That’s why, while the others moved around, she ALWAYS had the centre seat at the kitchen table. It was so we could see her facial expressions play out.
Many people don’t realize the writers of these shows are the real geniuses. Actors take credit for their whole careers from something they didn’t create. William Shatner for instance. I actually felt a little bad when he announced that he never has been to outer space 🪐.
I remember when Dorothy was yelling at Rose about "condoms" in the drugstore, the clerk behind the counter said, "Take it easy lady! Did you just get out of prison?"
Not to mention is spans generations. Young women, middle aged women, old women, even men. We can all enjoy it even if we can't relate to the characters
Stan: Dorothy, we've got a stack of papers to go over before the surgery. Dorothy: Surgery?! Sophia: Finally going through with that hair transplant. Stan: Sophia, not everyone know this isn't real. (pointing to his toupee) Dorothy: Oh please! Stevie Wonder could tell that's a rug! Blanche: Dorothy, your husband is here. Dorothy: I don't have a husband. Call the police. Stan: Your ex-husband, Stan. Dorothy: I'll call the police! Dorothy: That didn't sound right on our honeymoon and it doesn't sound right, now! Dorothy: Rose, you work in Grief Counseling. What do you expect, comedians?! Dorothy: I used to think Stan would take care of me. I mean, we didn't have much saved, but he was a darn good novelty salesman. Sounds naïve to think I've placed my hopes on the future to a bald pinhead, with the morals of a maggot who made a living selling plastic dog doo. But at least, I'm not bitter.
Rose: "It's true, Charlie was the only lover I ever had. My first time was on our wedding night" Blanche: "Get out of here!" Dorothy: "Oh back off Blanche! Not all of us are classified by the navy as a friendly port!"
Dorothy Blanche have you seen the latest ads, join the Navy, see the world sleep with Blanche Devereaux. Join the army be all you can be sleep with Blanche Devereaux. The Marines are looking for a few good men who have not slept with Blanche Devereaux!!!
Now that all of you have brought it up, I'm sure someone will "make it so!" Obviously, the male alternative will be Patrick Stewart, for totally different reasons!!
I remember I used to watch this show with my mom off and on, when I was a teenager in the '80s , I couldn't get it that much I was a young buck.. now I am in my mid '50s, l watching the re-runs, and actually now these close to their age when they started the show understand them more and laughing more... Good old days. Rip girls
Ok, I am gonna say it: the dress looked better on Dorothy. It actually makes Blanche looker shorter and heavier, and the color makes her look washed out. Blanche looked better in more tailored dresses and prints. Dorothy’s height and coloring were made for more flowing fabrics and pastels.
The glacial stare. The built up tension from those 1sec-too-long-pauses. The deadpan delivery of those deliciously witty come backs that could cut glass. Dorothy Zbornak was one of a kind.
“Step on a crack, break your mother’s back, it doesn’t work.. I know… I tried.” 🤣 I love facial expressions when she’s sarcastic or when Sophia says something
I loved the timing here. The long pause and meaningful look before she said: "..................................................................I tried."
Dorothy was my favorite. Bea Arthur had perfect comic timing (not even if you were hanging upside down on a trapeze :D). Her facial expressions said it all. Rest in Peace to all of these lovely Golden Girls.
All the cast of Golden Girls are reunited in heaven: Estelle Getty ((1923-2008)) Beatrice Arthur ((1922-2009)) Rue McClanahan ((1934-2010)) Betty White ((1922-2021))
“How did she die?” “You know we’re not sure. One night, she left in her wheelchair and never came back. The next day, the neighborhood kids had a go-cart, with two really big back wheels.” Gets me every time lol

My favourite line she says to Stan is when his brother visits she hugs him and Stan says "what about me babe" and she snaps back "Go hug a landmine" 🤣🤣🤣
Stan: Dorothy, we've got a stack of papers to go over before the surgery. Dorothy: Surgery?! Sophia: Finally going ahead with that hair transplant. Stan: Sophia, not everyone know this isn't real. (pointing to his toupee) Dorothy: Oh please! Stevie Wonder could tell that's a rug! Stan: Dorothy, try to control yourself, it's been a while and I need some rest. (Gets kicked off the bed by Dorothy) Stan: What the hell is that for?! Dorothy: You're not getting in this bed, Stanley!!!!! Stan: Then, where am I supposed to sleep?! Dorothy: On the floor like any dog!!!! Stan: Oh, Fine. Fine! Stan Zbornak doesn't need to beg a woman to get into bed. Women come to Me! Dorothy: Yeah, right after they get the approval numbers on your MasterCard! Stan: Good Night! Dorothy: Oh, Shut Up! Dorothy: That didn't sound right when you said it on our honeymoon and it doesn't sound right, now.
3:50 Rose is absolutely right, you can have a boyfriend without going all the way. I had three and stayed a virgin until I married. Why don't people believe that?
"They were probably looking for drugs." "We have Maalox and estrogen. How many junkies have gas and hot flashes?" The only thing funnier than Dorothy's cutting remarks are her absolute deadpan stares. Bea Arthur doesn't even need to say anything to get laughs.
I love her character. She's intelligent, brilliantly sardonic, lovingly witty and a strong moral force for her sisters. I think it's sheer genius of the writers to create idiosyncratic characters that have their individual charm and yet do not obscure one another.
My favorite zinger from Dorothy is when Blanche walks in upset and say's "I've never been so embarrassed in my life." Then Dorothy responded with, "What about that time you lost the keys to your handcuffs and you had to go with that guy on his mail route." 🤣😂 That one does it every time for me..
The Golden Girls aired in 1985 through 1992. It's been 38 years since the first show. One of the best comedies of all time. Dorothy is my favorite character. Her zingers are hilarious ! She actually became prettier as the years went by, I think she's the prettiest of them. So funny when she would say something nice to Stan, and then slam the door in his face !
She was always my favorite her delivery on these lines were what made this show so iconic. It’s a shame that her Betty didn’t get along as much. I always felt they had the best presence on the show
Rue, Bea, Betty and Estelle made me look forward to the weekends with my grandparents. My mum and dad had an unbelievably violent relationship, but Friday nights I escaped the chaos to sleep at my grandparents where I'd watch the Golden Girls every weekend. Whenever I see re-runs it always takes me to a happy place, and for that I'll always be grateful to these 4 amazing ladies and the best grandparents I could every have wished for.
Seriously had some talent. Sitcoms can be stale as hell sometimes. I wasn’t even born yet when this show aired, and never have been a fan of older television comedies I always thought they were too outdated and unfunny but this series…..❤ the dialogue and delivery by these four. It’s iconic. Bea was always my favorite
I always loved Dorothy's deadpan looks. And Sofia just felt like she knew she was old enough to have earned the right say anything and get away with it! They all def had their distinct personalities and were all lovable.
Dorothy is my hero. She always had the intelligent, savage response. You knew they were family because you can only say such things to family and, yet, still love each other, fight for each other and always be there for one another. Miss them all. Thank you for being a friend.
Truly talented. I love how they all made fun of her looks and never having a lot of dates, but she was the one to get married in the end. She got the last laugh. Perfect ending imo.
Her expression and tone at 9:26 kills me each and every time and the little sigh before she says "at least I'm not bitter" Bea Arthur's timing and delivery was always so spot on
One of my favorite Bea lines was when she appeared on “All in the family” as Maude. Maude says to Archie, “You can either come to the table and eat, or you can lie there and feed off your own fat”😄
I was born in the 70s, so this show is a staple in my childhood . So many nights I would fall asleep watching my girls. I loved this show and still do 💜
How does this show have me cracking up over 30 years after its release? It's so timeless and the episodes and jokes never get old. Please keep betty safe and guard her.
The way Dorothy gives her look and burns them with her savagery is unmatched. Blanche just laughs and keeps going about her business 😂 Dorothy, queen of savage
I’m a 32 year black male American 🇺🇸. Born in 1991. Me and my brothers (who were ball players and hip hop) urban kids loved this show! It would come on late on Nick @Night. We would watch everything else and stay up for that. My parents would be like they like that too?! 🎉😂 🤍
I don't think even the creators knew how timeless The Golden Girls would be, but Rue knew it all along. She was able to convince Bea to do the show, and the rest is comedic history.
I watched this show when I was in middle school. It still makes me laugh. The chemistry between all four women is undeniable. The one-liners make me laugh every time. Bea Arthur could deliver a line with just her eyes and face. Estelle Getty had the cruelest lines but got away with it like no other. This is a great show.
At the dance marathon/competition--Blanche: "I have more stamina". Dorothy: "Blanche, we are not dancing on our backs." When they're auditioning for "Cats"--Dorothy: "I could never compete with you, Blanche. You've given some of your finest performances in back alleys."
Or this one: "Lest we forget the 1964 Tokyo Olympics." I thought of it because the 2020 Tokyo Olympics have finally started. When I heard the news that Tokyo had won the rights to host the 2020 Olympics; I was extremely happy because it would be the first time since 1964 that Tokyo has hosted the Summer Olympics and the fourth time overall that Japan has hosted either the Summer or Winter Olympics. Sapporo, Japan hosted the 1972 Winter Olympics and Nagano hosted the 1998 Winter Olympics.
I love how they were all so savage on this show. Dorothy was savage in a calculated way. Blanche was savage on impulse. Rose was accidentally and unknowingly savage. And Sophia just had no filter at all.
Perfectly described!
Boom! These Ladies are true gems.
Bang on
Excellent analysis!
All true😂😂😂🤩
"I lost it, Dorothy."
"You never had it, Stanley."
Still gets me every time! 😂🤣🤣🤣
To me , this is the best
Just reading this made me lol😂

🤣🤣🤣
LOL one of the best lines of the series
My favorite line is "I better not say anything until I've had my coffee." "A slut and a moron" "I'm sorry girls it must be decaf."

"Condoms, condoms, condoms Rose!" Her level of frustration as she yells it cracks me up every single time 🤣 💀 😂 😭 😅
One of my favorite scenes too. I can still laugh out loud for 5 minutes watching that one!
“Calm down lady, you just got out of prison?”
I love it when Dorothy reaches her limit with her frustration with Rose, she loses it and really insults her 🤣🤣
This was by far one of my favorite lines from her!!!!!
N the cashier asks if she just got out of prison. Lol😊
you can always tell when Dorothy is going to unleash a zinger. she gets quiet, stares and then out it comes! and it's always funny! she was the master!!
I wish she were here to see how popular they still are and the impact that they still have on audiences. 💛
yeah because the insult was always aimed at others.

Amen! Loved this show from when I was a kid. Great chemistry, fantastic comedic timing--my fave, Bea Arthur. What a great dame!
I'm a 48 year old male, and Golden Girls is unironically my favorite sit-com ever. They really managed to get the perfect cast.
47 here. And yeah. Grew up watching it and it always reminded me of aunts. Sass and razor sharp wit know no generational boundary.
I’ve been watching them since high school and even then I related to almost every situation they issued. Dorothy was my favorite but all deserve respect.

Stan: Dorothy, we've got a stack of papers to go over before the surgery.
Dorothy: Surgery?!
Sophia: Finally going ahead with that hair transplant.
Stan: Sophia, not everyone know this isn't real. (pointing to his toupee)
Dorothy: Oh please! Stevie Wonder could tell that's a rug!
Stan: Dorothy, try to control yourself, it's been a while and I need some rest.
(Gets kicked off the bed by Dorothy)
Stan: What the hell is that for?!
Dorothy: You're not getting in this bed, Stanley!!!!!
Stan: Then, where am I supposed to sleep?!
Dorothy: On the floor like any dog!!!!
Stan: Oh, Fine. Fine! Stan Zbornak doesn't need to beg a woman to get into bed. Women come to Me!
Dorothy: Yeah, right after they get the approval numbers on your MasterCard!
Stan: Good Night!
Dorothy: Oh, Shut Up!
Dorothy: That didn't sound right when you said it on our honeymoon and it doesn't sound right, now.
Yup
3:50 Rose is absolutely right, you can have a boyfriend without going all the way. I had three and stayed a virgin until I married. Why don't people believe that?
Mine was when Stan said “From now on the floor is my home.” And Dorothy just straight up said “Enjoy”😂😭
"They were probably looking for drugs."
"We have Maalox and estrogen. How many junkies have gas and hot flashes?"
The only thing funnier than Dorothy's cutting remarks are her absolute deadpan stares. Bea Arthur doesn't even need to say anything to get laughs.
Her stares were as fabulous as Jack Benny's
She and Monty Python's John Cleese were the best. No wonder she starred in one of the remakes of Fawlty Towers.
Zqwe
Best advice is not to say anything stupid in Dorothy's presence.
A hundred per cent!
Dorothy: "No problem, sweetheart. "
Stan: "Hurry back, dumpling. "
Dorothy: "My feet have wings, barf bag."
I love her character. She's intelligent, brilliantly sardonic, lovingly witty and a strong moral force for her sisters. I think it's sheer genius of the writers to create idiosyncratic characters that have their individual charm and yet do not obscure one another.
My favorite zinger from Dorothy is when Blanche walks in upset and say's "I've never been so embarrassed in my life." Then Dorothy responded with, "What about that time you lost the keys to your handcuffs and you had to go with that guy on his mail route." 🤣😂 That one does it every time for me..
I don't remember that episode
Yeah that was funny….. because you can imagine it! Lol
@@trudylonetto1965 is called “Miles to Go” S6 Ep15
Omg hahahahah
I have used that line of sorts on my best friend
Rest in Peace, Bea Arthur.
And thank you for being a friend.
When it comes to being savage, or even going straight out gangster, Dorothy is the QUEEN!!!
Hello there!! Happy Sunday
Her "Go hug a landmine!" To Stan is my favourite that was fucking savage 🤣🤣
The Golden Girls aired in 1985 through 1992. It's been 38 years since the first show. One of the best comedies of all time. Dorothy is my favorite character. Her zingers are hilarious ! She actually became prettier as the years went by, I think she's the prettiest of them. So funny when she would say something nice to Stan, and then slam the door in his face !
38 years?!!!!!
Seems like yesterday 😘👏😘👏😘👏😘
She was always my favorite her delivery on these lines were what made this show so iconic. It’s a shame that her Betty didn’t get along as much. I always felt they had the best presence on the show
Rue, Bea, Betty and Estelle made me look forward to the weekends with my grandparents.
My mum and dad had an unbelievably violent relationship, but Friday nights I escaped the chaos to sleep at my grandparents where I'd watch the Golden Girls every weekend.
Whenever I see re-runs it always takes me to a happy place, and for that I'll always be grateful to these 4 amazing ladies and the best grandparents I could every have wished for.
your grandparents should adopt you while your parents get counselling
Great memories of great grandparents, and the golden girls.
THIS!!! I have the exact same childhood attachment to this show, every time I watch it now I feel like my grandma is with me :))
I’m so sorry your parents were awful, but at least you had some amazing grandparents.
❤
The writers of this show had incredible talent!
Hello Sophia
How are you doing today?
Seriously had some talent. Sitcoms can be stale as hell sometimes. I wasn’t even born yet when this show aired, and never have been a fan of older television comedies I always thought they were too outdated and unfunny but this series…..❤ the dialogue and delivery by these four. It’s iconic. Bea was always my favorite
Incredible writing & amazing delivery on screen
When Rose says 56 boyfriends I know one of my favorite scenes is coming.
Hello
"The slut is dead, long live the slut!"
Exactly
Still gets me every time. "... she is the grand poobah of sluts. The slut is dead, long live the slut"! I love it.
I always loved Dorothy's deadpan looks. And Sofia just felt like she knew she was old enough to have earned the right say anything and get away with it! They all def had their distinct personalities and were all lovable.
Blanche: "Well, why don't I do that since I have the most experience performing here."
Dorothy: "Blanche, the parking lot doesn't count, I'll do it" 😂
such an underrated comment
😂😂😂
Best comeback ever! 😂🤣
By far my favourite. Savage!
Some of these one liners were classic... and funny!
Rose: "I have a thought."
Everyone: "CONGRATULATIONS!!" 🥳
Rose was considered the dumb one of the group. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Lmao 🤣😂🤣😊
"the horse's eyes are crossed" sent me into the stratosphere 🤣🤣
"I tried ..it didin't work" , these ladies where comedy geniuses. 😂😂😂
All the characters had funny dialogue and they pulled it off perfectly.
Dorothy is my hero. She always had the intelligent, savage response. You knew they were family because you can only say such things to family and, yet, still love each other, fight for each other and always be there for one another. Miss them all. Thank you for being a friend.
Hello Carolyn
How are you doing today?
I love when Blanche just laughs off Dorothy and Sophia's burns sometimes. She has such a good sense of humor and confidence.
What an ICON she was (they ALL were). I still binge Golden Girls and it never (and will never) get old!
I cared for my mother for 10 years and we watched this every day and laughed so much together. Golden Girls never gets old.
Is your mom still with us?
Them congratulating Rose after she says she had a thought made me laugh too hard
Mee too
Thats what we do in our family 😂
@@benfarmer-webb1016 savage…😅😂🤣
@@benfarmer-webb1016 Ours, too.
😂😂😂😂
Dorothy’s facial expressions are enough to kill me 🤣 but her comebacks are awesome 👏🏼 😆
Truly talented. I love how they all made fun of her looks and never having a lot of dates, but she was the one to get married in the end. She got the last laugh. Perfect ending imo.
She was the queen of facial expressions😊😊
"My rear tires have less pressure in them." 😂😂
That was 😂😂😂
Ha ha ha
The writers of this show were pure GENIUS! Love "the Golden Girls".
Yes they were
The writers were genius, and the actresses brilliantly delivered
I always loved Bea Arthur. She may not have written the lines, but her comic timing was PERFECT!
Her expression and tone at 9:26 kills me each and every time and the little sigh before she says "at least I'm not bitter" Bea Arthur's timing and delivery was always so spot on
And one can relate so well to her... (In my case, it only was 2 years...)
What’s the name of the episode?
The entire group was so good at delivering the lines, comedy gold!
This cast + the writing = PERFECTION!!!
It's sad that three of the golden girls have passed away. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Hard to believe they are all gone now. But I still love watching these Golden girls.
I loved Bea Arthur in both "Maude" and "Golden Girls". She was a comedic genius!
One of my favorite Bea lines was when she appeared on “All in the family” as Maude. Maude says to Archie, “You can either come to the table and eat, or you can lie there and feed off your own fat”😄
I first saw her as Maude. 😊 I was so delighted to see she was in this show. ♥️
@@robertlefave1273 loved that line
In all in the family
I was born in the 70s, so this show is a staple in my childhood . So many nights I would fall asleep watching my girls. I loved this show and still do 💜
How does this show have me cracking up over 30 years after its release? It's so timeless and the episodes and jokes never get old. Please keep betty safe and guard her.
Well this aged horribly 💀😭
Bad news.......
The way Dorothy gives her look and burns them with her savagery is unmatched. Blanche just laughs and keeps going about her business 😂 Dorothy, queen of savage
I've seen all these episodes a million times and I'm STILL in tears from laughing! 😂😂😂 Bea Arthur was legendary!
Hello👋, how are you doing?
me too. they never get old
I’m a 32 year black male American 🇺🇸. Born in 1991. Me and my brothers (who were ball players and hip hop) urban kids loved this show! It would come on late on Nick @Night. We would watch everything else and stay up for that. My parents would be like they like that too?! 🎉😂 🤍
@@101_Juice My dad said the exact same thing 😆!
I love how Dorothy gets dark and relatable
Hello Paige 👋, how are you doing?
RIP to miss betty white. all of the girls are finally together again
Dorothy: "She is the EASIEST woman in this room"
Blanche: "Dorothy Zbornak, you take that back!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"The slut is dead, long live the slut."
“The slut is dead, long lives the slut”
One of my favorite episodes!!! 🤣🤣🤣
@@Essence0 I agree with you on that.
The slut is dead, long live THE slut!
"I lost it Dorthy" "you never had it Stanley"
When Dorothy pauses and looks towards the camera, you already knowwwww she about to be shady😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I freaking love her!!!
I don't think even the creators knew how timeless The Golden Girls would be, but Rue knew it all along. She was able to convince Bea to do the show, and the rest is comedic history.
I watched this show when I was in middle school. It still makes me laugh. The chemistry between all four women is undeniable. The one-liners make me laugh every time. Bea Arthur could deliver a line with just her eyes and face. Estelle Getty had the cruelest lines but got away with it like no other. This is a great show.
I watched the entry White bloopers & the shows would have been funnier I they were left in! 😂
''Blanche, the horse's eyes are crossed'' LMAO
I died!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
So darn funny! 🤣
Straight up belly laughed with that one.
😂😂😂😂
Oh my Goooood! I'm in tears 😂😂
"No, Blanche, she's upset because they keep changing the taste of Coke."
At the dance marathon/competition--Blanche: "I have more stamina". Dorothy: "Blanche, we are not dancing on our backs."
When they're auditioning for "Cats"--Dorothy: "I could never compete with you, Blanche. You've given some of your finest performances in back alleys."
Or this one: "Lest we forget the 1964 Tokyo Olympics." I thought of it because the 2020 Tokyo Olympics have finally started. When I heard the news that Tokyo had won the rights to host the 2020 Olympics; I was extremely happy because it would be the first time since 1964 that Tokyo has hosted the Summer Olympics and the fourth time overall that Japan has hosted either the Summer or Winter Olympics. Sapporo, Japan hosted the 1972 Winter Olympics and Nagano hosted the 1998 Winter Olympics.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 that back alley!
I'm crying. Lol
This show will never not be hilarious! It's just as funny now as it was then. R.I.P. you Golden Girls.
"How many boyfriends could a naive farmer's daughter have"
"56"
Dorothy didn't need to say anything what was said and her look was enough!
"it must be decaf" is a briiiiiiiiiiiilliant punchline.
The savagery is real with this one. 😆
Lol
“I have a date to play this morning”
“With a man?”
“No, with a Venus fly trap”
I love Dorothy’s delivery of that line 🤣
Lmao!
That was my favorite line 😂
Blanche's line is such a great set up for Dorothy's. It's equal parts surprise and lust.
3:13 "Not even if you were hanging upside-down on a trapeze!" 🤣🤣🤣
The face of a woman who has just had enough
Anyone remember when Dorothy said Stan had the personality of a dial tone? 😂🤣
