    ‘Deveraux-obe’ is a new addition to the vocabulary we need.

    Watching the whole series again this year is bittersweet, knowing that all four of them (and many of the other cast/guest appearances) are gone. But the legacy of this show will last forever.
    P.S. Has anyone watched "Maude", the sitcom Bea Arthur did before GG? I've only seen one episode and some clips, but she's as shady there as she was when playing Dorothy!

      Maude is a great show. I caught it way way back when because my family also watched All in the Family.

      @@StayGoldenGirls I also have to say that I know most people don't like Bea Arthur's voice, but I think it was beautiful. Her singing with Angela Lansbury is a must-see!

      I started watching a couple episodes of Maude last year but got away from it when life got too busy. Bea was amazing in it, as expected. Thank you for reminding me to pick it back up!

    • @StayGoldenGirls
      @StayGoldenGirls  2 роки тому +4

      Yeah! Me too. They were pretty strict about it. We were kinda near one of the stages that was out in the open, but also working at the same time made it a little challenging.

      Oh thank you so much!! You know I thought it was interesting that they didn't have a screening room there. For people like to just sit or hang out. Recovery from the busy day. Must be some kinda thing about now being able to show it

      @StayGoldenGirls  2 роки тому +5

      Not silly. It was a good time. It was a hella busy one, like our days were 12+ hours long and we worked hard. At the table helping hundreds of people each day. But worth it. A good experience. We had great tablemates next door with TwistedEgos and talking to people and Hillary and I hanging out, which we never get to have that much time together, so wins all around.

    2:03 They got the wrong aircraft silhouette; it was a Boeing 727, not a 737 in the opening credit's very beginning. Just a bit of picky trivia. It looks like there would have been loads of smiles and much reminiscing. How many Golden Drag Girls were there? Thanks for sharing.

    Hi Courtney, I didn’t even know there was a Golden Girl Convention! Wow! You and your girlfriend drove fifteen hours. I’m guessing you woke up very early , packed up and head out. Then you had to unpack and set up.It must have been a crazy long day. It’s a lot of work. We all have our quirks. It’s what makes us unique yes? I don’t know you but don’t be too hard on yourself. I think you’re very smart.
    I believe driving to Florida from Montréal in a car was a test. I did it twice in 27 hours straight with bathroom pit stops and gas. I had sandwiches, snacks and drinks in a cooler lol. I had a backup driver then. My partner flew back and I drove drive back down north alone. She didn’t want the long road again. I took two days , It was safer for me. I didn’t want to drive at night with the trucks.
    Thank you for your videos , stay safe 😊❤

    • @StayGoldenGirls
      @StayGoldenGirls  2 роки тому +2

      It was indeed long days! The drive days being over 12 hours each way and then at the convention it was open like 10+ hours a day, so working at the table. We pretty much went back and crashed every night. Florida from Montreal is no joke! 27 hours wow. We used to drive to Disney World from CT as a kid and I don't think we ever made that good of time. Plus true, big trucks are no joke.

    @saberiandream316 2 роки тому

    You should make a video about your favorite seasons of the Golden Girls. I can't speak for the particular order, but my favorite season is Season 4. It's in that in-between period that's from the more grounded earlier seasons and the later zany elements that kinda jump the shark sometimes.

    • @StayGoldenGirls
      @StayGoldenGirls  2 роки тому

      Totally hear you on that. I do think overall 3-5 are the most solid of the seasons. That has the majority of the best episodes/bits/ characters. There are some outliers a few classic in other seasons like Libertine and Journey in 7. Thanks for the suggestion I'll add it to my ideas list!
