This came into my feed today, Feb 5, 2022 and Bea passed almost 13 years ago! Makes me cry. I am so thankful that we have these memories in the palm of our hands.
As much as I think the internet & that lead to the social media age which has not been good for people I am grateful to yt to relive moments like this b/c unless u caught it on tv live or a re run or taped something it was gone. I've discovered so many things that I wasnt born for or too young to have watched. Who knew even releasing shows on dvd would become passe. U can watch anything on yt or buy any season of a show & it's at ur fingertips instead of having to drag out the box sets & searching for a season or episode u like which I was still doing only 7 years ago. Everything is on streaming anyway but yt is the best thing about the internet in terms of entertainment
It touched my heart to not only see Bea and Rosie enjoy singing the theme song, but also for the audience to join in and have a great time by having a singalong. That Maude theme song was so wonderful!
@@elizabethpugh117 : Definitely. Great gospel-style tune. (And the more bluesy, soulful, end theme was great, too.) And if we're talking about great funky '70s TV theme songs, let's not forget Sanford & Son! :-D
I'm a 40 year old black man who feels he just lost a loved one. It hits cats like myself hard because I was alive to see all her shows that made her famous to begin with. I was there and seen them come on and sat glued to the Television when Maude came on back in the 70's. and I seen some of her stage shows in vagas as well as being a huge fan of The Golden Girls. You know..... How many of us will be able to say we left a mark on several generations of people.. Remarkable. Timeless. Now rest...
A true comedic genious in every sense. The Golden Girls is my favorite show of all time. Such a sad day, but her memory will live on forever. Thanks Bea for the many years of laughter and smiles you brought me and will continue to do so on my Golden Girls and Maude DVD'S. RIP.
I enjoyed this so much that I got chills! I’m 42 and I remember watching reruns when I was 10. The same age Rosie said she was watching it. Anything Bea Arthur was in was worth watching. She’s truly missed ❤️
I absolutely love Bea Arthur one of the best comedy actors of all time. Loved this video. Rosie did a fabulous job singing. Loved the Maude theme song. Miss you Bea but you will never be forgotten. Thanks for being a friend
B will forever be my favorite . I too have been watching her since All In The Family and her show, Maude and I still watch them today. good clean fun and laughter, something that lacking in a lot of today's sitcoms.
I agree bea arthur is the most talented woman she.s smart she.s funny and she.s sweet and there will be no another bea arthur i also love bea arthur no matter how shes look or how she sounds i will always love her and rest in peace bea arthur we will always love you
So sad...my sincere condolences go out to her loved ones. She was pure class and brought Joy and Laughter into my life when there was little to laugh about knowing your next Act will be pain free and Light!!!! Peace Denise Canada
It's great seeing actors being proud of their work. Most days, actors shun their past work and don't want anything to do with it. It seems like in order to have longevity with your career, you need to embrace it all.
I was born in 1966 a literally cut my teeth watching shows like Maude, Mary Tyler Moore, Rhoda, and Good Times, with independent working women highlighted. It really shaped who I am. Got a degree and a career before I got married and my daughters are doing the same. Maude and other shows like it are American treasures.
An Absolutely Beautiful Interview. It's so uplifting it bought Happy Tears to My Eyes. Bea Arthur was Such a Class Act, and not only that, She Served in The United States Marine Corps!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💞
"Joan of Arc with the Lord to guide her, She was a sister who really cooked" I thought that was just a dark joke on family guy, can't believe that it was the actual lyrics from the real song
Rest in Peace Beatrice Arthur. She was a fantastic actress. I truly enjoyed watching her on Maude, and my favorite, The Golden Girls. She was a true leading lady, and now an television icon. Rest in Peace!
Bea looked like my mother- same hair too! My grandmother, mother and Aunt all looked like Bea in some form! That’s why I love Bea! She reminds me of all of them plus she was funny and lovely!
The golden girls proves if u have serious talent u can still work in any venue & tg the people at nbc did think a show about women north of 50 could be great & come on everyone loves the golden girls! I saw a clip of bea & betty white in the 70s way before the GG & both were singing & tap dances like no problem looking like it was so easy. I feel that when their is less channels not as many platforms u water down the talent. These legends like bea & betty I'm sure took singing dancing acting lessons & their humor & delivery was not " old " in the 80s they were hysterical. I was maybe 4 or 5 when it premiered so by 89 I was watching the re runs & the show which thrived on a sat night at 9! Usually that's where they put shows to die off on sat night b/c people are out. Thursday was always where the powerhouse lineups were. I think sun through Thursdays had to be the best for a show. I recall growing pains & mr belvedere when they were limping along at the end went to sat nights & as a little kid we were usually at cousins & went away so did not watch anything on sat. I think most people & they werent looking for the kiddos to be watching but that what 18 to 49 demo
I have always loved Bea Arthur. She was a guiding force to all of us who want to change the world in some way! She was also a true comedic genius and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED her on Maude and The Golden Girls. RIP Bea Arthur, you will be missed dearly.
Just don't watch it on those nostalgic classic TV cable channels; they butcher those episodes so badly to make room for all the commercials. I know because I tried watching ... I tuned in a few times to the beginning of Maude, and the first scene is already in progress after the theme tune ends. You're missing lots of dialogue and jokes. Get the DVD's.
This is FANTASTIC....!!! Such a great moment, between Bea and Rosie. Bea had so much class about her, she excelled in everything she did. I will truly miss her, as she was my favorite Golden Girl, much less actor, singer etc...Her accomplisments are endless. God bless you Bea, grace heaven now, with your beauty & talent forever.......
I am truly heartbroken I am so glad I saw you a few years ago in Provincetown doing your 1 woman act, you will truly be missed by all. Say hello to Estelle Getty for the rest of us untill we get there to see you again and let the laughter begin...RIP..
I completely agreed with everything Bea Arthur stood for and believed in, including the opinions of the characters she played. She was a fantastic talent and a wonderful person. I have never seen or heard anything otherwise.
We were so fortunate to be living when Bea Arthur (Maude/Dorothy), Betty White (Sue Ann Nivens/Rose), Rue McClanahan (Vivian/Blanche), and Estelle Getty (Sophia) all came into our lives via TV! Those were the days guys and gals! Sure, do miss them! 🥹😢😢
Bea reminded me of my grandmother. She will be missed and the memories will be forever. Growing up with Maude was so family like in my generation. Thanks for the memory Bea.
"Maude" will go down as one of the most important sitcoms in history. The social topics it covered were way ahead of its time.
Bea Arthur was serioulsy one of the great comedic actresses of all time. Her timing was flawless!
FACTS
Bea Authur’s Sarcasm Wuz Simply Out Of Dis🌍IMO!
@@gregorywilliams8555 Huh ?
What do you mean her timing?
@@MrWolfchamp-xi3cu Her comedic timing.

Same!

Can you imagine the EXCITEMENT of the restaurant staff when the actual "Maude" was there 😳👏🏻
Loved that theme song. RIP Donny Hathaway and Bea Arthur
I love Bea Arthur, she is so missed!!!
Shady Pines, Ma!!
Bea was truly a rare gem, talented, funny, and brilliant. Rest in peace, wonderful lady!
Love Bea Arthur!!!!
Love all those funky 70s tv theme songs like Maude, Wonder Woman and One Day at a Time!
vampyr69 and the Jeffersons!
@@elizabethpugh117 : Definitely. Great gospel-style tune. (And the more bluesy, soulful, end theme was great, too.)
And if we're talking about great funky '70s TV theme songs, let's not forget Sanford & Son! :-D
Funky, gospel, etc. themes of the 1970s. Does any present TV show have an edgy or interesting theme? I can't think of any. Have we become boring?
@@Milesco AMEN. I FELT THE SPIRIT MOVING IN THAT SONG. SHALOM
I love that. Bea was great as Maude and Dorothy. Rosie singing the theme to her was fun and mad respect.
I'm a 40 year old black man who feels he just lost a loved one. It hits cats like myself hard because I was alive to see all her shows that made her famous to begin with.

Lovely interview by Rosie. And singing the Maude theme song, took great courage. As for Bea Arthur, she is a Legend. Maude. Dorothy.
...and of course, the gentleman who sang that original theme song was the late, great Donny Hathaway.
Corea Kixx learned something new today
He was phenomenal. RIP
Duh? You reaching for thumbs fr🤣
A Legend.
With a wonderful cover by the legendary Sammy Davis, Jr!!
"amelia earhart flew a lot of airplanes except for that time when she didnt come back"
And then there's maude?
@@StevieGreig1 Uggh, that was an ordeal...
Aaahhhh ahhhhhhh ahhhhhhhhh!
Dude lmao
“Susan B. Anthony, always out doin’ stuff, marching around and holding up signs”.
For those who don't know MAUDE lasted from 1972-1978 on CBS.
She was my favourite character on Golden Girls :)
I miss her so damn much! MY GOD WHAT A FANTASTIC ACTRESS!
You should go see her
Who is watching this in 2021? Love Bea Arthur and remember watching Golden Girls with my Grandmother.
A true comedic genious in every sense. The Golden Girls is my favorite show of all time. Such a sad day, but her memory will live on forever. Thanks Bea for the many years of laughter and smiles you brought me and will continue to do so on my Golden Girls and Maude DVD'S. RIP.
Rosie's show tops my list of all such shows. She was brilliant & hysterical.
I enjoyed this so much that I got chills! I’m 42 and I remember watching reruns when I was 10. The same age Rosie said she was watching it. Anything Bea Arthur was in was worth watching. She’s truly missed ❤️
I absolutely love Bea Arthur one of the best comedy actors of all time. Loved this video. Rosie did a fabulous job singing. Loved the Maude theme song. Miss you Bea but you will never be forgotten. Thanks for being a friend
Rest In Peace Beatrice Arthur. April 25, 2009
I hope she’s having a wonderful journey.
I miss the Rosie show. 😂 (Nostalgia overload)
Me, too
Oprah, Ricki Lake and Rosie were the QUEENS of 90's Talk and Rosie loved havin' fun and plus, she even beat Oprah for a Daytime Emmy Award
One of the best tv theme songs ever!
"God'll get you for that Rosie" LMAO!!!! RIP Bea... I love watching you to TV. Wonderful talent
Bea Arthur is the BEST...never will there be another one like her! RIP Bea...you are so missed every single day.

My absolute favorite tv show ever!!!!!!.....MAUDE
B will forever be my favorite . I too have been watching her since All In The Family and her show, Maude and I still watch them today. good clean fun and laughter, something that lacking in a lot of today's sitcoms.
of all tv shows this is my favorite theme song.
RIP Bea!! You gave me countless laughs and fond memories!
Ohhh my goodness - I sooo miss all of those shows and characters - Blanch was my all time favoite
Can you imagine, that must have been such an honour for Rosie to actually sing that for Bea Arthur!! That is so cool!

Theme song by the late great Donnie Hathaway 🥰. This warmed my heart
Glorious.... Just glorious...! Thank you.
Well done rosie. Great singing
Back when Rosie was a universally loved person.
I miss those days…the good ol’ ones.
that was great, I love the Maude theme too
Glenn Marshall a lot of people don't realize Donnie Hathaway sung the theme song
Maude was a great show! Loved Bea Arthur!!!
Rosie sang Maude like never before .. I dug it! 😎
I miss that show
Right on Maude!!! Love you and thank you Bea. I was 10 years old when All in the Family and Maude aired. 💝💖❤🤍
Back when I liked Rosie.
Missed this one. Fun
Love watching these old shows. Love Rosie
It's great seeing actors being proud of their work. Most days, actors shun their past work and don't want anything to do with it. It seems like in order to have longevity with your career, you need to embrace it all.
The Legend, Bea Arthur, we miss U, with much love.
Absolutely. Unbelievable talent. Arthur bea. One of the best
I was born in 1966 a literally cut my teeth watching shows like Maude, Mary Tyler Moore, Rhoda, and Good Times, with independent working women highlighted. It really shaped who I am. Got a degree and a career before I got married and my daughters are doing the same. Maude and other shows like it are American treasures.
Love Bea. And love the maude theme

"Joan of Arc with the Lord to guide her, She was a sister who really cooked" I thought that was just a dark joke on family guy, can't believe that it was the actual lyrics from the real song
I am finding out more and more that Family Guy quotes the funny stuff, no matter how obscure. I think that's their real talent.
I grew up with this wonderful women - and all her talent. Bea was fantastic!!! Maude ROCKED!
I didn't catch that until I was good and grown; feminists wouldn't wouldn't let him get away with that today...
Rest in Peace Beatrice Arthur. She was a fantastic actress. I truly enjoyed watching her on Maude, and my favorite, The Golden Girls. She was a true leading lady, and now an television icon. Rest in Peace!
Bea looked like my mother- same hair too! My grandmother, mother and Aunt all looked like Bea in some form! That’s why I love Bea! She reminds me of all of them plus she was funny and lovely!
She’s so gentle and modest here. Makes you realize Maude and Dorothy are characters.
This woman knew, WHO SHE WAS

Agreed...Bea is truly a diamond.. I hope drama schools will rewatch her shows on becoming lead talents and quality timing of delivery...
I know, and LOVE, Bea Arthur from the Golden Girls; never watched Maud. From what I'm seeing about that show, I should!
The golden girls proves if u have serious talent u can still work in any venue & tg the people at nbc did think a show about women north of 50 could be great & come on everyone loves the golden girls! I saw a clip of bea & betty white in the 70s way before the GG & both were singing & tap dances like no problem looking like it was so easy.

Maude was truly groundbreaking in that time period. I liked Mrs Naugatuck!
Hi, I keep watching every show. I should be watching the ones I'm w/& I keep watching Rosie! Missing Her!😷🤗🐽✌❤, Sheryl
I love Bea she was awesome. She was no bullshit
I wished they done a duet to the song "I Got You Babe".
Dorothy and Sophia's version was, er ah, Golden!!!!!
Rest In Peace Bea Arthur😢😢
I have always loved Bea Arthur. She was a guiding force to all of us who want to change the world in some way! She was also a true comedic genius and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED her on Maude and The Golden Girls. RIP Bea Arthur, you will be missed dearly.
I watch Maude in 2019.😊
I am watching now
Just don't watch it on those nostalgic classic TV cable channels; they butcher those episodes so badly to make room for all the commercials. I know because I tried watching ... I tuned in a few times to the beginning of Maude, and the first scene is already in progress after the theme tune ends. You're missing lots of dialogue and jokes. Get the DVD's.
I was less than a year old when Maude debuted. ☺️
i miss her so so so much as well i love her !
That was Awesome
The great thing about Rosie is that she's a genuine fan and she watched all of these shows. So all her guests were really at ease.
This is FANTASTIC....!!! Such a great moment, between Bea and Rosie. Bea had so much class about her, she excelled in everything she did. I will truly miss her, as she was my favorite Golden Girl, much less actor, singer etc...Her accomplisments are endless. God bless you Bea, grace heaven now, with your beauty & talent forever.......
Love Rosie!! Great interview.
I am truly heartbroken I am so glad I saw you a few years ago in Provincetown doing your 1 woman act, you will truly be missed by all. Say hello to Estelle Getty for the rest of us untill we get there to see you again and let the laughter begin...RIP..
What a great interview that captured her personality
❤️Maude. But I really love Rosie, by far the best talk show host.
Golden Girls Rule❤️
its little vignetts like this that make memories for tv archives💟
This was awesome! Loved it!! Thanks for posting!
✌🏻🙂✌🏻
OMG this was 13 years ago? Seems like yesterday.
God I'm getting old.
CBS, Please release the entire series of Maude on DVD...PLEASE!!!!
Rosie O'Donnell's mother passed away when Rosie was just 11 & has been searching for mothers on tv ever since. I love Rosie she has such ooomph.
I know the feeling I’d love to have a mother figure in my life since my mom passed ..
I love B! miss her, makes me tear up. wish I could have really known her! beautiful woman, her and all my golden girls!!
I completely agreed with everything Bea Arthur stood for and believed in, including the opinions of the characters she played. She was a fantastic talent and a wonderful person. I have never seen or heard anything otherwise.
Maude is still on rerun. I’m 50 and it’s my fav show. Still
Rosie actually killed it:-)!
We were so fortunate to be living when Bea Arthur (Maude/Dorothy), Betty White (Sue Ann Nivens/Rose), Rue McClanahan (Vivian/Blanche), and Estelle Getty (Sophia) all came into our lives via TV! Those were the days guys and gals! Sure, do miss them! 🥹😢😢
i've always loved bea,,,she was a no nonsense sister who stood her own ground ,,,,she is so missed,,love her
Bea reminded me of my grandmother. She will be missed and the memories will be forever. Growing up with Maude was so family like in my generation. Thanks for the memory Bea.
What a GREAT couple of broads! RIP BEA.
I be lying if I said I don't miss this lady. 😢😢 RIP Bea
Flawless Rosie....
Good job Rosie. Glad Bea Arthur not only got her own show, but went on to star in another great show. She was hilarious.
Will treasure the memories, Bea Arthur. Thank you for being our friend.
Sitting here watching Maude and had to look up the song. RIP Bea Arthur!!!
