Bea was a power house. She is more than just a "Golden Girl". She has a terrific voice and great stage presence. It's a shame she didn't get too do more Broadway because that was right up her ally. A very strong confident woman for that time period.
Not only is Bea in heels, but how many times have you ever seen her in something fitted and flashing leg?
Her cheating husband had just left her a couple of years before. This was her princess Di revenge dress moment!!
Never!!
It was rare to see Bea in heels!! She looked and sounded fantastic!!
She also wore heels in an episode of Maude where she is at a psychologist office.
The spinning CBS logo is my one of my earliest childhood memories.
I was just thinking its a shame Bea never got to be a Disney Villain, she would have been perfect!
She would have made a great Cruella De Ville
I read on IMDB that she was the original choice for Ursula in “The Little Mermaid” but apparently her agent turn it down before even showing her the script
Snow White’s evil Queen
She looked like the belle of the ball. ❤️ Absolutely stunning.
@2:42 I loved hearing Bea's, "Here I Am" above everybody elses. I love Bea's voice!!
For a heavy smoker, Bea sure could hold a note.
Gorgeous & SO Lovely... rest in Peace Bea, thanks for all the smiles :)
She was truly amazing!
Bea Arthur is Amazing!
Bea looked amazing.. such an elegant woman. A real woman not a little girl!! She was in her fifties here!
Bea looked amazing!
That "special" intro brought back hella flashbacks to when tv was good.
Yes, compared to this, TV really sucks now.
Bea never looked better then here
And Melba Moore...what a voice. And Madame was a hoot.
The impersonations at the end are a riot lol!!!
Wow. Melba Moore looks fantastic
What a classy lady.
Bea slayed this black dress! PS look at Hudson’s expression at 1:50 🤣
Can you blame him?
I like the fact that Bea was a big girl, she wasn't some half starved little twit, she really represents us bigger people! :) And her amazing talent! I love this woman so damn much! WE LOVE YOU BEA!!!! :)
Bea Arthur to me was curvy but never big.
It would be cool if they had these specials now :)
That has got to be a Bob Mackie gown Bea is wearing!
Nice to see her in a real dress and heels, showing herself off. She has so much to let herself be.
Here after the Cecily Strong Musical Theatre Fundraiser skit on SNL last night👍
Oh how Rock's life was about to change.😢
Bea Arthur…..a staggering talent.
I remember the first time I watched the golden girls here in the UK my mum and I was convinced Bea was a man in drag due to her voice. I feel ashamed for thinking that I grew to appreciate and love her. She was a great actress singer etc and playing Dorothy in the golden girls has become my comfort blanket. I love this lady
God I miss variety shows like this!
Last time I saw Bea sung, was in the STAR WARS HOLIDAY SPECIAL.
Loved the ending!
hi i read in some article that ursula's voice in the little mermaid was supposed to be hers but because of her scheduled it never worked out..
Classic
Bea is all legs! Weird but fun !
Melba Moore was extremely talented. Her record label failed to utilize her correctly.
Oh my gosh, Bea! I suddenly miss TGG
She had legs to look at.
Make sure you see " Everyone Today is Turning On". The weirdest number you'll ever see and its from this special. Why it's not included I have no idea. Just Google the title. You'll never Bea the same.
It's from the same show as "Hey There Good Times," Cy Coleman and Michael Stewart's "I Love My Wife." That was 1977 though, I'm not sure if there was a mutual friend involved in both.
I dont wanna do that tell me why
Bea is in heels and STILL shorter than Rock Hudson! He must have been very tall!
He was indeed !
1:19 I mean......................
That's the Bea Arthur I know 😘
Bea here her height wonderfully. Gigi and Bella would be jealous now.
Those 2 have nothing on Bea. Bea was a diva 100%
Where can I find the full special?
Unfortunately I don't know...
Bea had a nice body she always hid under baggy clothes.
Did they put together two separate footage of Bea beside herself, or were those Bea Arthur impersonators standing alongside her?
Was thinking the same. The shadows on the floor seem ok....I would think it was a double in real time....but I don't know. It wad done very well.
What song is this?
Hey There, Good Times from the musical I Love My Wife, which Bea's husband, Gene Saks, directed.
Wow. Melba Moore looks fantastic
