Rose: We never had Cracker jacks in St Olaf but we did have Genürgen Flürgen crispbreads, and if you were really lucky you’d get a dried cow’s teat as a prize in the bottom of the box. I guess I’ll have to settle for an Emmy if I open a Cracker jack box down here in Miami.
She was also the last one of them to win and now they really had all won. Betty was first, then Rue, then Estelle won supporting actress that evening, so when Bea won leading actress, it officially cemented that they were all powerhouse winners. 😊
@Theadambshapiro yes! And this also cemented them as one of the only casts in tv history where the whole cast won Emmys along with All In The Family and Will and Grace. Everybody Loves Raymond almost made it too if only Peter Boyle had won.
I wonder what must have been going through Bea's mind just before Peter Falk announced the winner....Betty had won 2 years before, Rue won the previous year, and Estelle won Supporting Actress earlier that evening! It truly would have sucked if Bea hadn't won....but she did, which finished off the Grand Slam for the four of those great ladies! :)
She really should have won for the first season. I think her scene in the premier season where she confronts Stan for dumping her after her daughter's wedding was the best acting scene that entire first season. I don't even know why Betty White was nominated all seven seasons. She was good, but I think Rue (Blanche) was probably the greatest actress of that whole show.
Matt D. Bea Arthur had good comedic timing but between the "angry" acting and the shouting-- NAH. Her acting is one-dimensional and tiresome. Betty White, a sharp witty funny smart person in real life plays a slow perennially innocent woman-- THAT is acting!
> Betty White, a sharp witty funny smart person in real life plays a slow perennially innocent woman-- THAT is acting! If that is the criteria then Bea deserved her Emmy as much as anyone because from interviews with practically everyone who knows Bea Arthur personally, not those who know her through Maude or Golden Girls, has said that Bea in real life is shy, reserved and quiet, the exact opposite of her public persona. Now THAT, should I say, is acting too !!
@@jess4metoo Don't be so harsh. Bea was very quiet and understated. Betty was more outgoing and bubbly. It seems more likely that Bea's personality just clashed with Betty's. I'm sure Betty understood this, which is why she holds no ill will to Bea.
@@TheTerryE nonsense...Bea Arthur was what held that show together without her....there is no show...and you should look into betty white a bit...she may not be the person she is supposed to be...
Bea looked like she was about to fall apart like she absolutely could not believe that she won lol. She was such a self deprecating person but so, so talented and gracious as a person.
thats what i though when she started her speech.......best comedic tv actress ever in my opinion..with respect to LB and MTM another favorite and she looks stunning here
I always think it's so fitting that Bea won wearing a white dress. She always expressed a bit of envy towards her Mame costar Angela Lansbury, who got to wear a white dress during curtain calls while Bea Arthur had to wear black. After all those years, she finally won an award wearing a white dress!
I personally think that Bea should have won the Emmy in the first season. Her performance in the episode "Guess who's coming to the Wedding" was truly a tour-de-force. Bea definitely has and showed in full force her dramatic chops in this episode. The comedic moments that she displayed were stellar as well. That performance was amazing and truly should have been recognized. Bea looks radiant in this clip as she humbly acknowledges they were an ensemble. Well deserved.
I agree. Like Candice Bergen in Murphy Brown, Bea could have won multiple years in a row - and i would have started with her in Season 1, but it was nice that each of the women won sequentially. Bea Arthur was a force of nature.
@@toddskivolocki6972 hmm donthe judges really only look at JUST the episode and actor submits..I don't get it dkesnt that seem too myopic to you or anyone else..indkdnt even know that episode submission was a thing until.recently..isn't it more fair and valid and comprehensive for the judges or the committee whatever you call them to evaluate the entire season of work to decide who wins? I thought that's how winners were determined for emmys not just based on one episode they submitted? Has it always been that way?
@@leif1075 the thing I find strange is that lead and supporting for the dramas and comedies is one episode while if you were in a mini/limited series and the lead you get judged on the whole thing. Supporting in a mini/limited...one episode. That info was relayed to me via a librarian who looked some stuff up for me that I wasn't finding.
I was one of Norman Lear's gardeners at his Brentwood Estate. Awesome guy. Still at 96, he would ride around the grounds on his golf cart, bringing us lemonade or buying us all lunch. He knew we would sneak under the tennis courts to smoke a bowl and didn't care. Great guy.
I love how all 4 won it in 3 years, the shortest possible time (since Sophia was considered a supporting role)...WELL FRICKIN' DESERVED!!!! I'm so happy none of them had to Susan Lucci it!! ;D
UncleBobIsAngry Susan Lucci is an actress that was on the now ended ABC soap opera All My Children. She was nominated for 19 years in a row for Outstanding Actress in a Daytime Soap. She lost EVERY single year until they broke the streak in 1999 & she finally won. She got a 4 minute standing ovation from the crowd when she came up to accept her long awaited and VERY deserved Emmy. Her cast mates and many fans cried real tears for her because she was always an amazing actress that was so graceful, humble & classy that was too long overlooked for an award for her performances. It was an amazing show.
osimeon00 Your statement contradicts itself, because if she didn’t deserve it yet again, then she wouldn’t have won it that year. If they were working out of sympathy like you suggested, then it wouldn’t have lasted to 19 nominations in the first place...
@@FearFanatic86 Her character was popular but she wasn't a very good actress (a lot of other soap actors came from the NYC theater world.) She had been on the show for so many years and had the best name recognition so she was usually nominated. So many times it became a running joke. She was a really good sport about it and often joked about it herself, which really endeared her to the emmy voters.
I have loved Bea Arthur for years. She was the most hilarious woman I ever seen on TV. No one delivers a line like she did. I still watch the Golden girls. May she continue to R.I.P.
Betty won for Lead in 1986. Rue won for Lead in 1987. Bea won for Lead in 1988. Estelle won for Supporting the same night Bea won. These women have swept the Emmys for Actress:Comedy THREE YEARS IN A ROW!!! That is truly iconic!!! #GoldenGirlsStan
*UPDATE 2020 - Read Below* "The Golden Girls" became the second show in television history (after "All In The Family") where all of it's cast members won Emmys. It would take 15 more years before a third (live action) series would joined this exclusive club and that was "Will & Grace" in 2003. The other show were all it's cast won Emmys is the animated series "The Simpsons" bringing the grand total to four. Special mention needs to be made to the cast of "Schitts Creek" as this show swept the four main acting categories for a comedy series which no other show has EVER done. Congrats to Eugene & Dan Levy, Catherine O'Hara & Annie Murphy. And whilst there are other actors and actresses who are part of the cast, the four core characters on this show are the Rose family without whom there wouldn't be a series. So consider them the "unofficial fifth show" to join this exclusive group.
mike856ms - Both Lucille Ball and Vivian Vance won Emmy's for their work on the show. William Frawley was nominated but never won. Desi Arnaz was never nominated for his role
Julia Louis-Dreyfus has 12 lead actress comedy nominations: 5 for Christine and 7 for Veep (not even counting 7 supporting actress noms and 1 win for Seinfeld). She won 7 times for Lead Actress in a comedy.
Aww so beautiful when they announced Bea winner and Estelle hurried to give her the congrats with a kiss so lovely...that was good old television. gosh to think I was born the next year in 89.
Love Bea the best. She would have me crying from laughter. The Golden Girls was one hell of a comedy show. I purchased all the series over the past few years. Loved her in Maude also.
My all-time favorite. Watching the Golden Girls, and in particular Beatrice Arthur, has gotten me through some of the worst times in my life. What a testament to the brilliant actresses and writers who made the greatest sitcom ever.
Let me say this...All four actresses were outstanding in TGG. .For me bea arthur was the glue that held the show together. .The funniest episode of the golden palace was when she returned for a guest appearance ...the dynamic had changed and it's a pity it didn't go on for another season. .still really funny...
@BeyondEnchantment Lol, you wanna tell me Golden Palace was funny just for 2 episodes? Big no, it was funny even without Dorothy. Sure she was irreplaceable but the new characters and Blanche, Rose and Sophia really held their own without her.
Bea is very well deserving in her win. She was fantastic in the Golden Girls. She played the hell atta that character. I see you Lieutenant Columbo! Lol
Agreed. Absolutely gorgeous. I guess the beauty standards were stricter then - probably quite a bit, but as a ”traditionally feminine” short woman I still cannot understand that Dorothys/Beas looks were ”laughing stock” - she was gorgeous. I’d even say hot in her own way.
I get that it may appear that way today, but in the days of the great comedies, a joke was usually made regardless of how the person looked. It was part of the classic comedian's makeup to give and receive jibes and to be aware enough to release that it didn't matter what was said as your worth wasn't determined by other's jokes or opinions. Bea was literally stunning and she knew it. She could dish out as much as she could take. Still miss her and her unique performances.
@@PerryCJamesUK I'm not trying to express disagreement with your point, but I think I read that Bea Arthur was bothered by the jokes about Dorothy's supposed lack of attractiveness, so they toned the jokes down in the last few seasons.
@@georgeharrisonlover4300 If she asked them to tone it down, I'm glad they did. I can't see why though after all, Dorothy never really let up on Stan's appearance, Rose's intelligence or Blanche's fondness for the opposite sex. It would seem a little strange just to worry about thing and not the others. Bea was a pro and a laugh is a laugh.
I love how every year all 3 ladies were up for lead actress. I don’t believe that has ever happened since The Golden Girls. I especially love how all 4 of them won Emmys at some point. So well deserved.
When Beatrice won, i dont know why all of the emotions of her not wanting to do the show at first hit me. She made a comeback and it was her best work ever.
There's a Rue McClanahan interview on UA-cam where she explains why Bea didn't want to do the show. Originally, the producers wanted Rue to play Rose and Betty to play Blanche. Bea felt it would be like Maude and Vivian meet Sue Ann Nivens. When Bea learned who really was going to play Rose and Blanche, she changed her mind.
Love the 'Golden Girls' and besides the 'I Love Lucy" Show..they only two shows that make me laugh till I cry. So happy I can still watch the shows on TV. Rip Bea, Estelle, and Rue...but your legacy lives on.
I love Bea, Betty, Rue and Estelle. As little girl my favourite was Rose and Sophia but now as an adult rewatching the whole series I find myself loving Dorothy the best, Bea's performance was so good, so spot on, she was just perfect I'm my opinion and sooo... underrated!!
that was one of the most compelling aspects of the show IMO, they all mastered comedic timing yet had the range for the more serious or dramatic moments.
Bea Arthur was head and shoulders above the rest in terms of talent and you have no show....without her...in fact the golden girls would NOT have become a hit without her......and you can bet your life the other three who were good in their roles.....knew it!
The episode where Blanche says that the jewelry draws attention to the folds of that Turkey-like neck and Rose says the chain draws attention to the non-existent bosom, thereby Blanche says the chain leads the eye to that HUGE spare tire(her hips). Disgusted with the hurtful Dorothy remarks, "Why don't I just wear a sign that says TOO UGLY TO LIVE! HAHAHAHAHAHAUAHAHA! THAT SHIT WAS LITERALLY OFF THE CHAIN!
Anthony - I see no one answered your question, so I will. NO!!!! That outfit was Silver in color I believe, and was a Blouse and Skirt. The outfit she had on at this "Award Show" was a Dress with a Long Jacket.
She was probably thinking,OMG,it's probably going to be Betty again. I remember years ago when Bea squawked about Mary Tyler Moore getting all the awards. Golden Girls was a great show and everyone involved deserved credit.
Bea looked wonderful. This was when viewers knew all the nominees and had seen all of the shows. Now, you watch the Emmys, (IF) you watch the Emmy's most people have not even seen the shows because they cannot afford the outrageous prices for streaming and premium cable service (Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, HBO etc.) And they wonder why the ratings for the Emmy's are way down every year. They used to have the Cable ACE awards for cable programming. The Emmy's were for broadcast television. They should separate them again. Bring back the ACE awards for the premium cable programming and the streaming services and leave the Emmys for Network television.
My definition of heaven.......dying and spending eternity on set with the Golden Girls. And , there is to be tons of animals especially dogs. It can't get any better than that!
Normally as you get older you shrink but I swear I think she's taller then she was in Maude. She definitely has grown here. It's good in a way because it doesn't give that impression that she was old back then because of her tall intimating appearance, it didn't set her aside as a old women. Y'know. It was the kind of thing of 'don't mess with me' as we see her portraying her two characters and even her own self, disliking Betty white. As the early 2000s came along we most saw her as a old women but not here even though she is technically old
Rachel Fairfield I’ve only seen a handful of episodes of Maude. I was watching one last year. It was the episode when Maude and her husband were arguing while getting ready for a party. I don’t think the episode left the bedroom. Maybe it did. Anyway...when I saw Bea in lingerie...😳 I couldn’t believe it!!! To see her show herself in that way was shocking!!!

All four of The Golden Girls won Emmy's for their performances on the show and all of them fully deserved to win.
And they won three years in a row. A clean sweep!
Bea SO deserved this award.
100th thumbs up👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 👍 👍she sure did💖
She was the anchor to the comedy.

*UPDATE 2020 - Read Below*
"The Golden Girls" became the second show in television history (after "All In The Family") where all of it's cast members won Emmys.
It would take 15 more years before a third (live action) series would joined this exclusive club and that was "Will & Grace" in 2003.
The other show were all it's cast won Emmys is the animated series "The Simpsons" bringing the grand total to four.
Special mention needs to be made to the cast of "Schitts Creek" as this show swept the four main acting categories for a comedy series which no other show has EVER done. Congrats to Eugene & Dan Levy, Catherine O'Hara & Annie Murphy.
And whilst there are other actors and actresses who are part of the cast, the four core characters on this show are the Rose family without whom there wouldn't be a series. So consider them the "unofficial fifth show" to join this exclusive group.
woohooboy I love Lucy was the first.
mike856ms - Both Lucille Ball and Vivian Vance won Emmy's for their work on the show.
William Frawley was nominated but never won.
Desi Arnaz was never nominated for his role
woohooboy I recall seeing a pic of all of them each holding an Emmy. I may be wrong.
mike856ms - They may have been holding the Emmy that the show itself won for Best Comedy series in 1954
Those three shows definitely deserved it. They all had undeniable chemistry.
Bea Arthur is the second most nominated Emmy Award lead actress with 9 nominations. Mary Tyler Moore has 10.
Do you mean for comedy series? I know for sure that Angela Lansbury was nominated for all 12 seasons of MURDER, SHE WROTE.
I'm pretty sure Julia Louis Dreyfus has the most now
I think it's actually Allison Janney
I think it was Susan Lucci. For a Daytime Emmy, she was nominated 18 times starting in 1978, finally winning in 1999.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus has 12 lead actress comedy nominations: 5 for Christine and 7 for Veep (not even counting 7 supporting actress noms and 1 win for Seinfeld). She won 7 times for Lead Actress in a comedy.
it is amazing how all of them were nominated and won awards for their work.
Rest in Peace B, Rue and Estelle and more power to you Betty!
R.I.P., Betty:)

@@PerryCJamesUK I'm not trying to express disagreement with your point, but I think I read that Bea Arthur was bothered by the jokes about Dorothy's supposed lack of attractiveness, so they toned the jokes down in the last few seasons.
@@georgeharrisonlover4300 If she asked them to tone it down, I'm glad they did. I can't see why though after all, Dorothy never really let up on Stan's appearance, Rose's intelligence or Blanche's fondness for the opposite sex. It would seem a little strange just to worry about thing and not the others. Bea was a pro and a laugh is a laugh.
Bea was the Golden Girls! I just love her and may she RIP, w/ Rue & Estel. Both simply lovely.
She brought so much of herself to the characted that it felt like Dorothy was getting the award lol
Bea looks great who knew Kirstie Alley would be such a train wreck later lol
I love how every year all 3 ladies were up for lead actress. I don’t believe that has ever happened since The Golden Girls. I especially love how all 4 of them won Emmys at some point. So well deserved.
Beatrice Arthur looks so beautiful!
When Beatrice won, i dont know why all of the emotions of her not wanting to do the show at first hit me. She made a comeback and it was her best work ever.
agreed, later the producers explained they had created the character with her specifically in mind.
There's a Rue McClanahan interview on UA-cam where she explains why Bea didn't want to do the show. Originally, the producers wanted Rue to play Rose and Betty to play Blanche. Bea felt it would be like Maude and Vivian meet Sue Ann Nivens. When Bea learned who really was going to play Rose and Blanche, she changed her mind.
Love the 'Golden Girls' and besides the 'I Love Lucy" Show..they only two shows that make me laugh till I cry. So happy I can still watch the shows on TV. Rip Bea, Estelle, and Rue...but your legacy lives on.
I love Bea, Betty, Rue and Estelle. As little girl my favourite was Rose and Sophia but now as an adult rewatching the whole series I find myself loving Dorothy the best, Bea's performance was so good, so spot on, she was just perfect I'm my opinion and sooo... underrated!!
All 4 ladies gave a master class in acting on this show but Bea's comedic timing was unmatched. Talent like this is rare these days.
Dorothy was funny as hell! She’s my fav of the 3 younger golden girls with older Sophia being my joint fav.
Does any body even remember "The Days and Nights of Molly Dodd"?
I'm so glad Beatrice won an award she so deserved it....😁❤❤❤❤R.I.P. dear lady..
They won from 1986 to 1988. First Estelle and Bea, then Betty and finally, Rue. It was a Golden Girls Winning Age!
Betty, Rue, Estelle and Bea
I actually cried at this one. She literally didn’t expect this🥰🥰
Well deserved!!! RIP Queen Bea 👑
Bea DESERVED It 🙂
Bea Arthur has great acting on The Golden Girls: Season 3.
that was one of the most compelling aspects of the show IMO, they all mastered comedic timing yet had the range for the more serious or dramatic moments.
Bea Arthur was head and shoulders above the rest in terms of talent and you have no show....without her...in fact the golden girls would NOT have become a hit without her......and you can bet your life the other three who were good in their roles.....knew it!
Yes! Bea Arthur for the win. Love her so much.,
She is drop dead gorgeous. 2022 watching
Was that the outfit she wore in that one episode where Blanche and Rose were trying to make suggestions on what jewelry she should wear?
The episode where Blanche says that the jewelry draws attention to the folds of that Turkey-like neck and Rose says the chain draws attention to the non-existent bosom, thereby Blanche says the chain leads the eye to that HUGE spare tire(her hips). Disgusted with the hurtful Dorothy remarks, "Why don't I just wear a sign that says TOO UGLY TO LIVE! HAHAHAHAHAHAUAHAHA! THAT SHIT WAS LITERALLY OFF THE CHAIN!
Steve Price The look on Bea’s face as they roasted her is always worthy of a rewind or two when I watch it on dvd or Hulu! 😂
There was one episode where the outfit had a pushup bra that Dorothy wore. The correct answer is the pearls and maybe you just need a push up bra!
@@steveprice448 don't forget the line about the manly square hips. xD
Anthony - I see no one answered your question, so I will. NO!!!! That outfit was Silver in color I believe, and was a Blouse and Skirt. The outfit she had on at this "Award Show" was a Dress with a Long Jacket.
She was probably thinking,OMG,it's probably going to be Betty again. I remember years ago when Bea squawked about Mary Tyler Moore getting all the awards. Golden Girls was a great show and everyone involved deserved credit.
Bea so elegant
i love you You Ladies i miss you all golden girls is such an Amazing show that will stay in our hearts forever
I love this , bea
estelle looks so happy for her and bea is so shocked awwwww😍💖💖
You can tell they were a real (life) family. Don't ya think?
somehow appropriate that she received the final award for the show, also considering the final episode was when she got married and moved out.
NOBODY THROWS SHADE LIKE DOROTHY. this was well deserved. Kirsty didn't stand a chance.
Bea looked really stunned at winning.
And she also won for Maude in 1977
Bea looked wonderful. This was when viewers knew all the nominees and had seen all of the shows. Now, you watch the Emmys, (IF) you watch the Emmy's most people have not even seen the shows because they cannot afford the outrageous prices for streaming and premium cable service (Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, HBO etc.) And they wonder why the ratings for the Emmy's are way down every year. They used to have the Cable ACE awards for cable programming. The Emmy's were for broadcast television. They should separate them again. Bring back the ACE awards for the premium cable programming and the streaming services and leave the Emmys for Network television.
Estelle's kiss is soooo cute
Estelle was just cuteness personified! 🥰
Rue, Betty, and Bea were all nominated together for four years in a row. Betty White was nominated for every year of the show.
The Golden Girls was and is a fantastic show. They all won an Emmy at some point and they all deserved it.
I'm so glad she won!
Love ❤️ Bea.
My definition of heaven.......dying and spending eternity on set with the Golden Girls. And , there is to be tons of animals especially dogs. It can't get any better than that!
She was the heart and soul of the Golden Girls. Well deserved.
I loved this woman.
I love how Estelle Getty kisses her from behind 😊
Estelle was such a sweetheart.
Bea so deserved thjs snd she looked so beautiful
I agree. What a beautiful sensitive and elegant woman Bea was…
Brilliant actress and there was something very attractive about her.
What a classy lady!!!
Legendary actress♥️♥️
Normally as you get older you shrink but I swear I think she's taller then she was in Maude. She definitely has grown here. It's good in a way because it doesn't give that impression that she was old back then because of her tall intimating appearance, it didn't set her aside as a old women. Y'know. It was the kind of thing of 'don't mess with me' as we see her portraying her two characters and even her own self, disliking Betty white. As the early 2000s came along we most saw her as a old women but not here even though she is technically old
I can't remember where, but I did read that she got a breast reduction.
Rachel Fairfield I’ve only seen a handful of episodes of Maude. I was watching one last year. It was the episode when Maude and her husband were arguing while getting ready for a party. I don’t think the episode left the bedroom. Maybe it did. Anyway...when I saw Bea in lingerie...😳 I couldn’t believe it!!! To see her show herself in that way was shocking!!!
She was what, 63 here? That’s not really old. It’s no spring chicken but I wouldn’t call any age under 70 “old”!
She was stunning, especially here.
The other nominees who were up against any of the golden girls probably knew who will win when for 2 consecutive years the GG won.
I remember watching this show, how glad I was that now all four had won! Bea looked amazing in that dress to accept her award.

How did I know Bea was going to use the word "delicious"?
I was waiting for Peter to say: ''Oh, one more thing"
Sad they are gone except for Miss Betty White
Awesome that she thanked Norman Lear!
I really wish I could have met her and the other golden girls
Is that Lu Parker, the reigning Miss USA in the background?
Lol Cindy Lou Peeples.
Kirstie Alley? Really?? Yuck!
I second your "Yuck!", and will add my own, "Ugh!" Take her nomination away, and give it to Estelle Getty!
I never knew Kirstie was so blond. When I was little I always thought she was a dark brunette.
