The Benjamin story was Rue Mclanahans finest hour! She sold that brilliantly. They do a disservice by not showing Dorothy's response. Her reference to Ghandi was equally hilarious.

@@C_Steele81 The way Blanche is telling the story it sounds as if the young man she was secretly seeing was Black (she said "Certain people were not to mix" which makes most people think of Whites/Blacks and the racism against 'race' mixing the South is notoriously known for). Instead, she reveals he was from New Jersey, i.e., he was a Northerner or Yankee. It's a double-meaning kind of story because she's implying that it would have been okay if Benjamin was Black, but being a Yankee was utterly shocking. The whole thing is ridiculous, of course, and that's why it's so funny.
Sal M Blanche is from the southern state. His date was from a northern state. South calls the north a yankee. It’s a derogatory term I believe for those who live in the north states.
When I first watched this scene years ago, I thought at first the joke was that he was from Jersey (having lived in NYC it's seen as a joke). But then Blanche exclaimed he was a Yankee. Lol
I grew up looking at the golden girls as an adult when things get worst than bad I cuddle with one of the episodes and the theme sound make me feel the world still has warmth
Rose: “I’m really no good at listening to people’s problems” Dorothy: “you’re a grief counsellor, it’s what you do for a living” Rose: “I know but I have the highest suicide rate in the office” 🤣🤣
Blanche was WAAAY too shallow to connect with a Black Man. Then again, she probably would have IF.....doing so was "en vogue" enough. She was full of HOT AIR!!!
*Cocoa Femme* in the episode where Dorothy's son is engaged to an older black woman, it is implied that Blanche has been intimate with black men. Sophia asks the woman's mother and aunts if it's true what they say about black men in bed. Blanche starts to say, "Oh, yes, definitely..." until she realizes everyone is watching her, so she changes is to "Oh, yes, definitely that's something I'd like to know about, too."
@@musicaltheatergeek79: Were you disagreeing with something I posted? Just because Blanche made that remark, does not make her an authority on that situation.
Cocoa Femme Shallow or not, if it was an attractive man, Blanche was on board no matter what his race was. There's nothing to imply she had a racial preference or lack of it.
"I went to my senior prom with a Yankee." - Blanche "What are you gonna to do with yours?" - Blanche "It's a log. I'm gonna burn it!" - Dorothy 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
One scene - Blanche says she's never been with a married man another scene - Blanche freaks out when Dorothy wakes her up by saying "My wife will be home any minute"
Yes and Rue had it written in her contract that she got to keep whatever outfits from the show she wanted and she kept nearly all of the nightgowns and robes. She certainly had a flair for fashion and acting. I miss her...
1:59 Blanche is like oh I've never been with married men yet in another clip to wake her Dorothy puts on a man's voice and says #my wife will be home any minute# Blanche wakes up fast and is looking for her shoes. So she has been with married men
It's the difference between fantasy and reality. She can fantasize about whatever she wants, but she doesn't act on those desires in real life because she thinks it's immoral. That's pretty awesome.
In "'Twas the Nightmare Before Christmas," it is implied that the Santa (aka Ed Cleckner) who Blanche was going to hook up with was married. After Rose interrupts them, she asks him, "What would Mrs. Claus say?" And Dorothy goes, "Not to mention, Mrs. Cleckner!"
My theory although could he wrong, is that she got scared because the man didn’t tell her he was married, however the original theory of it being because she didn’t want to get caught makes slightly more sense, this goes with the information we’re given
Ah, the first scene in this clip is the one (in the blooper reels available) where Bea Arthur screwed up her lines and Betty gleefully proclaimed "Bea screwed up!"
@@yikes4946 well.. no yikes .. that's not true.. chad spelled with no 'e' on the end.. so Blanche didn't say "I went to my senior prom with a yank".. she said "i went to my senior prom with a yankee".. there's a big difference.. watch it again, you'll see
The whole Bwnjamin scene 😂 She went to the prom with a yankee plus Ben wasnt black, but why did she mention those things that have nothing to do with like "taboo to be mix or bigots.." i cant with Blanche😂
My Grandma, Mother and myself thought Beatrice Arthur was wonderful and still do. My "Baba" would copy B.A.'s hairstyles throughout the 80's at least. 💙
The 80s had some hideous style moments, but I loved how the 'girls' dressed (most of the time). I especially loved the flowing peignoir sets Blanche wore.
(Dorothy asks Blanche to take her boring ex husband out for dinner as he's sad) Blanche: "Absolutely not" Dorothy: "I'll give you my cashmere sweater" Blanche: "No" Dorothy: "I'll give you my channel perfume" Blanche: "No" Dorothy: "I'll introduce you to all of Jeffery's naval officer friends, some of them have been at sea for over six months" (Blanche immediately tells Stan to get ready, as she'll take him out for dinner)

'don't make fun of your mother if I didnt' wake up tomorrow you'd never forgive yourself.' 'I'll risk it!' hysterical! when sitcoms were actually funny!
"Rose, you're a grief counsellor." Rose responds, "but I have the highest suicide rate in the office." Blanche's response: "I went to my senior prom with a Yankee! 😂😂😂

I love the way they'd sit around the table at night. Talking, shari g their hopes dreams, disappointments, sorrows, problems. In their night clothes. Eating. Crying, laughing. It was so comforting to watch & know they were really family, they were there for each other. No matter what happened, they were there for each other.
Oh it's a log in going to burn it 💀💀💀 if you find my body in rigamortis.....just know I went laughing to death from watching these ladies read each other like vogue to carrie bradshaw

Off topic but I love Blanches nightgowns
Thank God, I'm not the only one 🙌 Especially, those satin n lace ones.
I love it, reminds me of my mother 💞
And she actually got to keep all of them.
I love when she walks through the house and they flow...and the sound of her shoes or whatever she's walking in... Such grace and class.
They should do a video one with just Blanche's nightgowns...!!!

I lost it at 1:21 "some of them have been in sea for more than 6 months"
lol I dont understand the joke
Amanda it means high chance that Blanche has slept with some of them yet since they are out of the country.
I don’t think so. I think it means that they would be really horny and we all know that Blanche is sexually active.
