I've loved this sitcom ever since I was little...so damn funny!

For some reason, I got very nostalgic last night and thought of this show, which is why I started the thread.

The 4 stars of the show are getting way up there in age, and I know Estelle Getty isn't doing well at all....and it got me thinking how sad it would be when they die.

I love them all!

A show that truly deserves every compliment!

For a bunch of women who were old in 1985, you've really got to give them credit for lasting this long. I thought they'd be about 100 by now but they're only in their 80s... Jeez! My mum's nearly 60, which must have been the age that they were when the show started. And my mum looks like she's 45.

Love Golden Girls. My mom used to let me stay up late on Sunday nights to catch reruns. My favorite by far was Sofia, she made jokes at everyone's expense. I think I read somewhere that Lifetime will not be airing anymore episodes starting in the summer. I think they said it might move to the Oxygen channel.

I love it too. Sophia is my favorite, I love her don't give a shit attitude.

Just a useless fact, but Sophia (Estelle Getty) was actually younger than Dorothy (Beatrice Arthur). Sophia was born on July 25, 1923 and Dorothy on May 13, 1922. I found it interesting. haha

Happy Birthday Dorothy Zbornack!!!

Did anyone here like the Golden Palace? It was the main characters without Dorothy.

^ I watched it because I loved Golden Girls, but I could never really get into it. For me, Sophia and Dorothy made the show what it was.

Happy belated birthday Beatrice Arthur!

Much love and happiness to you always!

And god I love Betty White too. They're all so awesome!

Anyone have a favorite episode?? Favorite character?

Hard to narrow down a favorite character for me personally, they were all so likeable in different ways.

I watch this show every chance I get!!!

My favorite is when Sophia has a nurse caring for her (can't remember why, haven't seen it in years) and Sophia, who is annoyed with Dorothy for some reason, starts referring to the nurse as "Pussycat." She then calls Dorothy "Pussycat" in front of the nurse who says, "Oh, you're 'Pussycat' too?" Dorothy turns around and says "I'm 'Pussycat I', YOU are 'Pussycat II'!"

Brilliant!
