jean safiera yep! Betty White was originally asked to read for blanches part but they asked her to switch with Rue and Rue did such an amazing job during the reading- she got the part.
Lazare Lazarov LMAO I don't remember that episode. I wanted to hear the rest of the story, and see/hear their reactions. They cut the clip too soon. They cut a lot of these clips too soon
Sometimes you get yourself a really good-looking salesman and you try to pretend you don't notice his hands caressing your calf as he tries to keep his mind on shoes, but all the time he's thinking, "Dare I peek? "Dare I look more? "Dare I look where no eyes have looked before?" And then, as he kneels there before you, little beads of perspiration breakin' out on his forehead, his breath comin' shorter and quicker, he ever so gently slips the supple leather on your quivering foot, and you achieve a perfect fit. Come on, old woman, we need shoes now!
Rue McClanahan's Blanche is comedy perfection. But then again, all four ladies were without peer. Still hilarious after all these years. Can't name another show from the past that is still wildly popular in the present.
"I waved to her with my leg over Bobby Joe's shoulder ".⛑ This must go down in history as Blanche's greatest ever line. Truly unforgettable actor and scriptwriter. Bravo!
You forgot the greatest Blanche scene. Where she describes trying on shoes at the shoe store. "Come on old woman, we need shoes NOW!" Also the "I love a tight man!" was a hilarious moment.
Let's not forget the dance marathon... Blanche: I think I've a little more endurance than you, Dorothy. Dorothy: Blanche, we are not dancing on our backs.
@@v8pwrusa818 Where Stan's brother Ted visits (that's who she's flirting with) who Dorothy always kinda "liked" but (spoiler!) it doesn't work out in the end because she finds out he's no better than Stan...she humiliates him in public at that restaurant.
The other "golden" (ha!) exchange from that episode - he's meeting the others, Rose however is low on sleep (I forget why) and while still wearing her bathrobe, says she has to go to work. Ted: "Oh, what do you do?" Dorothy (without missing a beat): "She's Gary Hart's Campaign Manager....It doesn't pay very much, but you don't have to get out of bed to do it."
I have just hit 50 & I want to go back to my 20's when these 4 women made man laugh on Friday evenings. I miss them & the endless opportunities I had before me. Raising my glass to Estelle, Rue & Bea & continued blessings to Betty. Thank you girls.
@@justacup8676 most 50 Even 60, year old women are more Blanche than any other Golden Girl! It’s not old now although teens think it’s ancient I’m only mid 30 yet kids think I’m a bloody dinosaur 😔
I’m surprised they got the cappuccino maker joke that Dorothy made to Rose about what her boyfriend has “under the sheets” past them too, didn’t realize how dirty that was until all these years later
@@lvelez1999 it’s an oral sex joke, so Bea Arthur had to clarify that the orator is the speaker and not the sexual innuendo in Blanche’s mind. It’s too funny 😂
Spark TV, like Dorothy explained, an orator is a public speaker, but Blanche thought it had something to do with oral sex (both words are derived from the Latin 'oralis'), hence Blanche assuring Dorothy that two of the commissioners would vouch for her being a wonderful orator. XD
I have such fond childhood memories of watching the Golden Girls on Channel 4 every Friday night. Only as an adult do I appreciate the subtle humour and innuendo in Rue's dialogue...sheer perfection
Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night just sweating and screaming and clawing. Like a trapped Panther. Unable to release the lust and steaming passions that constantly threatened to erupt from within me 😂😂😂
Why is it so awesome that they ALL had these wildly extroverted, separate, Distinct personalities...and all four of them NEVER outshined the other! The intricate weaving of eachvand every line, movement. stage direction literally brings me to lears with laughter the more I watch reruns. Truly. Golden Comedy
What about when Rose was telling her "Best Sex Ever" story, which involved poor Charlie dying of heart failure in the middle of it. When Blanche asked her if that was really the best sex she ever had, Rose responded: "Yes! Though I did think it was strange when he started shouting, 'Rose, I'm going! I'm going!'" XD
I loved all the Golden Girls -- Rose/Betty White, Dorothy/Bea Arthur and Sophia/Estelle Getty, but Rue McClanahan's acting as Blanche Devereaux was, for me, the best among this superlative cast. Whether she was getting steamy under the collar, or delivering a heartfelt monologue, her acting could make you laugh uproariously or drop tears of sadness. That's why Rue is one of my all-time favorite comedic actresses.
Rose: I'll get the cheesecake. Blanche: I'll get the whipped cream. Dorothy: I'll get the chocolate syrup. Sophia: I'll get the polaroid, this is a time to remember. Dorothy: Ma! You don't have a polaroid. Blanche: I'll get mine! It's under my bed. I have to go in there to get the whipped cream anyway. Lol!!
In that scene, not only is Blanche's outrage hysterically funny, but so is her question when she asked if Danny Thomas was a lesbian. I about died over that one! LMAO
Blanche: Oh, I do love the rain so! It reminds me of my first kiss. Dorothy: Your first kiss was in the rain? Blanche: No, it was in the shower. haha, the best!
Rue McClanahan was a great actress. I also loved her as Aunt Fran in Mama's Family, who was the polar opposite of Blanche--an uptight, ladylike spinster. She was so good at both roles that I often forget that it was her playing both of them.
I’m so glad she was Blanche ...she didn’t just play Blanche ...:the southern accent she added on her own made the character ...she WAS/IS Blanche. Just as Betty was rose and bea was Dorothy.
Golden Girls has made me smile again after going through a year of hell with losing my angel mom to cancer-I never thought I could even laugh again as I was just so devastated I could barely function. I bought a Golden Girls box set and not looked back I’ve laughed so much. I love these 4 funny, Beautiful girls! ♥️💜💖❤️🥰
0413dec *That* was from the episode "To Catch A Neighbor", 1987, where the two police officers (Joseph Campanella & George Clooney) used the girls' house as a base for spying on the gem-thieves who moved in next-door. It was one of my (many) favorite Blanche scenes, LOL. :-)
Ah, what a treat, what a treat. Thank you for this uplifting little montage of our favourite four elderly ladies who taught us, that growing old doesn't mean you can't have fun anymore.
Thank you so very much Jooj for this FABULOUS tribute to "Blanche"! Every clip is brilliantly funny! RIP Rue & thank you for giving the world superb acting & unforgettable & outrageous lines!! 😂
@@bekind6513Rose is talking about being “Butter Queen” in a dairy-related event at St. Olaf. However, Blanche mishears Rose and thinks she’s talking about an actress named Butterfly McQueen, who has a minor but memorable role in the film ‘Gone with the Wind.’
To think Original Rue read for the Rose Character, and Betty for Blanche , I’m so glad in the end the casting Director switched them. I can’t see Anything playing Blanche but Rue, and Betty Rose.
Blanche's southern accent is the best in season 1. By the time season 7 came around her accent was not as strong as it was in season 1, her accent became softer and not strong enough. But, I love The Golden Girls very much. People who live in the state of Georgia really do have strong southern accents. Our governor in the state of Georgia really has a strong southern accent.
Rue McClanahan's acting is SUPERB!
luna singer priceless
No one else could have played Blanche. Not even Betty, obviously.
Delana Johnson Blanche was Bettys original character if im not mistaken.
Delana Johnson That’s one thing You’ll NEVER know

Her speech comparing sex to trying on shoes should have made the list.
That is one of her greatest moments!

@@MyoclonicJerkCough i hear this

Blanche is a stunning southern belle
Blanche is indeed a stunning belle ... and Dorothy rings it!
Rue was absolutely stunning as Blanche. Gives me hope that a woman can still be sexy after fifty (I’m in my 30s but ageing is a bitch)
Rue McClanahan's Blanche is comedy perfection. But then again, all four ladies were without peer. Still hilarious after all these years. Can't name another show from the past that is still wildly popular in the present.
