    What's funny is that in real life, Sofia (Estelle Getty) was younger than both Dorothy (Bea Arthur) and Rose (Betty White).

    I am a Veteran Marine who played professional Rugby, grew up on a farm, and worked all sorts of manly construction jobs... The Golden Girls is easily in my top ten of all time. It is just so hilarious. Thats what makes it so good. It can be enjoyed by every body, even brutish ogres like myself.
    The show also addressed racism, bigotry, sexism, ageism, and politics. Way ahead of it's time.

    My all-time favorite show. They were for sure ahead of their time. Total savagery. Dorothy and Sophia were the best. You should do the Dorothy one.

    Golden Girls was DEFINITELY ahead of its time. Though a comedy, they tackled issues such as euthanasia, gay marriage, health care for the elderly, sexual issues for older women, alzheimer's, cancer, etc......and they did it with humor and compassion.

Smart ,witty dialogue with another talented cast!!! Julia Sugarbaker is right there with Sophia with the zingers!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

    Dorothy's sarcasm is brutal. Like mother like daughter (Sophia) lol. Some fun trivia: Estelle Getty was 62 when the show premiered which was 17 years younger than her character and one year younger than Bea Arthur and Betty White.

      She never said she was 79 in one episode.

    • @Onetigerl
      @Onetigerl 2 дня назад

      @@jartober In the season 2 episode "A Piece Of Cake" they mentioned that Sophia celebrated her 50th birthday in April 1956 meaning that her character was 79 at the time of that episode. Aside from that episode you can look up that the ages of the Golden Girls characters are decided by the creators and writers of the show. Or simply look up how old they were in real life compared to their characters.

      @Onetigerl I don't think you understand the level of fandom I have with the Girls. There's nothing I don't know.
      Your post is not clear. Are you saying Sophia was 79 in 1985? That is "technically "correct... but she also says 80 and other random ages throughout the shows 7 year run. Nothing ever adds up. Such as Dorothy's grandmother's age .
      Also, Sophia had Dorothy at 25.
      Don't come for me. Lol.

    I love Estelle Getty is one of the few comedians that hammered through the live studio audience laughs. A great example is at the 4:00 mark. Estelle raises her voice to get up over the audience laughs twice to finish the bit. The art-form is probably lost but Estelle Getty was an expert.

    Watched this all the time as kid. Such an awesome lineup. Empty Nest (LOVE RICHARD MULLIGAN), then Golden Girls. My gram was Sophia, just from Texas not Italy 😊❤😄

    • @LilRocker2005
      @LilRocker2005 4 дня назад

      Empty Nest was actually a spin off of "Golden Girls" based on the season 2 finale, and another show, called "Nurses" spun off from that. Cast members from "Golden Girls" appeared on both shows, and they had a couple of crossover events where all 3 shows were tied together for a particular event, like the hurricane in season 7 where Estelle Getty appeared on Empty Nest and Betty White appeared on Nurses that same night

    Sophia character storyline was an amazing concept from the very beginning of the series... Sophia came from Shady Pines a retirement home Dorothy place her in after she suffered a stroke that destroyed the part of the brain that controlled her speech and how she communicate, in other words she don't think before she speaks so it comes out like word vomit.. There has never been another character like that ever on TV.. Estelle Getty nailed this role, I can't imagine anyone else playing Sophia..

    Hello fellas' I thought I'd suggest a couple of artists to give a listen, if interested. "Roberta Flack & Peabo Bryson - The Closer I Get To You" (by the channel: akayshia) --Roberta Flack is an American singer/songwriter who came to fame during the early 70's. She was discovered singing in a jazz club in Washington D.C. She produced several big hit singles. Les Macan the guy that discovered her said, (and I'm paraphrasing here) but he said, "Her voice touched, tapped and trapped you, while stirring every emotion in you along the way," and I would totally agree with that statement. lol Maybe you'll give it a listen and see if you agree. And If I may be so bold as to leave another suggestion to give a listen, if interested. "Bee Gees - Our Love (Don't Throw It All Away) (Live In Las Vegas, 1997 - One Night Only)" (by the channel: beegees) --This song was a big hit for both the Bee Gees as well as their younger brother Andy Gibb because he also included it on his second album "Shadow Dancing". It was written by Barry Gibb and Blue Weaver and recorded in 1977 during the "Saturday Night Fever" sessions but wasn't released until they released "Bee Gees Greatest Hits" in 1979. And as always, I enjoyed hanging out and rocking with you. Thanks for sharing.
