Years ago, when my Grandma was sick, I would watch this show with her, and she'd laugh and laugh, which took her mind off of the pain she was in. She loved this show, and so do I.
I agree except there were times when they shut Sophia down, the best delivered by Blanche. When she called Sophia Yoda and when she popped her balloon.
@@rippingtons60 sadly from what I’ve read she had terrible stage fright and anxiety that progressively got worse through the show run. She needed cue cards and couldn’t remember her lines well due to the stress.
@@alexb7065 It wasn't stage fright so much as she had memory issues (though I'm sure fright/anxiety came of that). I believe dementia was setting in at this point in her life :(
"Over easy." is delivered with such naturalness that it's like it's not even a rehearsed line, just something ad-libbed on the spot. Estelle Getty had great comedic timing.
The best Sophia-to-Blanche insult is when Blanche mentions possibly having another baby and Dorothy scoffs “wait a couple of years and Medicare will pay for it” - then Sophia says “why wait? Have it now and the [National] Enquirer will pay for it” 😂👏
This is why any attempt to "reboot" this series is a waste of time! This was a true example of a "lightening in a bottle" casting that can never be reproduced in any way!
They will never ever be able to pull that off, you can never hold a candle to a classic like GG, the attempt would be rather embarrassing and an epic failure
@@brandonallen3289 oh mine too! She told me when I was 13 I had a nose like Barry Manilow..meant to be a joke because I was so vain sometimes.. but omg it stung 🙁 loved her though and miss her every day.
You forgot the best line “Hey P-Fiffer, how’d you like a punch in the p-face”? Sofia asks of the funeral director when shopping for a casket for the mean next door neighbor that just died .
Well...I hope I become just like Sophia when I'm older. Cause my name's Sophia and it would be awesome! I already got Dorothy's sarcasm,so I hope I get Sophia's savageness
SHout out to how dominant this show was also. It was the norm for them to have two or more nominated for awards in the same categories. One year Betty, Rue and Estelle were nominated for the same emmy, I believe Rue won!
The three won. Betty in 86 for the first season, Rue in 87 for the second and Bea in 88 for the third, the same year in which Estelle won in supporting. And when Betty, Rue or Bea won, the other two were nominated as well.
All four actresses won an Emmy for Golden Girls. All in the Family and the Mary Tyler Moore show are the only other two where every actor won an Emmy for that show. Betty White was part of two of those three, too.
Sophia: Arrested For Prostitution, I Can't Believe It Blanche: Sophia, We're Innocent Sophia: I Know That, I Can't Belive These Dumb Cops Would Think Anyone Would Pay Money To Sleep With You
My favorite is when blanche was telling rose about sex after the passing of her husband because rose was seeing a guy and he wanted to take it to the next level. Sophia is right there and goes "oh please blanche, you waited till the paramedics came then jumped to the next guy" and I choked on my spit 😂💀💀
Best comedy show of all time. Included all genders races sexualities etc. WITHOUT being preachy or phony. True HUMOUR. like its supposed to be. You can't joke about anything these days, I say this as a gay man. I hate it. Sophia ripped them apart with humour, but she truly cared and loved them. Thats what society nowadays needs to learn. This show is more important than people realise
This is my absolute go to show when I'm looking for something and can't find anything to watch, if it's on the TV when I walk by I sit down and watch it, if I'm flipping through channels and see it I watch it. Love those ladies!💕🥰
#1 has always made me laugh so hard. I've said it before, but it's so hilarious that Dorothy doesn't even flinch when Blanche pops the balloon. I also love #34. #30, 29, 28, 24, 6, and 5 are also awesome.
I would go to my Grandma's after school and we would always watch this show. She would laugh but I never understood the jokes. Now I completely get it and it's hilarious.
Years ago, when my Grandma was sick, I would watch this show with her, and she'd laugh and laugh, which took her mind off of the pain she was in. She loved this show, and so do I.
I’m sorry to hear about your grandmother, but I’m glad you two were able to enjoy this show together
❤❤
If she has passed, I give respect to her, she sounded like such a wonderful person, I hope she is resting easily with Betty.
@@basicallystupid7080 Thank you. That means a lot!
I used to watch this show with my Grandma as well. Here's to your Grandmother, cheers and G-d bless.
“Don’t worry Blanche, the dress covers most of it” and “You’d kill your sister over a pamphlet?!” - golden savagery! 😂
The pamphlet line kills me!
I love those ones. I watch her after I watch a scary movie. Always makes me feel better!
The way I burst out laughing when she said .....a pamphlet! She did not play with Dorothy
Classic bitchery hahahahahahaha
“Rose Nylund?”
“No and if I start acting like her, Pull the Plug!” 😂😂😂😂😂 BEST ONE
The writers on this show were comedic geniuses! 😂
Betty White continues to say the it was the writers who deserve the credit for The Golden Girls success!
The writers were definitely genius 🤣🤣
Most of her lines were improvised
"Thank you, you bed hopping relic." 😂😂
*POP! * 😂
Definitely my favorite line when it comes to insults.
My favorite
@@Torfindra 😂😂😂
@@cyrusnoble462 yep
This is why she is the #1 best thrower of shade in the history of television.
Her and al bundy
And Dorothy as well
@@renroxhrd I think Niles from the Nanny is another excellent thrower of shade.
@@renroxhrd grace
Thelma Harper is the best thrower of shade by far
I love how she doesn't even spare her own daughter 😂
She went hard on Dorothy!
Just like a real mother
💀💀💀💀
The same here
Dorothy got the worst of it.
"Thank u ,you human mattress"💀😂DAYYUMM
I died
😂😂😂😂
Funny stuff.!
OOOHHH!!! BURN!!!
😂
Sophia remarks was so savage that most of the time the girls can't even return the insult...
except blanche but only a few times
You're right, but I love it when Blanche fires back. "I'm sorry. I thought since you looked like Yoda, you were also wise."
I agree except there were times when they shut Sophia down, the best delivered by Blanche. When she called Sophia Yoda and when she popped her balloon.
@@partyguy101ify I didn’t see your response til after I wrote mine. We said the same thing! Lol. That yoda remark was priceless...
@@kimayapanash8998 except Dorothy plus Dorothy’s threats of Shady Pines
“Excuse me but have I gave you any indication that I care?” 😭😂😂
Sophia Petrillo is nothing but queen of insults
I laugh so hard i can't breathe
World Empress- get it right!
I'd like to see her go head to head, snark to snark against Stantler and Waldorf.
And stories
Sophia is a boss
I love it when Sophia and Dorothy give a mother daughter one two punch.
I like when they make up, too
Dueces
I love Sophia Estelle Getty played the shit out of this role
YES SHE DID!!
She was absolutely a legend!!
I bet she had the time of her life.

Me too 😂😂😂😂
It’d be way crueler if it’s the universe she quoted
*hieves, and that's one of my favorite

“You’re only going to sit in an inch of water?” Should’ve been number 1
Hands down!!
They should've let that scene run longer because Blanche says "see you at midnight, for dessert" Sophia: "There's always room for Jello" lol!
🥇🏆🥇🏆🤣🤣🤣
😆😆😆

@Ashton Foley seriously
Love Sofia she’s had no filter
Love soaring she had on fitre
She me reminds me of grandmother. The minute she turned 70 her filter was gone.

She’s hilarious.
Blanche:"I tried quitting sex"
Dorothy: "well, obviously you fell off the wagon".
Sophia: "and on to a naval base"
This is one of my favorite lines🤣
Why I never get tired of watching the Golden Girls?
Here's to 35 more years of laughter. Thanks TV Land! 🍾 🍾 🍾
Same here! I love this show. 🤣🤣🤣
It never gets old for me love it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love them
I never get tired either, I just love it!!!
I cant pick a favourite because they're all great. I love Dorothy's sarcasm, Rose's ditsy sweetness, Blanche's confidence and Sophia's savage wit.
the compilation this year needed 😆
I know right.
Totally!
Love the line you’re only gonna sit in an inch of water?
My fave!
😂😂😂
"You're only going to sit in an inch of water" 💀💀💀💀💀
Who wouldn't want Sophia as their sarcastic Sicilian grandma? She's got the sass and the best comebacks for everything.
The mothers of shadiness.
"I think there's a connection between your brain and wallpaper paste!"
😂😂The woman I aspire to be in my old age
Sophia is really my spirit animal lol
I hope to have her attitude when I’m older! 🙌🏻
Katty perry didn't roar sophia growled I never been physcoanalyzied by a dipstick before finally now we can break out that champine we've been saving
Sophia had the best quotes and her timing was spot on!
“Like you don’t shovel it in by the pound every chance you get”😂😂😂
Painfully funny quote.
You forgot the best line “Hey P-Fiffer, how’d you like a punch in the p-face”? Sofia asks of the funeral director when shopping for a casket for the mean next door neighbor that just died .
OMG I remember that line! Loved that episode, makes me laugh
These gals were all so incredibly great, combined with phenominal writings, that even small segments are entertaining.
“Just so embarrassed to be seen in this old thing”
“Don’t worry blanch, the dress covers most of it”
😆😂 my favorite one
Dorothy didn't get enough and Blanche got too much. Sophia lit them both up! 🤣🤣🤣
And the world heaves a collective sigh of relief
Plese TV Land, do the same for Dorothy, Blanche and Rose. It should be a riot.
Can't believe 35 years have gone by. Forever golden!
Thanks TV Land. 🤗
"Pivot my stomach to the porcelain of the bowl..." will be forever my favorite line of hers.
Ummm not pivot,
I thought
FROM THE PIT OF MY STOMACH TO THE PORCELAIN OF THE BOWL.......
@@alysononoahu8702 That makes more sense actually lol
"Nobel price for miracles" got me good 😆
Blanche : i tried quitting sex

Count me in.
Yes!!!!
I aspire to be like Sophia, even though I’m a teenager
@@punkrockjoanofarc Shouldn't be too hard, sarcasm is 80% of the job description.
I nearly died laughing at the episode where SP called Blanche a “50 year old mattress” because they were in competition dating the same older man 🤣🤣🤣

"You'd kill ya sista over a pamphlet?" Gotta love Sophia! 🤣🤣🤣
When people ask me where my sense of humour comes from...
When Sophia said self basting turkey lurkey 😂😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️😂
And this is why we adore Sophia. Calls it like it is but will always be there for you when you need her.
Going into 2022 and I can't get enough of Dorothy and Sophia! A classic to say the least.
Sophia: Arrested For Prostitution, I Can't Believe It
Blanche: Sophia, We're Innocent
Sophia: I Know That, I Can't Belive These Dumb Cops Would Think Anyone Would Pay Money To Sleep With You
Dorothy literally clutched her pearls when she said that.
Jajajajajaja
My mom thought that was the funniest thing ever. She was drinking soda at the time.
Sophia:” Don’t you ‘Ma’ me, you cheap floozy!”🤣🤣🤣
They’re all together in heaven now 💕
Sophia and Dorothy were my two favorite characters on The Golden Girls. I swear I have the same personality as both of them.
I'm dorothy with a smattering of rose
Mine too.
I’ve come to accept that Sofia is my spirit animal.😂😂😂.
She was the reason I watched the show, she's too funny 😂
Thank goodness I lived in the time when the Golden Girls was on. One of a hand full of truely brilliant television.
Her burns are epic and always hilarious, but she was beautiful in that red dress. Thank you, TV Land
Maybe if Sofia insulted 2020 and hurt it's feelings it would go away
My favorite is when blanche was telling rose about sex after the passing of her husband because rose was seeing a guy and he wanted to take it to the next level. Sophia is right there and goes "oh please blanche, you waited till the paramedics came then jumped to the next guy" and I choked on my spit 😂💀💀
Dorothy: How long did you wait after George died?
Sophia: Til the paramedics came
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I could look at them all day... They are the definition of brutal/loving honesty🤣🤣
Man: I thought i felt my ears burning
Sophia: Maybe that cheap toupee youre wearing retains heat😂💀💀💀💀👏🏽
That was Stan, Dorothy's ex husband
Sophia is the Greatest Elder Lady in the Show.
I absolutely loved this show growing up!! I loved the cast, the humor, everything was fantastic!!
Blanche "I treat my body like a temple open day or night"- sophia never holds back🤣🤣
'over-easy', cold-blooded sniper Sophia 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The "try some" scene gets me EVERY TIME 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have not watched another show with as many and as scathing one-liners.
This is the absolute gold standard ❤
"You talk like this on dates, don't you" will never be beaten. Simple but perfect.
Loved this show. And love the Golden Girls.

In stitches🤣
every line, iconic. golden girls forever!
Classic Sofia, you can't stop her from speaking her mind.
When you're her age anything goes lol love Sophia
When you have as much wisdom as Sophia, speaking your mind is a God-given right!
How this group got through any scenes together without cracking up is beyond me!
Oh i think they had many takes because they were laughing.
Many takes, probably. lol
Specially the herring war one!😂😂😂😂😂
This is my absolute go to show when I'm looking for something and can't find anything to watch, if it's on the TV when I walk by I sit down and watch it, if I'm flipping through channels and see it I watch it. Love those ladies!💕🥰
I keep watching this over and over again and I have no idea how the girls were able to keep a straight face 😂😂
Arrested for prostitution, I can't believe it!
There was no doubt Sophia calling Blanche a "bed hopping relic" would be #1! 😂😂😂
Savage! Love Sophia!
Hey beautiful 🌹 how's it going ?
I haven’t laughed so hard in ages!! This video is gold!! And Sophia will forever be the best Golden Girl
4 gets me every single time 🤣
"You're Only Gonna Sit In An Inch Of Water??"
I never get tired of watching this show!
She's on fire💥💥💥💥💥!!!!
"How are they prepared?"
"overeasy"
#1 has always made me laugh so hard. I've said it before, but it's so hilarious that Dorothy doesn't even flinch when Blanche pops the balloon. I also love #34. #30, 29, 28, 24, 6, and 5 are also awesome.
RIP Betty White. You will be dearly missed.
When Blanche popped the balloon....🤣🤣🤣🤣
No one can ever replace her!
Nobody can ever replace the Golden Girls, talented gifted women resting in Heaven!
"Rose Nylund?"
"No but if I ever start acting like her PULL THE PLUG!"
The woman has her priorities straight alright!
The BEST comedy to come out of the USA. Needs a re-run in the UK!
Channel 5 started rerunning GG but just up to S4 I believe
From what I understand; there was a British version of "The Golden Girls" that aired in 1993 called "The Brighton Belles."
@@michaellovely6601 theres a good reason why that show was never heard of compared to the legendary rep of Golden Girls.
The full series is on Disney+ in the UK
Sophia was SUPER SAVAGE, on one liners and come backs! 😀😅😄😆😂🤣 lol!!! Thank you Golden Girls, for just being a Friend!!! 😊👍
Just smiling at this and thinking of my Grandma🥲 it was the 6 year anniversary of her death last week and watching this made me feel relief 💘
"I think there's a connection between your brain and wallpaper paste"😂😭😭✋️
Sophia was the best. But blanche got her back one time when she said she looks like Yoda. Lmaoooo
"I'm sorry rose, have i given any indication at all that i care"
I'm waiting to use that one 😆
"And on to a navel base!" is so underrated!
Live under this!!! I died 🤣🤣🤣🤣😛
Estelle is such a fantastic actor I love her so much
