I restarted the entire series a few weeks ago from start to finish. I’ve seen each episode at lease a hundred times, and each time I watch there’s something new. As I mature (43 now divorced from a cheating spouse of 18 years) certain things hit differently.
I feel you on things hitting different
That's what I love about GG. There are so many great life lessons woven into the wit and humor and St Olaf stories.
Agreed!
That's right Courtney. I get so excited when I see your videos on my notifications. The Golden Girls really taught some of us younger women at the time some valuable lessons. Now, that I am their age, I reflect on the show a lot. Oh man. Blanche's to do list. LOL.
♥️♥️ I feel you on that. Thank you!
I watched this show as a child I'm 40 now and I continue to learn lessons from this show. Especially When I was in my late teens and early 20's. The amount of crap I avoided was uncanny due to this show. They need to add this to the Ciriculim! When I offer advice to my friends I always start with "on an episode of the golden Girls" much like back in st.Olaf! Lol 😂
♥️♥️
Sorry, but it is impossible to "Stay Golden"... Those wonderful girls surpassed the Golden stage, all though the Platinum Stage, and are now Diamond Girls! 😂 But they will always stay funny! Forever! ❤️
Understood
Courtney, my dear, have you considered a video showcasing the same actor on GG reincarnated as a different character? For example, Dorothy's father, (Sal) was also the court jester/waiter when Dorothy and Uncle Lucas, (Lesley Nielson) visited the medieval themed restaurant. Freda Claxton returned as the wife of the couple from Italy who thought Dorothy was their real daughter. There are many others.
It's something I would likely do after getting through the golden grades. Going back to revisit those types of things in the show. I agree it's a solid topic and a lot there
2:16 Rose wants polyamory but is in denial? It’s a theory at this point.
Interesting
Kirsten was very wrong about the Girls only sharing a house. They shared so many stories, so many ups and downs. They really did share their lives. They were most definitely family.
Agreed!!!
I personally love That Was No Lady because of the dimension of character. Dorothy showed she just wants that perfect love the other three got to experience. Rose is normally the emotionally sensitive one, but here she put her foot down. Blanche is normally the judgemental one, but here she's sensitive and understanding. Sophia showed she's a tough mother, but it's out of genuine concern for Dorothy's happiness.
I agree with you there!
Yay! It’s my favorite when Stay Golden publishes a new video. Great topic too! :-)
💚 why thank you.
The Urge to not be a Doormat is difficult for some of us.
I feel you. It's not easy and so much has been structured and taught to girls to make them feel this
@@StayGoldenGirls The girls, gays and theys.
❤️❤️❤️
Hi Courtney, great video 👍
Hellllllo
Interesting topics of discussion
♥️
There is something I'm going to say, separate from my first comment. Yeah, I know, David, shut up...(said like Rose) When the other lady played Kirsten in the second to the last episode, I thought where was the first one? It turned out she was under a conflicting contract with another studio production she was working on. She seemed a bit out of place. However, the speech she gives about how they weren't family didn't fit in with the second time when the first one appeared. She stated fully that they were like a functioning family. I believe it was around the time that her daughter was putting on makeup. So, yeah, maybe it was a good thing that they had another lady play Kirsten in her final appearance.
Good point!
@@StayGoldenGirls And, thanks for these, they are very good presentations. All of them.
❤️❤️❤️
My wife and I just had our second child, we named her Sophia Estelle. Elizabeth Rose was also high in our list.
Aww how lovely congratulations
This was great fun! 👏🏽
Noice
This is a great series sitcom! I love this show!
❤️❤️❤️
HOLY CRAP!!! I MET YOU JUST TODAY!!! YOU ARE INCREDIBLE!
Very kind of you.
Hi Courtney and crew!
I relate a lot to Rose’s goodness, maybe it is one of my biggest faults in life, I care and want to make sure others are taken care of; before my own well being. I love meeting new people and understanding their own experiences to shape who they are. Why I love community service, although this hasn’t helped during the current pandemic. This also follows the current of loneliness. Both intertwined in some aspects of modern life.
Great video!
Being a caretaker type is that fine line, I hear you on that and certainly never okay for being taken advantage. Pandemic sure did screw up so much, I finally just got back to volunteering again so I hope that unlocks for you soon too
Hey, that super handsome Dorothy's dude is Mo Greene, no joke!!! ;)
:)
Hello, Courtney! Did you get watch Golden Girls 3033 cartoon?
I have it on my to do list for this weekend! Thanks again for sharing it. I really had no idea it was out in the world.
@@StayGoldenGirls No problem. Let me know when you review the Golden Girls 3033 cartoon for us after this.
Deal.
Did you make a list about what you consider the biggest continuity blunders of Golden Girls? If so, link me? If not, maybe you should consider making one! uwu
Not yet but I like that I idea and adding it to the list!
I don't have a favorite. I think i love every episode.
❤️💯
I have an idea for a video. The best jokes from episodes that were kinda dull overall. For example, I’m watching “Blanche Delivers.” Not in the top ten, but it’s got “Knocked up and single. How dainty, The luge is the only one where you get to lie on your back, and Took me 3-1/2 days to have Dorothy. I finally coaxed her out with a pork chop.”
And “They’re just gonna nag you and nag you, until you wanna choke’ em but you CAN’T, Because there is resuscitating EQUIPMENT!”
Nice
and Betty outlived about 4/5 of the complete cast, which is both humorous and sad in a way
Indeed
👋🏽 What's that tattoo on your arm?
It's from Edith Wharton's age of innocence
"We can't behave like people in novels though, can we?"
@@StayGoldenGirls Book quote... cool
Why thank you.
@@StayGoldenGirls 😋🙂
❤️❤️
I love the golden girls, and i am perfectly capable to understand what it is about, also the less obvious motives. I don’t need or like the explanation. When i am into a scene and enjoying it, you cutting it off to give your insights is really disturbing to me.
Then watch a different video. That's literally the point of this video series
Omg you ruined it 😢 WTH is wrong with you ?
Ruined what?
