Launched during the neon-lit 1980s, The Golden Girls shed light on a side of Miami ignored by Miami Vice. In other words, no drugs, no murder–just four women of “a certain age,” spending their golden years in the sun. Like the theme, “Thank You for Being a Friend,” the long-running sitcom was about friendship (not crime). As for the “girls,” they were tart-tongued Dorothy (Beatrice Arthur), former farm girl Rose (Betty White), Southern belle Blanche (Rue McClanahan), and Dorothy’s salty Sicilian mother Sophia (Estelle Getty). All were widows, with the exception of the divorced Dorothy. Created by Emmy-winning producer Susan Harris (Soap), The Golden Girls re-ignited the careers of 1970s TV veterans Arthur (All in the Family, Maude) and White (The Mary Tyler Moore Show). At the same time, it made stars of McClanahan (who co-starred on Maude), by playing a comic version of A Streetcar Named Desire’s Blanche Dubois, and the scene-stealing Getty, made to look older than her actual age (she and Arthur were born the same year).
Notable guests to lend their talents to the first season include Star Trek: Voyager’s Robert Picardo (”The Operation”), Alice’s Polly Holliday (”Blind Ambitions”), and WKRP in Cincinnati’s Gordon Jump (”Big Daddy”). In addition, Harold Gould (Rhoda), who appears in “Rose the Prude,” would return as a (different) recurring character five years later.
The Golden Girls ran for seven seasons and spawned spin-off The Golden Palace (without Arthur) and a British version called The Brighton Belles. By the end of its run in 1992, it had garnered numerous awards, including two Emmys for best comedy series. In addition, each of the four actresses received a well-deserved Emmy for her efforts. –Kathleen C. Fennessy

Just what I needed! I’m a “Golden Girl” too! this arrived just before I had planned surgery so the timeing was perfect to lift my spirits during recovery. Laughter is the best medicine & this was better than anything the doctor ordered. (Although it did keep me in stitches. lol)
These shows are timeless. As good today as when they aired. I know they are on cable, but I like to watch something funny before bed each night - & if I’m in the mood or can’t sleep, I can watch as many as … Read More

- Four friends, and lots of laughs
Estelle Getty, Bea Arthur, Betty White and Rue McClanaghan star as four older women, sharing a house — and all sorts of adventures — in 1980’s Miami.
Naive Rose (White) and sarcastic Dorothy (Arthur) first came together with Blanche (McClanaghan) upon answering her ad for roommates. Soon after, tiny octogenarian Sophia (Getty) — Dorothy’s mother — joins them after a fire breaks out at her nursing home.
Together, the quartet deal with trouble from visiting relatives … Read More
