I loved the Golden Girls and Sophia (Estelle G. and Betty W. were 2 of my favorites) if you could pick just 2. I loved them all. When you have a group of women of their caliber you knew you were in for a show the entire family could enjoy. I try to catch the reruns when ever I can.
Thanxs for so many hours of laughter.

My favorite scene with Estelle Getty:

Sophia: All right, all right, I can pick up a cue. Picture it: Sicily, 1912. A beautiful young peasant girl with clear olive skin, meets an exciting but penniless Spanish artist. There’s an instant attraction. They laugh, they sing, they slam down a few boilermakers. Shortly afterwards he’s arrested for showing her how he can hold his pallet without using his hands…But I digress. He paints her portrait and they make passionate love. She spends much of the next day in the shower with a loofa sponge scrubbing his fingerprints off her body. She sees the portrait and is insulted. It looks nothing like her, and she storms out of his life forever. That peasant girl was me. And that painter was…Pablo Picasso.

Dorothy: Ma, I have a feeling you’re lying.

Rose: Be positive, Dorothy.

Dorothy: OK, I’m POSITIVE you’re lying!

-It is a shame she had to go. But I will always remember how much laughter she brought to me.

RIP Estelle

I watch the Golden Girls at 8am, 3pm and midnight! I love it, it reminds me of my Grandma who has passed away. I can be down and watch the show and feel an automatic peace and happy mood come over me. I love it!!

I have watched this show on and on and continue to watch it up to date. Not only is it hilarious, but is also heartwarming and touching. I thank the girls for this unmatched show, as well as all those who made it happen.

I am a huge fan of the Golden Girls. I watch it every day and it still makes me laugh. I also think of my late sister Gloria when I watch certain episodes.

in the last episode Dorothy told Stan that everytime she lays with Lucas there is … of him … our beds are crowded. What is that quote.

I have heard many rumors of Bea and Betty’s supposed feud. If true, does anybody know the the source of the feud, or if there is any websites out there to substantiate it? I am just very curious:)

You’re absolutely right and I knew that. They mentioned it many times. I must’ve had my own little stroke or something. Thanks for the note. I’ve made the correction.

Sophia was believed to be in the early stages of Alzheimer’s and would usually speak her mind in overly sarcastic and caustic ways.

Although Estelle may have been in the early stages of Alzheimer’s, Sophia had suffered a stroke that affected the “inhibition” part of the brain that controls and regulates what is appropriate. Hence, she made some very inappropriate, and hilarious, comments.
