Miss Chevious February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 Okay GG lovers, fasten your seatbelts and pack your lucky string bikinis! Our local TV station announced the Golden Girls Cruise departing from Miami with stops in Key West and Cozumel on February 24, 2020. They’re promising GG Trivia Games, Dance Parties, Costume Contests, etc. Sounds like more fun than a roomful of singing Elvises! Who wants to go? I’d copy and paste the link but my phone isn’t cooperating. Google www.wfla.com and add Golden Girls Cruise for the info. 1 Link to comment
BigBingerBro February 17, 2019 Share February 17, 2019 I saw an ad for that cruise. It looked more like a "Drag Queen" cruise, if anything. Nothing wrong with that, just a heads up. Link to comment
CousinOliver February 18, 2019 Share February 18, 2019 I just sent cruise info to my GG friends. We’d all like a drag queen cruise, too, so this has got to happen! 1 Link to comment

Bastet October 13, 2019 Share October 13, 2019 The Golden Girls got a shoutout from the folks at Villalobos Rescue Center; the latest episode of Pit Bulls & Parolees included footage of VRC folks setting up a room in their warehouse as a lounge in which their senior dogs can have one-on-one time hanging out with a staffer in a home-like environment. In planning to include a TV, one of them said "to show Murder, She Wrote and The Golden Girls." Needless to say, I would totally hang out in that room. 2 Link to comment

I'm thrilled to hear this, but also very surprised. After Betty's appearance at the 2018 Emmys, I figured she was probably done acting. She appeared to be struggling so much with walking and speaking. My guess is that this was specifically tailored to her needs to allow her to move as little as possible. 2 Link to comment
Miss Chevious May 16, 2020 Share May 16, 2020 Fred Willard passed away at the age of 86. We remember him as Blanche’s New Year’s Eve priest date. He was going to bring out the artist in her, but alas the date was cut short before she could use all the goodies in her toy box. RIP. Link to comment

Bastet June 23, 2020 Share June 23, 2020 I watched the PBS Betty White documentary from a couple of years ago (Betty White: First Lady of Television) on Netflix last night. It's only an hour long and it's complete hagiography, but it's charming. It's not a biography, it's a retrospective on her career (with a [very] little about her childhood, and a bit more about her relationship with Allen Ludden and her animal advocacy) -- it's really nice to see the early stuff. And to be reminded what a pioneer she was - producing her own show (on which she hired a female director), refusing demands from southern stations to ditch the black guy in order for her show to air in those markets, etc. 5 Link to comment

FormerMod-a1 July 17, 2020 Share July 17, 2020 The real house is 2,900 square feet. I don't think the GG house would have been that big, even with 4 bedrooms. At least the sets didn't look that big on my TV screen. 🙂 That said, if the Property Brothers do redo it, they have plenty of space to make all the rooms. Of course, they'll never get that wonky layout - with the kitchen opening to both the back yard and the garage, and the garage looking like it should be in the same place the bedrooms were, and so on. 2 Link to comment

I find it odd that the author thinks that Rose decided to move out after Sophia pretended to be channeling Charlie. A lot of the girls' worst behavior isn't mentioned there - like Blanche using Rose's car to intentionally cause accidents, or Sophia's treatment of "Big Sally," or Dorothy and Blanche taking Holly's side over Rose's. But I guess it would be impossible to fit all of their misdeeds into one article! 3 Link to comment

BookThief August 27, 2020 Share August 27, 2020 So Variety has ranked the top 25 Golden Girls episodes. Now, I don't remember every episode to compare in my head, but my initial response is that I'm surprised The Case of the Libertine Belle is only 16th and that Brother, Can You Spare that Jacket is on the list at all. What say you all? 3 Link to comment
