agonyI just watched "Golden Girls" for the first time.
And I'm shocked at how good it is.
I don't do the sitcom thing, but this is sitcom perfection.
Well-defined characters with perfect symbiosis. Very well-written.
Good stuff, I'll have to check if the complete series is available on Netflix.

dkjbamaI'll admit I like it a bit. My 75 year old yankee babysitter got me hooked on it when I was just a little kid. Estelle Getty MAKES that show.

Balzé HalzéMy brother, sister, and I (along with our mom, of course) had watched it quite a bit growing up. It seriously made us laugh. Yeah, good show.

PASigWelcome to 1985!
Have you heard about this new cutting edge tech called a "compact disc"? It's going to revolutionize the music industry I hear.

iron chefHBO took
Golden Girls, cast a slightly younger cast and set it in NYC. Their remake is called
Sex in the City. You might give that one a try too.

I watched Sex in the City when it first ran. It was okay.

Right. God forbid you didn't watch every program ever since the mid 80s.

Saved By the Bell existed until the mid-90's when I caught them in re-runs. Completing that was difficult pre-Hulu.

agonyThe entire series is on Hulu.
I watched the pilot last night.
I figured Sophia was just a bitter old lady.
Turns out she had a stroke and can't process politeness properly and blurts out whatever comes to mind.

egregoreOnly one of the Golden Girls (Betty White) is still living.
As the CUT I chose for myself befits, I liked Bea Arthur's sarcasm.

Ha! She was a woman who would better be described as handsome rather than pretty, but she was quite elegant.
