Sophia was the true definition of a savage. Her comebacks/insults were pure comedy genius.

And the great things about Sophia's character was that, while the other three girls were intentionally taking jabs at each other and knew when to let things drop, Sophia didn't have the same filter. Sophia is in the early stages of dementia, and she no longer has any filter whatsoever; every thought that she has comes right out of her mouth. That is how the character is written. As a result, every insult Sophia makes is more savage, and she keeps going when the others have stopped, because she doesn't know when enough is enough. And the other characters let her get away with it--and Sophia bears no consequence at all--because they all know it's Sophia's dementia talking, and there's nothing to be done about it. If Sophia had all her cognitive facilities, her behavior [aka abuse] would not be tolerated by Blanche or Rose, who would have insisted that Dorothy and Sophia move out. But they are empathetic towards Sophia's condition (and by extension Dorothy), which allows this dynamic to thrive for the duration of the series.

This show talked more about sex than any other show before sex in the city

I'm 43. Watched this on primetime back in the '80s. I loved loved loved it! Thought it was hilarious, as a little girl. It wasn't until I was in my twenties and watching it in college on syndication that I realized just how much I had no idea, as a kid, what these ladies were saying. It was awesome because I got to watch it in syndication and it was the same show but took on a whole new meaning! 😂😂😂 Now in my 40s and throughout my thirties, I'd watch it in syndication and a new meaning would jump out at me every now and again, especially being an older woman and hearing these chicks throw shade like they do 🙌🏾 EPIC

The didn't make disparaging cheap jokes based on stereotypes and oppression. They had carefully written scripts. They were such great actors that they just seemed "off the cuff" and irreverent as if they could get away with saying anything. But that's just not true. That's just great writing! Careful what you say now. You might just be saying something that you didn't mean.

Nope. From youngest to oldest: Rue (Blanche), Estelle (Sophia), Bea (Dorothy), Betty (Rose). Rue was ten years younger than Estelle (51 at the start), then Estelle, Bea, and Betty were 61, 62, and 63, respectively. Bea and Betty managed the impossible in Hollywood: a woman portraying a character YOUNGER than her actual age. That is very, very rare.

I loved this so much. I can still watch every episode over and over, and will always laugh 😅😅😅 The characters all work together SO well. I identify most with Dorothy 😊

Blanche reminds me of my aunt 😂 she’d always come down and when she’d leave we’d make fun of her accent when she was gone 😅 She lived in Georgia for a year and somehow gained an accent like she’d been there for fifty haha

Golden Girls is peak sitcom. It really was ahead of its time too.

This is really funny.

I enjoyed watching you laugh, cringe at the savage remarks, holding your breath waiting for Dorothy or Sophia to come out with some killer insult. Bless you for not stopping the video every few minutes which would lose the impact of the humorous situations. Well done, sir.

This brings back memories of watching this show with my great aunt. Granted, I was pretty young so I didn’t get all the jokes, but I enjoyed the show none the less. I should really rewatch it now that I’m older.

That first one when you started the second video is too funny. They’re all hilarious. I think that these clips are even funnier when you see the entire episode and get to know all of the characters. It’s truly a gem of a show. I’m going to be 50 soon, and I can already relate to so much of this.

This was great watching these again with you. I laughed enough to make my stomach hurt.
