The casting was absolutely perfect. What a show that was!

best show that ever came to TV you will laugh till you cry I did many times

Rue was born for the role 👌

They had Elaine Stritch audition for Dorothy & Sylvia Sidney for Sophia, would've been something else entirely.

I cannot imagine Rue playing Rose and Betty playing Blanche. That would've ruined the show!

It truly would have ruined it, I think it would have been a completely different and awful show. I think it would have taken all the warmth and cheer from it and it would have just been a bunch of mean old ladies bickering

That's not how I heard it went down I heard it went down at Betty White went to Susan Harris ask to play Rose because she was done playing the sexy blond that's how it was Betty White who brought it up that she didn't want to play she want to play Blind she wanted to be the ditzy when she didn't want to be there the sex symbol anymore from Susan Evans from Mary Tyler Moore that's how I heard that went down

I think Rue is telling the truth here. Her story never changes. I also believe after they switched parts to audition for, Betty went to Susan Harris because she didn’t have a handle on playing Rose either. Susan told Betty, “Rose is not stupid, just terminally naive and takes things literally, not getting the double entendres or sarcasm in a joke.” Susan then told Betty that she liked the character of Rose a lot and believed that Betty could bring a lot to the role of Rose. Betty later admitted that playing Blanche would’ve risked typecasting her and she learned to like Rose a lot, too.

Geez. Your massive run-on sentence, and lack of punctuation make your comment almost 100% incomprehensible. Who is Susan Evans? Please don't tell me you mean Sue Ann Nivens!?!

According to Jay Sandrich, Rue's version is the correct one. There's a Special called The Golden Girls Cast/Crew, it's a 9 parter; the 2/9 starts with Jay Sandrich telling when Rue went to read for "Rose", it's very interesting.. The whole Special is. Oh, it's here on KZread ☺.. 💜🌿
