Always risky to revisit old favourites but still very funny.

Oh thank you for this!

Saturday night sorted 😂

Cocolapew · 03/07/2021 19:09

Oh yay!
I'd tried rewatching it when it came back terrestrial telly but it was on every day and I couldn't keep up Grin.
I still love it.

Rewatched the first one last night. SO funny and a great cast. The facial expressions alone are a hoot.

Roselilly36 · 03/07/2021 19:10

I remember the golden girls 🤣 my late FIL loved them, aww great memories

SuperLoudPoppingAction · 03/07/2021 19:11

It was on offer on Amazon recently so I bought the first few series. So funny and so radical. But I hadn't realised when I watched it the first time how young they were!

Susannahmoody · 03/07/2021 19:12

It's frigging GOLD is Golden Girls

Discovered it on Prime, best thing on there

other than the amazingly gorgeous Christian Slater in Heathers

Yeah, the grandmother is only 50 or something.

The French one, Bea I think, is only 35!

Oh I love golden girls thank you!

QGMum · 03/07/2021 19:20

Have always loved this - thank you!

ZombeaArthur · 03/07/2021 19:22

The Golden Girls is my absolute favourite. I bought the entire series on DVD years ago, I actually had to buy American copies as they weren’t available in the U.K. at the time. It holds up amazingly well, still so funny and relevant.

RandomDent · 03/07/2021 19:23

They dress so old but I remember one of them saying she was 55 Confused

Eyjafjallajokulldottir · 03/07/2021 19:28

Well I've started series 1 episode 1. I don't remember the gay cook who lived with them?!

LemonDrizzles · 03/07/2021 19:28

Yes I saw this news today. Just finishing a full desperate housewives re watch on Disney plus. Looks like I now know what will be next (after scandal...)

LeonoraFlorence · 03/07/2021 19:37

My gran and I used to watch this together. Think we started when we were on holidays in the US. Brings back lovely memories of cuddling up in bed with her. I miss her so much. She was my best friend.
My oldest DD and I often sing the song to each other.

When this was on TV I had a 4 year old in my class whose parents used to record this for him. It was his favourite programme but I can't imagine why.

ZombeaArthur · 03/07/2021 19:41

@Eyjafjallajokulldottir Coco is only in the pilot episode. He was replaced by Sophia as a main cast member.

Eyjafjallajokulldottir · 03/07/2021 19:49

@ZombeaArthur ahh that makes sense thanks

Rockbird · 03/07/2021 19:53

Yes! Finally I get something out of the many pounds I shell out for subscriptions every sodding month Grin

I thought I would come back to this thread with zero answers- thank you for being a friend (s) 😁.
I still envy that house and so want their friendships. Amazing one liners to follow people!

I want their wicker furniture.

Eyjafjallajokulldottir · 03/07/2021 20:05

And their house in Miami Grin

Oh brilliant! Love the Golden Girls so much.

Last year Channel 5 would play two episodes at lunch time and it gave me GREAT JOY. But they only had the rights to the first couple of series.

Such a funny show, has held up really well. Good writing always does though!
