Who's watching this after Betty's passing? Betty was the epitome of class imo. The world will not be quite the same without her. What a legend!

Bea didn't hate Betty. She got annoyed at her constant perky attitude. They regularly car shared to the studio and lunched together most days. If Betty wasn't available for lunch Bea would be upset as she did enjoy their time together. They were very different people but were not as distant as people try to make out.

I’m 38 and still watch Golden Girls while eating dinner 🥘😅

Rest in Peace Golden Girls, thank you Betty, Rue, Bea and Estelle for giving us joy, love, happiness and laughter into our lives! Thank you for being our friends.❤🌹🌹🍰🌹🌹

It's the writing. This is hands down one of the most well written sitcoms of all time. All of the primary actresses on this show were masters of delivery. But it was the lines they delivered that made this show so enjoyable and entertaining.

The Golden Girls should never be rebooted, the show deserve to be respected as the four original actresses made the show the awesome phenomenal that it was. The show definitely played its part in feminism and being a strong woman wasn’t a negative thing. I believe The Golden Girls was a breakthrough and led the way for such shows as Sex and the City, Desperate Housewives etc. The Golden Girls was probably a first of it kind where women could have their own opinions, and express themselves without taking cue from a man, for an example, AIDS was something negative back in the early 1980s, most of the negative propaganda were coming from straight men, but The Golden Girls as well as Princess Diana, they brought AIDS to the public with humility and understanding. The Golden Girls was ahead of its time, and they made it ok to have a giggle even during tough time and the show made you think. Most of all, they made it ok to feel sexy and you can still be sexual in later years. Before The Golden Girls, people of middle aged thought after 50 you had to dress down and behave in a low-key way appropriate to your advancing age, but the show turned that on its head and basically made it ok to grow old disgracefully. In my view, it will be very wrong to reboot The Golden Girls without its original casts, and as the incredible Betty White is sadly the only remaining cast member to be alive today, The Golden Girls should be allowed to be left alone and rest in blissful peace

The golden girls have helped me through some pre dark days on many occasions as a widow.

This is not true. I worked on the set and Bea and Betty were good friends. They would go out to lunch together and go shopping. They were two different types. Bea was quiet and more serious and Betty was more outgoing and happy. But they definitely did not despise each other. Betty has said in interviews how much she admired Bea.

If there is one thing that I take with me from Golden Girls it's the great St Olaf stories. The combination of White's innocence and perfect comedic timing made the show a hit. She deserved to win the award first.

If you've seen bloopers, you know Bea got along with her. I'm pretty sure their real life dynamic mirrored the relationship on the show. It's natural getting annoyed by coworkers, especially if you've gotten to be close friends.

The Golden Girls will always be remembered as one of the best shows on TV. Bea, Rue, Betty and Estelle were the mosttalented women ever

It's no longer true that Betty White is the only Golden Girl still alive. RIP Betty. Loved you as Rose Nyland.

I'm 19 years old, and this is my mother's favorite show. I have all the seasons and continue watching it almost daily, which is surprising because I don't like comedy AT ALL. Yet I love this tv series. It's just so good to relax, laugh, and even cry. Would have absolutely love for the show to keep going. I can kinda see why Bea Arthur wanted to end it, but damn.

Women in their 60s?! How dare you sir! Blanche was clearly in her 40s! 😁

When I'm sick and in bed it's always the golden girls. Especially when I had covid and I was in correntine. They got me through it. Thank goodness for marathons. 🤣😘❤

I'm 60 yrs old! I used to watch "The Golden girls" with my Mom when it first aired! This show bring back fond memories! I love all the actresses roles Bea Arthur( Dorothy) Betty White( Rose) Rue McClanahan (Blanche)! Estelle Getty ( Sophia)It's hard to believe that Estelle Getty had stage fright..she was so funny! I still watch this show! Long live " The Golden Girls"!❤️

When we had VHS tapes of the show, a friend was feeling depressed so we loaned him 2 tapes of The Golden Girls to watch. We said "take 2 of these and call me in the morning".

I'm 26 and I love this show so, so much. It's gonna be my all time favorite sitcom. ❤❤❤ This show brings me so much joy.

I must say Dorothy was my favorite golden girl. Then Blanche, then Sophia and then Rose. However, the 4 golden girls together were amazing. The show was the best show because the 4 of them made magic on screen. We all might have our favorites, but the chemistry to perform those wonderful characters is based on their talents. My love and respect for those 4 amazing ladies. As in 2021, the show is still my favorite TV show. 🤩🤩

A final farewell episode should be made with Rose visiting each of their graves to thank them for being a friend. 😍

I'm watching The Golden Girls right now. It's my favorite show!!!

Golden Girls will go down as a classic. Even after watching the same episodes over and over, I still laugh at the same scenes, same lines. I loved the mother/daughter scenes between Dorothy and Sophia. All four stars gave as good as they got, but they always, always had each other's back. That's what I loved about each of them. They were each a professional in her own right, bringing a variety of talents to the table. That magical combination makes for classic TV.

I actually enjoyed the show when it first came out even though as a child I didn’t understand some of the jokes. Now I love it even more since the content is far more relatable as I get older. 💖

I loved that show as a kid, and I love it now in my 40s. It is sad to think the four women were not best friends in real life like their characters were. I've read all sorts of rumors about Bea and Betty's relationship--but Bea has been dead over a decade. Why do people presume to read her mind and say how she really felt? Betty, to her great credit, seems to bear no grudge. The four actresses came together to make something that has endured over 35 years, and I'm grateful to each one of them for the laughs they've given me. May the three who have left us rest in peace. May Betty live to be 150! Edit: Back in January 2022. 🙁♥️

Non of it matters. They all did their job with such brilliance ! I’ve been watching since i was a child ! And as an adult it hits differently in a beautiful way and when I reach my golden years it’ll hit me differently again. I will love this show FOREVER!!

So sad to watch this and realize they are all gone! My granddaughter was heart broken hearing the news and she had purchased Golden Girls Trivial Pursuit! She is only 28 and truly appreciated these Women!

In 1985 I stood and told my first grade class this was my favorite show. Still love it. The Rusty Anchor episode is a must.

One of my favorite comedy show is the Golden Girls 👍❤️🤗

I’m in my 60s and I have all 7 seasons of the Golden Girls on DVD. I actually lost count on how many times I keep rewatching this sitcom series from time to time and it still brings a good laugh to me all the time. This is a classic evergreen, next to Murder, she wrote which is another of my all time favorite and I also happens to have the complete series. They just don’t make them like they used to now...

I will forever be a fan of this show. Watched it since it’s debut!!! ❤️

This IS some for real fiction. Bea did not "despise" Betty. Saying something like that is a cheap over-dramatization and attempt to get more views. The two women had very different personality types and simply didn't pal around together outside of work. That's all. The end.

Classic show. I've been watching since I was little and my mom watched in the 80's. I've seen every episode so many times. They help me get through depression, illness, etc. Just love them all, so many laughs!

I love watching the Golden Girls - It’s one of my favorite shows ! 💛💛💛💛

Bea and Betty had different acting styles and the only true thing about this was Arthur was not comfortable with Betty breaking character and interacting with the audience. They ate lunches together and bonded over their animal rights activism

I was never that fond of Bea Arthur, not even as Maud. But I certainly did like Betty White, alot. She was so great as Sue Ann Nevins on MTM show. Especially when she was after Lou Grant. Such a great show, wonderful people acting in it. It's sad I think they are now all gone. With Betty being the last one to pass. ❤🕊😇🙏😪

It would be impossible to name a "favorite" Golden Girl. It was an ensemble cast that would have failed without any component. What could you give up? Blanche's nerve, Sophia's wit, Rose's St. Olaf stories, or Dorothy's sarcasm? No can do.

Interesting that Betty White was the eldest ànd she's still living

I don't think she hated Betty at all, just different personalities who sometimes clashed but I think deep down she loved Betty. Who wouldn't.

I loved this show when I was little and I love it now. Sad that they're all gone now. RIP Ladies....you are dearly missed. 💔

The Monkees gave us the friendships we wanted as kids. Friends gave us our 20 something friendship goals. The Golden Girls gave us our twilight years buddy dreams. And at some point, should we ever be accused of a crime we didn't commit, we could all do worse than being part of The A Team. The iconic theme tunes gave us life too.

Arthur was a difficult person. This showed in the writing. It's part of what makes the show real and wonderful. Who hasn't had a difficult roommate or person in there life?

I once met someone who use to work on the set of Golden Girls. She once mentioned that Bea was kinda rude at times but Betty was the most lovely woman she'd ever met

I LOVE the golden girls. Them and I love Lucy. Timeless classics.

I used to watch it with my grandma when I was growing up. I also watched it with a lady I visited with when I worked at a nursing home shortly before she passed away.

I didn't like how you repeatedly threw Bea Arthur under the bus

It’s always about the “Fued” between Betty and Bea. But was it really a fued? Betty said she was not “Bea’s favorite person, but I’ve never heard language as harsh as “despised,” used. People who work together can’t all be each other’s favorites. And people with differing work ethics can still have lunch and get along on a personal level. They were two different people who were each moving the television industry forward in their own unique ways. Bea was trained on the stage whereas Betty spent almost the entirety of her life in front of a television studio-audience. And although I’m a big fan of Bea Arthur’s work, I get why Betty White got the first award. Rose was the complete opposite of Sue Ann Niven - Betty White reinvented her man-hungry stereotype from MTM. But Dorothy was still Maude, just like Amanda’s By the Sea was Maude doing Fawlty Towers. But at the end of the day, they were all phenomenal and, together, created a staple of American television which still grabs new audiences each year.

RIP, Betty. National Treasure.

I’m 60 and was in school when it originally ran. Watch it now and LOVE it!! The writing and acting are exceptional!

I absolutely love how they made 4 elder women be so comfortable talking about sex and show confidence. There’s always been a stigma around elders who still have an active sex life. Not because “they care for their health”, but because it’s something that only the young ones should do. And they wanna keep them locked inside a house knitting and doing nothing all day long. Some of them don’t enjoy that kind of life and they want to continue exploring and adventuring and meeting others. And I love how they created these characters with these personalities.

One of my favorites. It's one of those shows you never tire of watching.

I'm 48 now and I can remember watching this during the summer when I stayed at my Grandma's house. The show started the same year the night stalker was terrorizing L.A. and the surrounding area. As soon as the first commercial came on I zipped around the house and checked every door and window. I was terrified, but, the Girls and Jacque' (?) from 227 distracted me for awhile. Now the show gives me hope that being a senior won't mean I have to take up knitting and never leave the house. Thank you ladies for your courage, insight, and for sharing your talent with a scared little girl. Muah! 💋💙

I have been watching The Golden Girls lately. About a few months now. Didn't really watch it back in 85 when I was 17 years old. My wife loves it and I started watching. I love it now as well. Thx for the info on the show. Didn't know most of that. Thx again!!

the golden girls are so amazing

My brother met Betty White when he worked at the Eagles Nest in Indianapolis, he said she was a wonderful person to wait on she was so friendly. I watch the Golden Girls every night before bed I have all the dvds. It helps me to listen to them I don't know why It just helps me rest

I’m 42 yrs old and I have been watching The Golden Girls my whole life. Every night I fall asleep watching The Golden Girls!!! ❤️

I was twelve when "The Golden Girls" debuted, and I really enjoyed watching it every Saturday night on NBC! I loved all of them, but Betty White (Rose) will ALWAYS be my favorite!

The Golden Girls came out when I was in High School. I love the show. I now have the series on DVD. The day Betty White died, I plugged it into my DVD player. 😢❤

I was just finishing season 1 when Mrs White passed. I’m deep into season 2 now! Please watch the whole show!! It brings me back!! Thanks all you golden girls!! Until we all meet again!!

Thanks! My grandma and I used to watch Golden Girls together.

When more than 2 women work together the cat fighting begins. They kept it well hidden in the show I must say!

It's the comfort in their relationship bond that they created that makes it great!

Yes it did bring back great memories. Thank you.

More than ever this series has really pulled me out of some serious funks. Never disappoints.

Thank you for this. All such differently professional application to their unique talents. Bea's abrasive nature made her craft singular. Rue was a chameleon and became her character. Betty White is the Godmother of 'The Business'

I never could get into this show, but it’s number of fans is impressive Betty White is truly an icon. I wonder why the didn’t write Bea out of the show since the other actresses didn’t sound like they wanted it to end

Every single mobile portal I own has immediate access to this show. I just love it. Grandpa and I watched Classic Western shows and Grandma and I had the Golden Girls.

I have such good memories of watching the show in the last 1980's when it was originally in syndication. Saturday evening couldn't have been any better!

The Golden Girls Was Amazing Show

Love the Golden Girls. I’ve seen every episode. I watch them again. Sophia’s my favorite 💕

Watching in January 2022 after Betty White’s passing Dec 30th 2021. I really admire you Betty and have always followed your work! RIP my sweet friend in my head.💕

thanks for sharing the information of one of the best television shows ever in American history. i never tire of watching the Golden girls on syndication on hallmark channel and tv land in Texas. unfortunately all four Golden girls have passed on with betty white leaving us on 12 31.2021, just days before her 100th birthday. we are truly blessed to still be able to see them in reruns for a new generation to enjoy. my niece who is 17 years old enjoys the show. being a cat person, i loved that sofia would call Dorothy pussycat. RIP all four golden girls. we'll all miss you.

It seems Bea Arthur was the fly in the ointment for this show. She was the reason the show ended, and she was getting upset over Betty White's fun and playful attitude. Bea was once quoted saying Betty was childish. Ms. White was NOT childish! She was fun and positive; unlike Ms. Arthur. This was not the first show Ms. Arthur clashed on. It was just her personality. she was far too serious for comedy, IMHO. She would never have done SNL, or any of the hilarious movies Ms. White did! I miss Betty so much, nd her happy, funny, joyous spirit! I am happy, though, that she is with her husband again, and probably making the angels laugh!

I worked for one of the alphabet stations in NYC and had the pleasure of meeting 3 of the 4 girls. Rue was just a very gracious woman who was full of laughs but she let you know when she was done and ready to move on, classy lady. Betty.... I can't tell you how nice it was to chat with her and share a few giggles about someone who was rude to everyone. Betty was willing to hang around after the group went their separate ways, sitting with a few of us nobodies and made us feel like we were the interesting parties. She asked several questions about our jobs, genuine inquisitive questions. She gave each one of us a hug and a peck on the cheek. Bea.... how do I put this... Bea was not friendly at all, rude sarcastic with answers, she didn't want to be bothered with any of it. All the people in attendance all graciously let us take pictures with them, but Bea, flung us off with a flip of the wrist is if the peasants were among her. (That's when Betty and Rue made a hilarious comment about Bea behind her back and Bea knew we were laughing at her), too bad lady! These are fond memories I will cherish forever.

You have the most wonderful narrative voice. This piece was marvelous. Thank you for preparing and posting!

i loved your synopsis of one of my favorite shows of all time...I learned things i never new before like the house shots and of Bea's character in relation to the rest of the cast. Thank you...

With all due respect to her passing.. Bea Arthur and/or her characters, always grated me. She never seemed to try to endear herself to anyone. For me, she seemed like she was a curious mix of the persona's of Barbara Stanwick, Joan Crawford and Bette Davis.

I always enjoyed watching this show!

For me it’s that period of time, late eighties early nineties. Miss those days. Wife and I watch it every night.

Reminds me of the hot summers as a kid at my grandmas ... hilarious show and comforting.

I love The Golden Girl’s, they are so funny and now they have been reunited. ❤️

"Despise" is a strong word to use, but I guess clickbait titles are thing now.

I remember watching the golden girls with my aunt before she passed. Now.. I watch it not just for the show, but in my aunt's memory. It's actually my favorite show and I've researched it twice so far. Might rewatch again and again. Love it!

MISS BETTY WHITE, MY FAVE GOLDEN GIRL. YOU ALWAYS PUTS A SMILE ON MY FACE. YOU ARE NOW A GOLDEN STAR, UP IN THE SKIES. R.I.P. 🙏

This video is just a gossip piece. They took a few minor facts and made a whole blown up issue and added a bunch of untruths. I believe actual interviews from the cast that are posted on KZfaq over this video here. There is a video posted of when Bea passed away that has Betty stating that she and Bea had spoken a few weeks before and that Betty knew Bea was ill but not as and severe as it turned out. So if they were "feuding", why did they speak?

Bea rarely ever did anything with the other actresses after the end of the Golden Girls. She did do two episodes on Golden Palace. That was about it. I thought Betty & Rue were better together in their scenes and Bea was better with Estelle.

I’m so glad I discovered this series! They were good!!!

It did! Great video. Great editing. R.I.P Betty White 😢

Rest in peace Betty White🙏🙌💕🕯🕊 I just seen an old interview that had Betty White as guest on the Joy Behr talk show. Joy said to Betty " Bea Arthur didnt care for you to much did she". Betty said no she didn't, Betty white said I don't know why. I think Betty might have known why, all of the Golden Girls are at peace now and reunited with each other where they will all get along and love each other. I'll say this - watching the Golden Girl's helped me through some dark times in my life. The Golden Girls gave me laughter, love, friendship and Tear's in every episode until the end. I'm buying the box set. I love you Blanche, Rose, (Ma Sophia) and Dorothy rest in peace girl's🙏🙌🕯🕊💕🤗

The answer is - Bea didnt despise Betty White.

Thank you for being our friends ladies! Even though you are all gone now, you will live on for many years to come through this incredible show!

Til this Day I am still watching them... I have to say Betty White was my favorite one. Even if I Loved each and every one for their unique talents ❤️ This show was/is awesome.. I never get enough of a great laugh. May their souls all RIP forever and ever. Amen.... Thanks for sharing this video.

Hey great content, I watch two videos so far and they been really very good . I found out about your channel from a shout out in LandumC goes there latest video . Again Great Videos keep up the good work.

I love this show and have been watching it since I was 8 years old when it first started. It’s funny because the pilot script suggested a “Bea Arthur” type and so they asked her and she didn’t want to do another tv show but she decided to do it. They also wanted Rue to play the character of Rose Nylund as Betty White played a man chasing Suann Nivens on Mary Tyler Moore. Rue did an audition for the part of Blanche Deveraux and the producers of show decided to let her play Blanche. I can’t picture Rue and Betty playing opposite roles. It was great that it worked out the way that it did. I could watch this show over and over.

I loved The Golden Girls when they were on television. I now watch it on STAN and still love it.

I will never get tired of watching the Golden Girls!

It was a progressive show, for its time. A step forward at least.

Despise is a strong word I don't think Bea hated Betty at all. You have taken gossip and it's just clickbait which is a shame because you do have some other interesting information in the video

This was such a good and funny show.I still love it!

Love The Golden Girls so much that I'm still watching it today.

Also a spin-off NURSES from Empty Nest of which the women also appeared on it....
