Making its debut in the fall of 1985, The Golden Girls rapidly established itself as a fixture of Saturday night prime time tv. Following the lives of four older females residing together as roommates in Miami, the show displayed a raw wit and a biting humor. The women live in the home of Blanche Devereaux (Rue McClanahan), a Southern belle who loves men of every kind and has dated every eligible bachelor in the Miami area. Her roommates are former high school teacher Dorothy Zbornak (Bea Arthur) and St. Olaff housewife and widower Rose Nylund (Betty White). Rose loves to tell stories about her former hometown, much to the chagrin of the other girls. The three are joined by Dorothys mother, the firebrand Sophia Petrillo (Estelle Getty), a spunky Italian immigrant who always speaks her thoughts. In her early 80s, Sophia might walk at a measured pace, but the velocity of her sarcasm only increases with age.
Overall, this is a charming circumstance comedy with likeable characters who have definitely developed their personal special identities. Although some of the very same elements of the show tend to be utilised over and over again (such as the St. Olaff stories and Dorothys reaction to them), The Golden Girls in no way appears to develop tiresome. With powerful performances from every single of the cast members, viewers will discover that Sophia steals the show
The Golden Girls DVD gives a quantity of hilarious episodes including the series premiere The Engagement in which Sophia Petrillo moves in with her daughter Dorothy and her two roommates, Blanche and Rose, right after a fire destroys her retirement residence, Shady Pines. Meanwhile, Rose develops a negative feeling when Blanches boyfriend Harry proposes... Other notable episodes consist of The Competition in which Dorothy and Blanche enter into a heated bowling competition with Rose and Sophia, and The Operation in which Dorothy is forced to undergo surgery on her foot. Feeling scared and sorry for herself, she develops a new outlook on life after her encounter with an inspirational hospital roommate
