The Golden Girls

[jennyjoan]

Well, aside from one faulty DVD - the rest (just gone through 3 DVDs) there are about 6 episodes on each one.

They have been brilliant and I laugh at every single one of them. This is my tonic for the day.

The ladies comedic timing was wonderful - even the slightest frown or nod of the head meant something funny. Must say the script writers were superb too. Have enjoyed it with the subtitles as there are so many innuendoes I missed first time around. Also when you go back over it again there was some improvisation from the ladies which made it even funnier.

Not a question just a happy sentiment.

Great entertainment. They don't make programs as good these days.

Bibble - yes I noticed that but it is not subtitled. Absolutely wonderful for me to get the subtitles.

Look out for the one re condoms.

The ladies go into buy condoms and they are very embarrassed but the salesman shouts via tannoy to the back of the shop/store - the lady in red (maybe Blanche or Rose) wants to buy candy ones. Superb episode.

If you liked the Golden Girls, try 'Hot in Cleveland' - a kind of updated version. The new series starts Monday on Sony TV 11.05pm (that information courtesy of rockyracoon - thanks again rocky). 'Rose' is there - albeit in a different guise. As you say, a real tonic. :o)

thanks naomi - will look out for that.
