Members dm. Posted July 22, 2008 Members Share Posted July 22, 2008 I don't know if this has been posted anywhere on this site, but I wanted everyone to know that Estelle Getty, who played Sophia Petrillo on "Golden Girls" has passed away. For more, see: http://www.cinemablend.com/television/Este...Away-11421.html She was a really wonderful actress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted July 22, 2008 Members Share Posted July 22, 2008 RIP!! She brought to life one of the most iconic characters in television history and she'll be missed by MANY, including myself. I can't wait until "The Golden Girls" comes on Lifetime in about twenty minutes or so...I'm definitely watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members KMan101 Posted July 23, 2008 Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 On July 25th, from 12 to 5pm, Lifetime is airing The Golden Girls episodes showcasing Sophia. July 25th would of been Estelle's 85th birthday. This is so sad Estelle, you will be SO missed. I'm still teary eyed about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted July 23, 2008 Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 Thanks for letting us know about this. I've done some quick poking around and you can go to myLifetime.com to vote on your favorite Sophia-centric episode and the #1 episode will be the last one in the marathon. It's gonna air from 12PM-5PM ET (11am-4pm CT). I just might skip soaps that day and watch the whole marathon...I'll be sure to keep some tissues nearby.
