I completed a rewatch of The Golden Girls for the 40th anniversary. Seasons 1-3 were my favorite seasons. Seasons 4 and 5 were enjoyable as well. Seasons 6 and 7 had their funny moments but something felt off that I couldn't exactly place. I think The Golden Girls had a good run and ended at the right time.

Agreed. I need to do my own rewatch as well.

The first four seasons for me were the best.  Season 5 was solid fun too but I seem to remember the excess number of clip shows thrown in. Seasons 6 and 7 had a different set of writers (hello Marc Cherry!) and does feel off. Certainly enjoyable but some of the continuing storylines didn’t feel right at all. I will say Season 7 stands out as feeling different than the rest because while there’s a number of episodes and moments I enjoy, it definitely feels more like a 90’s show even more so than it’s other contemporaries which served up 80’s leftovers in their final seasons. 
 

I agree it ended at the right time though although I’m still a bit mixed on the finale. Interesting though Estelle Getty would continue to play Sophia for another 3 seasons on two other shows.

I put The Golden Girls in the same group as the other big 1980s workplace/friendship sitcoms Cheers and Night Court, not with the big 1980s family sitcoms The Cosby Show, Family Ties, Who's the Boss, Growing Pains.

Funny that The Cosby Show, The Golden Girls, Who's the Boss, Growing Pains, Night Court all ended in the same season.
