The Golden Girls are the reason for my existence. I've been watching them for 8 years or so (whenever they started on Lifetime). It's the best show ever!

I have a quote sheet on my wall, and whenever I feel depressed, I read them and it makes me feel so much better! :)

LoL! That's from the episode where they all go to Atlanta b/c they were demolishing Blanche's grandmother's house. And then Sophia dies and goes to heaven, but Rose saves her.

LOL at this quote:

Blanche: Mel makes me feel young and beautiful and special. When we're together we laugh a lot.

Sophia: Why wouldn't you? You’re both naked.

there are so many good quotes from the show!!

:lol::lol::lol::lol: I love all the oneliners that Dorothy says when Rose finishes a line. Like in one episode, after Rose kept going on and on about something, Dorothy was like "Are we done circling the airport, Rose? You ready to bring this baby in?" :lol::lol:

On a cold night, the ladies are all bundled up together in their bed.

BLANCHE: Did you hear that?!

SOPHIA: Yeah, and as long as I'm in my own bed, I'll do what I want!

(later)

ROSE: Oh, darn, I forgot something!

BLANCHE: Go in your pajamas!

ROSE: Not that. I forgot to pray!

The ladies explain to Rose that God wouldn't mind if she skipped a night of prayer, because most of his free time these days is spent talking with Pat Robertson. Rose gets up to pray anyway.

BLANCHE: Oh God.

ROSE: One at a time, Blanche.

Dorothy gets an idea to mimic the voice of God to get Rose back into bed quicker.

DOROTHY: (as "God") Rose, thanks for the lovely prayer... now shut up and get into bed!

ROSE: AMEN!

Rose hops into bed.

BLANCHE: (whispers) Nice work, Dorothy.

DOROTHY: Wasn't me.

Blanche looks around, spooked.

BLANCHE: (to herself) Oh, Sweet Jesus am I in trouble!

    • That's a bit murky since that happened during a writers' strike. Assuming Kristen Marie had a 2-year contract she left about when her contract would have expired and Sharlene and Josie showed up right before that. Lemay was officially credited as HW from September 1988 but it seems very probable that his anticipated tenure influenced events that happened during the strike which started in April. 
    • I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!

    • Thanks. I do wonder if Rose was meant to be more given the caliber of actress they hired. I remembered Sara and Peggy staying longer as they were still on when Soapnet started their repeats. I wonder if that was part of the reason they brought Jake's brother in. 
    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
