Last summer while Nanny-ing for Meliss, she broke the news to me that Estelle Getty had died - I think indirectly from dementia (?). Anyway she was the first of the four girls to go & Meliss & I were shocked & really sad about it.
Saturday night, while in Graham, I heard the sad news about one of the Golden Girls passing away. Bea Arthur, AKA Dorothy Zbornack. What a sad, sad, piece of information to learn. She died from cancer. I had no clue she even had cancer! :(
You all know how much I love the Golden Girls. I can say I have seen every episode & I can quote from almost every episode as well. No silly, not the whole thing, but random phrases one of the girls says. Meliss is the same way. You know how it is when you watch something over & over, maybe you just feel like you know the person (never mind that they are playing a character!) better...maybe that's it. Anyway I just can't imagine having another of the girls pass! :(
I bought Meliss season 1 of the GG & that is what she watched while going through contractions, before giving birth to Alex. :)
I have a GG t-shirt that I wear sometimes! :)
Here are some of my favorite phrases from GG:
*I'm as jumpy as a virgin at a prison rodeo!
*Uh, Mr. Pfiffer..(then Mr. Pfiffer says) - "no, the P isn't silent, it's Mr. P-fiffer"
*Dorothy gets mad & then tells Mr. P-fiffer that she's going to punch him in the p-face.
*Rose: I just had a thought...
Sophia, Dorothy, Blanche: Congratulations.
*Silly Rabbi, tricks are for kids.
Ok, I could go on & on, but I digress... lol another phrase from the GG! :)
May you rest in peace, Sophia Petrillo & Dorothy Zbornack!

you forgot, "we're going to see burt reynolds! Ahhhhhhhhhh! sad day indeed.
yes, 2 girls in less than a year is very sad. I hope Betty White (Rose) and Rue McClanahan (Blanche) live many more years.
