In 1984, Disney (actually Buena Vista) spun off its Touchstone banner to release more adult- oriented shows and movies. "Splash" was the first film, and this show, I think, was the first from Touchstone. It ran from 1985 to 1992 and it was called "The Golden Girls."
I remember my Mom used to watch this show every Saturday night on NBC. I remember this as well; this is about three old ladies who lived together in Miami and they did funny stuff!!!!! My personal favorite was the "Jeopardy!" episode from near the show's end, where the middle guy was a cruise ship director and two of the Golden Girls were on either side. The categories were funny ("Chickens," "Babes," "Chicken Babes," etc. LOL), and so was the final round: "This Man Was Buried In Grant's Tomb." The man drew a little stick guy (because "he didn't know the answer, so he drew a picture of it!!!!!" LOLOL) and lost everything! One said "Cary Grant" and got $100 left, and for some strange reason, the "Ulysses Grant" answer was wrong and she lost it all!!!!! Merv Griffin walked out, say how disappointed he was, and noticed the stick person:
"What is that, some kind of photograph of something like that?" LOL
The $100 lady said, "But I won! But I won! But I won..." and went out of dream mode.
THAT'S how funny this show really is. Watch it; you won't be disappointed!!!!!
10/10
