10/10
Good then, great now.

I remember watching Golden Girls when I was a teenager, and the Golden Girls was cool. But I love watching The Golden Girls in re-runs. The Golden Girls has it all, great actors and brilliant writers. Another reason why I absolutely love this show, because four elderly ladies managed to pull of a hit show; despite the fact that the 1980s was so obsessed with youth and the latest fads. The reason why I stated that The Golden Girls was good then and great now, because the show was enjoyable as teenager, but now the show comes across as genuine, and it is so deep and meaningful. We should not forget that The Golden Girls was originally shown on network TV, yet they talked about issues such as suicide and homosexuality. I still remember the episode with Dorthy's lesbian friend had fallen in love with Rose. Not to many shows out there that can place a hilarious spin on a precarious situation. I forgotten to mention, Dorothy, Sophia, Blanch and Rose were all so so enjoyable. Sure that the Golden Girls finished way back in 1992, but for some reason this show will continue to live on through the ages. Who knows in another two hundred years, aliens could be attracted to Earth because of the Golden Girls.
