Herring Aid

"Golden Girls" was an iconic show in the 80s. 

While we were just young kids back then, we were able to appreciate the very adult - and super old - humour. The quips and quibbles of Dorothy, Rose, Blanche and Sofia would elicit giggles and laughs. My favourite would be Rose's St Olaf stories.

Just like her story about the Great Herring War in St Olaf.


What's great about this clip is seeing Dorothy and Blanche break character and just laugh at the silliness of Rose's story. It's this kind of comedy that's a joy to watch.

I've seen this clip more than a hundred tines, and I'm still laughing each time.

Golden Girl of the Universe

While searching for and watching old clips of "Golden Girls" on youtube, I discovered an interesting factoid about one of my girls - Sofia.

It turns out that Estelle Getty - or the actress who played Sofia - was a judge in Miss Universe 1992.


Whoa! This Golden Girl is a Girl of the Universe, too!

Shady Ladies

When "Golden Girls" was on air back in the 80s, I was supposed to be quite young to understand the "old lady" humour. But strangely, I did get it, and would often guffaw-out-loud at the jokes of Blanche, Dorothy, Rose and Sofia.

It's been almost 30 years since the series ended, but every time Golden Girls snippets appear on youtube, I'd still watch it and would still laugh at. Just like this wonderful collection of shade from the Fierce Four.



Hmmm... makes me wonder if the series is on Netflix. This is a show that's worth binge-watching!
