The Golden Girls (Season 3) DVD Review

Making its debut in the fall of 1985, The Golden Girls quickly established itself as a fixture of Saturday night prime time television. Following the lives of four older women living together as roommates in Miami, the show displayed a raw wit and a biting humor. The women live in the house of Blanche Devereaux (Rue McClanahan), a Southern belle who loves men of every kind and has dated every eligible bachelor in the Miami area. Her roommates are former high school teacher Dorothy Zbornak (Bea Arthur) and St. Olaff housewife and widower Rose Nylund (Betty White). Rose loves to tell stories about her former hometown, much to the chagrin of the other girls. The three are joined by Dorothys mother, firebrand Sophia Petrillo (Estelle Getty), a spunky Italian immigrant who always speaks her mind. In her early-eighties, Sophia may walk at a measured pace, but the velocity of her sarcasm only increases with age.

The Golden Girls (Season 3) DVD offers a number of hilarious e pisodes including the season premiere Old Friends in which Blanche accidentally gives away Roses favorite teddy bear at a garage sale. When Rose asks for it back, a neighborhood girl holds it for ransom. Meanwhile, Sophia befriends another retiree, but her love for him transforms to concern when his erratic behavior signals the onset of Alzheimers disease... Other notable episodes include The Housekeeper in which the girls hire a housekeeper who they later fire. When theyre plagued by a series of bad events, they grow to believe the housekeeper placed a curse on them. And Charlies Buddy in which Rose befriends an old Army buddy of her late husband Charlie only to later learn that his out-of-the-blue visit wasnt entirely sincere
