THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND
The Golden Girls remains one of my favorite shows ever! I have always believed that the Golden Girls were the true precursor to the Sex in the City ladies. You may be thinking, “what the…?!”, but honestly, there are so many similarities. Dorothy and Miranda. Rose and Charlotte. Samantha and Blanche. And if you pay attention to the deadpan comedic delivery and tiny little body with curly hair, Carrie and Sophia. The bond between the four women in each show was unbreakable and no topics were taboo. They talked incessantly about life over food – cheesecake around the kitchen table for the Golden Girls, and breakfast around a restaurant table for the Sex in the City girls. Men and dating and female problems were topics for each on a regular basis. Other friends came and went, hearts were broken, love came unexpectedly and the meaning of it all was questioned. I still find myself drawn to the TV when either show is on; after all this time I still reference Carrie when I die over a pair of shoes and I reference Blanche when I sit out on my deck, which I lovingly refer to as the lanai! Here’s to many more years of reruns to come.
Thank you for being a friend sister!!! I am so excited that Samantha now know the beginning of the golden girls theme! And asks me daily of we can watch “those Golden Girls”? Xoxoxo
I can’t wait until Halloween when we dress as the Golden Girls along with Samantha!!!!
