Four mature women live together in Miami and experience the joys and angst of their golden years; strong-willed Dorothy, spacey Rose, lusty Southern belle Blanche and matriarch Sophia, Dorothy's mom, occasionally clash but are there for one another in the end; after all, when the show's theme song is titled "Thank You for Being a Friend," the ladies have to remain friendly with one another.

Troy Patterson Slate Sep 17, 2018
Golden Girls boasted characters who were sharp in their humor and secure in their freedoms, which included the freedom to be mean. Go to Full Review Willa Paskin New York Magazine/Vulture Sep 17, 2018
Golden Girls is funny and prickly and because we live in a world that is sexist and ageist it is also rare and remarkable: You should go watch the hell out of it. Go to Full Review Sonia Saraiya AV Club Sep 17, 2018
It was fresh and relevant while it aired. And in every way that matters, The Golden Girls is still quite modern. It's still smart, still funny, and in its 177 episodes, it tackles complicated issues. Go to Full Review J.M. Suarez PopMatters Sep 17, 2018
8/10
There's no overestimating just how much White, McClanahan, Arthur, and Getty were instrumental to the success of the series. They brought a rare chemistry to the characters that translated as real warmth and fondness for each other. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
