Las chicas de oro

I was six when this show first aired, but I caught the reruns, first on NBC and then on Lifetime. This is the ONLY sitcom I can watch over and over again and still laugh hysterically. What made it work was the combination of brilliant (brilliant!!) writing, and a cast that worked magic with the words. Each character was totally iconic, memorable, and independent of the other; and yet, the chemistry between the four actresses was perhaps the best ever seen on television. It's no wonder they all won Emmy awards for their performances. The heart of the show, though, was the friendship they formed with each other. This was THE show for people who felt isolated, or alienated in some way from life, family, or society. No matter how bad or weird you felt, you knew you'd be accepted and fit in with The Golden Girls. I can't say enough about this classic show.

There is a reason why this show is one of the most beloved shows of all time, with a rabid fan base.
