The characters on the show are especially amusing to those of us who remembered the actors from other series. Rue McClanahan, who plays Blanche, was previously in "Maude", the tv show that starred Bea Arthur who plays Dorothy here. She was Maude's somewhat conservative neighbor and did not have the southern accent. Bette White, who is innocent Rose here, played Sue Ann Nivens on The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Her character was more like Blanche and was known for her sexual exploits. This just goes to show how versatile our golden girls are!

I have to say Blanche was my favorite because she got a lot of the more dramatic storylines in the show. Rue McClanahan was an excellent dramatic actress.

When Rose said that she wanted to be butter queen, and Blanche said what an actress, she thought Rose was referring to the actress who played Prissy in Gone With the Wind. Her name was Butterfly McQueen. 😂 You guys are a little young to remember who that is.

That brought a flood of great memories when I lived in Florida. Seeing few animals like alligators, snakes and black widows. And in the evening you just chilled out watching Golden Girls.

all 4 won the highest honor in TV here in US- the Emmy for their roles in The Golden Girls- all won once over the 7 years they were on (and each were nominated 5-7 times each).

The actresses that played Rose and Blanche originally played opposite characters on prior TV shows and were almost cast as the opposite because of that. Just look up Betty White and Sue Ellen Nivens on Mary Tyler Moore.

My favorite golden girl was Dorothy. We're both very sarcastic and not afraid to tell the truth about someone we don't like at the time.

Unlike the other girls ie. one-liner / savagery, Blanch is a mood and these scenes are in my opinion, cut too short to actually appreciate the mood shes setting. 😄 thank you for making this video though 👏
@williamreed763019 күн бұрын
Blanch is my favorite of the Golden Girls and Sofia is probably my second favorite. Unfortunately, this video on Blanch is only a small smattering of her funniest moments. Wish there was a better collection out there of her best moments. I really admire Rue Mclanahan and her superb acting on the Golden Girls! She really played the Hell out of Blanch! Most interesting fact is: at first, she wasn’t even being considered for the role of Blanch when she first auditioned and read for this TV comedy show/sitcom. Betty White, in fact, was supposed to play Blanch. In all honesty, even though Betty is an incredible actress too, I don’t believe that she could have possibly done better with the role of Blanch than Rue.

Loved vampy Blanche the best😂 Without Rue's excellent comedic timing, the great writing, and ensemble cast, Blanche could have been really off-putting, or worse, pathetic clown. Instead, she was witty, funny, absurd, and a fantastic character.

The difficult thing about Blanche's "best moments" clips are that hers almost all require more context that isn't shown in short clips like this. One in particular that stands out (if you haven't seen the show) is that "I've converted one" scene with her brother. Her brother is gay, and she found him in this bar, which she assumed was a gay bar, but it wasn't, the wives/girlfriends of the men at the bar had just left (fed up with their obsession with the game on). There are others too that lose a certain punch line or completely change the interpretation when cut into clips like that.

I'm sure quite a lot of these were adlibbed too. Kind of like a panto script, you get the bare-bones and a few lines, and you as the character add your own.

Comedy should never be described as 'of it's time'. Too many people being offended and outraged over stuff that has zero impact on them. Comedy pokes fun at everything and everyone, nothing is 'safe'. The Two Ronnies are gold, as are these 'girls'. I keep changing my mind on which one is my favourite. Sofia and Dorothy are probably the ones most like me, and when I'm due my B12 jab I'm definitely like Rose. And truthfully, I think everyone has a bit of Blanche in them somewhere 😂😂😂
