Amen to that! I cried like a baby when her death was announced on the news. I'm just happy she's with her beloved Allen Ludden now. I can't think otherwise!
i am 44 and watch golden girls on tv and have the whole dvd set as well. i love it. it's one of my favorite shows. i wish 3 or 4 ladies could really live like that harmoniously together and support each other emotionally and financially in real life without society making a big deal about it. i think it's no body's business but their own if they want to live together. everyone needs someone in life.
Bea didn't hate Betty. She got annoyed at her constant perky attitude. They regularly car shared to the studio and lunched together most days. If Betty wasn't available for lunch Bea would be upset as she did enjoy their time together. They were very different people but were not as distant as people try to make out.
@@deninevh Betty was being self-deprecating in the interview where she said Bea wasn’t very fond of her. Bea didn’t kiss ass, and she didn’t suck up to Betty like many others did. However, they spent plenty of time together and even Bea’s sons mentioned the bond shared by their mom and Betty. Just because someone gets on your nerves doesn’t mean you dislike them.
One more thing---watch the Lifetime {I think it's Lifetime?} shows about the women separately. Each woman is on each other's show, talking about that person---except, quite obviously, Bea is not on Betty's. The other two from GG are, but not Bea, and Bea was on Rue's and Esther's. That's pretty telling to me.
Rest in Peace Golden Girls, thank you Betty, Rue, Bea and Estelle for giving us joy, love, happiness and laughter into our lives! Thank you for being our friends.❤🌹🌹🍰🌹🌹
The Golden Girls should never be rebooted, the show deserve to be respected as the four original actresses made the show the awesome phenomenal that it was. The show definitely played its part in feminism and being a strong woman wasn’t a negative thing. I believe The Golden Girls was a breakthrough and led the way for such shows as Sex and the City, Desperate Housewives etc. The Golden Girls was probably a first of it kind where women could have their own opinions, and express themselves without taking cue from a man, for an example, AIDS was something negative back in the early 1980s, most of the negative propaganda were coming from straight men, but The Golden Girls as well as Princess Diana, they brought AIDS to the public with humility and understanding. The Golden Girls was ahead of its time, and they made it ok to have a giggle even during tough time and the show made you think. Most of all, they made it ok to feel sexy and you can still be sexual in later years. Before The Golden Girls, people of middle aged thought after 50 you had to dress down and behave in a low-key way appropriate to your advancing age, but the show turned that on its head and basically made it ok to grow old disgracefully. In my view, it will be very wrong to reboot The Golden Girls without its original casts, and as the incredible Betty White is sadly the only remaining cast member to be alive today, The Golden Girls should be allowed to be left alone and rest in blissful peace
I thank you for that comment. This was a one-shot piece of brilliant chemistry from start to finish, and we were lucky to watch the show at all. It addressed divorce, same-sex attraction, feminism, chauvinism, ageism, class divides, generational differences, and so much more while being relevant to the current time. The lessons this show provided are relevant even now, in 2021, which is very telling.
Love their show. I record them from the hallmark channel and tv land and watch them all the time. Very funny and comforting show to watch. I love their house too!
This is not true. I worked on the set and Bea and Betty were good friends. They would go out to lunch together and go shopping. They were two different types. Bea was quiet and more serious and Betty was more outgoing and happy. But they definitely did not despise each other. Betty has said in interviews how much she admired Bea.
lmfao. You worked on the set in your mind. Betty White has said multiple times in multiple interviews that Bea Arthur disliked her. She even went into great detail about on Inside the Actors Studio with James Lipton. I have no idea why this seems to upset people.
@@SluttChops Perhaps it's because these characters bring happy rainbows and unicorns in people's minds. People who lack good judgment. Or perhaps these women remind them of Hillary Clinton. Most of these "fans" have mental issues and they can't snap out of it.
It's the writing. This is hands down one of the most well written sitcoms of all time. All of the primary actresses on this show were masters of delivery. But it was the lines they delivered that made this show so enjoyable and entertaining.
You can’t overstate how good the writing and the acting were, but the show was also a triumph for the set designers and camera operators and makeup artists. In addition, if I remember correctly, this show was one of the early sitcoms to be recorded in stereo, which added a new layer of complexity to the work of the sound technicians. A lot of creative people were at the top of their games in creating this show.
If there is one thing that I take with me from Golden Girls it's the great St Olaf stories. The combination of White's innocence and perfect comedic timing made the show a hit. She deserved to win the award first.
If you've seen bloopers, you know Bea got along with her. I'm pretty sure their real life dynamic mirrored the relationship on the show. It's natural getting annoyed by coworkers, especially if you've gotten to be close friends.
I'm 60 yrs old! I used to watch "The Golden girls" with my Mom when it first aired! This show bring back fond memories! I love all the actresses roles Bea Arthur( Dorothy) Betty White( Rose) Rue McClanahan (Blanche)! Estelle Getty ( Sophia)It's hard to believe that Estelle Getty had stage fright..she was so funny! I still watch this show! Long live " The Golden Girls"!❤️
I'm 19 years old, and this is my mother's favorite show. I have all the seasons and continue watching it almost daily, which is surprising because I don't like comedy AT ALL. Yet I love this tv series. It's just so good to relax, laugh, and even cry. Would have absolutely love for the show to keep going. I can kinda see why Bea Arthur wanted to end it, but damn.
When I'm sick and in bed it's always the golden girls. Especially when I had covid and I was in correntine. They got me through it. Thank goodness for marathons. 🤣😘❤
When we had VHS tapes of the show, a friend was feeling depressed so we loaned him 2 tapes of The Golden Girls to watch. We said "take 2 of these and call me in the morning".
I loved that show as a kid, and I love it now in my 40s. It is sad to think the four women were not best friends in real life like their characters were. I've read all sorts of rumors about Bea and Betty's relationship--but Bea has been dead over a decade. Why do people presume to read her mind and say how she really felt? Betty, to her great credit, seems to bear no grudge. The four actresses came together to make something that has endured over 35 years, and I'm grateful to each one of them for the laughs they've given me. May the three who have left us rest in peace. May Betty live to be 150! Edit: Back in January 2022. 🙁♥️
I must say Dorothy was my favorite golden girl. Then Blanche, then Sophia and then Rose. However, the 4 golden girls together were amazing. The show was the best show because the 4 of them made magic on screen. We all might have our favorites, but the chemistry to perform those wonderful characters is based on their talents. My love and respect for those 4 amazing ladies. As in 2021, the show is still my favorite TV show. 🤩🤩
This IS some for real fiction. Bea did not "despise" Betty. Saying something like that is a cheap over-dramatization and attempt to get more views. The two women had very different personality types and simply didn't pal around together outside of work. That's all. The end.
Really? It's not that serious. And all these people that think they know what their real relationship was like, don't know. Just look at Kim Cattrall and Sex and the City. You never know what people are like behind the scenes.
@@A-small-amount-of-peas alright true. but if it said why did BEA have a problem with Betty White people in the comments would still say same thing like in the comments. As from the clip there is some truth in it as it has come from Betty’s lips that’s why I put the link up.
@Jessica Leigh interesting info on the study. RFK's widow, now 93, famously gave birth a whopping 11 times. She is giving her 88 year old sister, who gave birth twice, a run for her money. Their older sisters had six and eight children, each, and have been deceased since 1983 and 2000, respectively.
Bea and Betty had different acting styles and the only true thing about this was Arthur was not comfortable with Betty breaking character and interacting with the audience. They ate lunches together and bonded over their animal rights activism
They definitely kept things civil, and they tried to be friendly due to filming the show behind closed doors they were clash a lot. Bea detached her self completely from Betty after the show was over. Bea seems to be a bit jealous of Betty success especially after the show Betty said this A bunch of times in interviews
I actually enjoyed the show when it first came out even though as a child I didn’t understand some of the jokes. Now I love it even more since the content is far more relatable as I get older. 💖
SAME! Every time he mentioned something she didn’t like, it’s followed up with “Which is not surprising..” Explain why. Sounds like instead of being non-biased as a narrator should be, he added in his own ideas and opinions. Typical male.
@@dawnywarthog6642 every time Bea would hit Rose on the head. She really hit her. Notice even messing her hair up. Bea would Beat Betty White hard. Disrespectful of Bea.
Who wouldn't love Betty White? Perhaps a bitter old unattractive actress who was jealous as hell over all Betty's success. If anyone was a c*** it was Bea Arthur
I was never that fond of Bea Arthur, not even as Maud. But I certainly did like Betty White, alot. She was so great as Sue Ann Nevins on MTM show. Especially when she was after Lou Grant. Such a great show, wonderful people acting in it. It's sad I think they are now all gone. With Betty being the last one to pass. ❤🕊😇🙏😪
It’s always about the “Fued” between Betty and Bea. But was it really a fued? Betty said she was not “Bea’s favorite person, but I’ve never heard language as harsh as “despised,” used. People who work together can’t all be each other’s favorites. And people with differing work ethics can still have lunch and get along on a personal level. They were two different people who were each moving the television industry forward in their own unique ways. Bea was trained on the stage whereas Betty spent almost the entirety of her life in front of a television studio-audience. And although I’m a big fan of Bea Arthur’s work, I get why Betty White got the first award. Rose was the complete opposite of Sue Ann Niven - Betty White reinvented her man-hungry stereotype from MTM. But Dorothy was still Maude, just like Amanda’s By the Sea was Maude doing Fawlty Towers. But at the end of the day, they were all phenomenal and, together, created a staple of American television which still grabs new audiences each year.
Non of it matters. They all did their job with such brilliance ! I’ve been watching since i was a child ! And as an adult it hits differently in a beautiful way and when I reach my golden years it’ll hit me differently again. I will love this show FOREVER!!
Golden Girls will go down as a classic. Even after watching the same episodes over and over, I still laugh at the same scenes, same lines. I loved the mother/daughter scenes between Dorothy and Sophia. All four stars gave as good as they got, but they always, always had each other's back. That's what I loved about each of them. They were each a professional in her own right, bringing a variety of talents to the table. That magical combination makes for classic TV.
So sad to watch this and realize they are all gone! My granddaughter was heart broken hearing the news and she had purchased Golden Girls Trivial Pursuit! She is only 28 and truly appreciated these Women!
It would be impossible to name a "favorite" Golden Girl. It was an ensemble cast that would have failed without any component. What could you give up? Blanche's nerve, Sophia's wit, Rose's St. Olaf stories, or Dorothy's sarcasm? No can do.
I’m in my 60s and I have all 7 seasons of the Golden Girls on DVD. I actually lost count on how many times I keep rewatching this sitcom series from time to time and it still brings a good laugh to me all the time. This is a classic evergreen, next to Murder, she wrote which is another of my all time favorite and I also happens to have the complete series. They just don’t make them like they used to now...
I used to watch it with my grandma when I was growing up. I also watched it with a lady I visited with when I worked at a nursing home shortly before she passed away.
I once met someone who use to work on the set of Golden Girls. She once mentioned that Bea was kinda rude at times but Betty was the most lovely woman she'd ever met
Arthur was a difficult person. This showed in the writing. It's part of what makes the show real and wonderful. Who hasn't had a difficult roommate or person in there life?
My own daughter is a complete difficult Bea Arthur type.. I still love her to pieces even though she is picky, snobby at times and sarcastic- she is just like my late mom, mom Was difficult too. Still adored her.
It seems Bea Arthur was the fly in the ointment for this show. She was the reason the show ended, and she was getting upset over Betty White's fun and playful attitude. Bea was once quoted saying Betty was childish. Ms. White was NOT childish! She was fun and positive; unlike Ms. Arthur. This was not the first show Ms. Arthur clashed on. It was just her personality. she was far too serious for comedy, IMHO. She would never have done SNL, or any of the hilarious movies Ms. White did! I miss Betty so much, nd her happy, funny, joyous spirit! I am happy, though, that she is with her husband again, and probably making the angels laugh!
Some people are incapable of feeling joy and being at peace with themselves. Bea Arthur may have been one of these types. They do bring the mood down whether as a friend, relative or co-worker. They are also impossible to help and will suck you dry trying to improve their mood and lives.
Classic show. I've been watching since I was little and my mom watched in the 80's. I've seen every episode so many times. They help me get through depression, illness, etc. Just love them all, so many laughs!
I absolutely love how they made 4 elder women be so comfortable talking about sex and show confidence. There’s always been a stigma around elders who still have an active sex life. Not because “they care for their health”, but because it’s something that only the young ones should do. And they wanna keep them locked inside a house knitting and doing nothing all day long. Some of them don’t enjoy that kind of life and they want to continue exploring and adventuring and meeting others. And I love how they created these characters with these personalities.
The Monkees gave us the friendships we wanted as kids. Friends gave us our 20 something friendship goals. The Golden Girls gave us our twilight years buddy dreams. And at some point, should we ever be accused of a crime we didn't commit, we could all do worse than being part of The A Team. The iconic theme tunes gave us life too.
Bea rarely ever did anything with the other actresses after the end of the Golden Girls. She did do two episodes on Golden Palace. That was about it. I thought Betty & Rue were better together in their scenes and Bea was better with Estelle.
I was twelve when "The Golden Girls" debuted, and I really enjoyed watching it every Saturday night on NBC! I loved all of them, but Betty White (Rose) will ALWAYS be my favorite!
I was just finishing season 1 when Mrs White passed. I’m deep into season 2 now! Please watch the whole show!! It brings me back!! Thanks all you golden girls!! Until we all meet again!!
My brother met Betty White when he worked at the Eagles Nest in Indianapolis, he said she was a wonderful person to wait on she was so friendly. I watch the Golden Girls every night before bed I have all the dvds. It helps me to listen to them I don't know why It just helps me rest
The Golden Girls came out when I was in High School. I love the show. I now have the series on DVD. The day Betty White died, I plugged it into my DVD player. 😢❤
Watching in January 2022 after Betty White’s passing Dec 30th 2021. I really admire you Betty and have always followed your work! RIP my sweet friend in my head.💕
I never could get into this show, but it’s number of fans is impressive Betty White is truly an icon. I wonder why the didn’t write Bea out of the show since the other actresses didn’t sound like they wanted it to end
This video is just a gossip piece. They took a few minor facts and made a whole blown up issue and added a bunch of untruths. I believe actual interviews from the cast that are posted on TH-cam over this video here. There is a video posted of when Bea passed away that has Betty stating that she and Bea had spoken a few weeks before and that Betty knew Bea was ill but not as and severe as it turned out. So if they were "feuding", why did they speak?
Rest in peace Betty White🙏🙌💕🕯🕊 I just seen an old interview that had Betty White as guest on the Joy Behr talk show. Joy said to Betty " Bea Arthur didnt care for you to much did she". Betty said no she didn't, Betty white said I don't know why. I think Betty might have known why, all of the Golden Girls are at peace now and reunited with each other where they will all get along and love each other. I'll say this - watching the Golden Girl's helped me through some dark times in my life. The Golden Girls gave me laughter, love, friendship and Tear's in every episode until the end. I'm buying the box set. I love you Blanche, Rose, (Ma Sophia) and Dorothy rest in peace girl's🙏🙌🕯🕊💕🤗
I worked for one of the alphabet stations in NYC and had the pleasure of meeting 3 of the 4 girls. Rue was just a very gracious woman who was full of laughs but she let you know when she was done and ready to move on, classy lady. Betty.... I can't tell you how nice it was to chat with her and share a few giggles about someone who was rude to everyone. Betty was willing to hang around after the group went their separate ways, sitting with a few of us nobodies and made us feel like we were the interesting parties. She asked several questions about our jobs, genuine inquisitive questions. She gave each one of us a hug and a peck on the cheek. Bea.... how do I put this... Bea was not friendly at all, rude sarcastic with answers, she didn't want to be bothered with any of it. All the people in attendance all graciously let us take pictures with them, but Bea, flung us off with a flip of the wrist is if the peasants were among her. (That's when Betty and Rue made a hilarious comment about Bea behind her back and Bea knew we were laughing at her), too bad lady! These are fond memories I will cherish forever.
Every single mobile portal I own has immediate access to this show. I just love it. Grandpa and I watched Classic Western shows and Grandma and I had the Golden Girls.
I have been watching The Golden Girls lately. About a few months now. Didn't really watch it back in 85 when I was 17 years old. My wife loves it and I started watching. I love it now as well. Thx for the info on the show. Didn't know most of that. Thx again!!
With all due respect to her passing.. Bea Arthur and/or her characters, always grated me. She never seemed to try to endear herself to anyone. For me, she seemed like she was a curious mix of the persona's of Barbara Stanwick, Joan Crawford and Bette Davis.
I'm 48 now and I can remember watching this during the summer when I stayed at my Grandma's house. The show started the same year the night stalker was terrorizing L.A. and the surrounding area. As soon as the first commercial came on I zipped around the house and checked every door and window. I was terrified, but, the Girls and Jacque' (?) from 227 distracted me for awhile. Now the show gives me hope that being a senior won't mean I have to take up knitting and never leave the house. Thank you ladies for your courage, insight, and for sharing your talent with a scared little girl. Muah! 💋💙
This video is very unfair to Bea. She clearly was distant from toxic positivity, and there’s nothing wrong with that. She was reserved. Introverted. Shy. Not everyone can or wants to be the “life of the party,” and there’s nothing wrong with that, either. How frustrating for the world to be against her because she wasn’t what they wanted her to be. If any rift existed between her and Betty, it was because of outside influences, not anything between the two of them. I think today’s world would embrace Bea a lot more, because introversion and keeping a low profile is understood and accepted a lot more nowadays.
It's a shame Bea was so miserable, but there is reason Betty was so beloved by the world. Imagine being upset someone was happy and shared joy with others? That's just very sad.
I'm perfectly sure she did not, at all - 'despise' is a strong word, and the wrong one. I don't know why people need to sensationalize things like this ..... Bea Arthur was a professional actor, respected on both sides of the Atlantic and doubtless beyond, and I'm sure she respected the professional actor Betty White; now and then she might have been irritated by Ms White's positivity - but we're entitled to get a little annoyed now and then by the people with whom we work, even if we respect them hugely. White, Arthur, McClanahan and Getty raised their humour to the level of an art form - few can do that, and we don't need to descend to this level of personal intrusiveness: why do people do it? For the headline? As clickbait? It's demeaning.
@@darkb4light06 Very true, and I know when Bea announced she was quitting; the other 3 were mad. They had a hit show, making good money, and felt like it was their last chance at their ages. Bea thought she would go back to Broadway and be a big hit. She never admitted it, but I think later she regretted closing everything down.
At 0:56...A show about women in their 60s???!!! How dare you? Everyone knows Blanche was only 45 years old. The year on her Birth Certificate was erased, remember? If Blanche heard that part she'd unleash her Southern Belle Wrath....Lol. On another note, I've watched The Golden Girls since the beginning and still watch the reruns. It NEVER gets old. I raised my kids watching them with me...we know every word! Still love it!!!
Thank you for this. All such differently professional application to their unique talents. Bea's abrasive nature made her craft singular. Rue was a chameleon and became her character. Betty White is the Godmother of 'The Business'
I was young when Golden Girls was on television, and Bea Arthur was intimidating to me because she rarely smiled and was "picking" on everyone else. It's funny thinking about how you interpreted things as a child.
thanks for sharing the information of one of the best television shows ever in American history. i never tire of watching the Golden girls on syndication on hallmark channel and tv land in Texas. unfortunately all four Golden girls have passed on with betty white leaving us on 12 31.2021, just days before her 100th birthday. we are truly blessed to still be able to see them in reruns for a new generation to enjoy. my niece who is 17 years old enjoys the show. being a cat person, i loved that sofia would call Dorothy pussycat. RIP all four golden girls. we'll all miss you.
They obviously did not despise one another. They had their differences, different personalities, different acting methods, different views on professionalism, but that does not equate to "despising" one another. In fact you can see on the blooper reels that they are laughing together and having a great time.
There will never be another show like this. The writing and cast and comedic timing were spot on perfect and the characters relatable and loveable. It’s amazing how more than 30 years later, this show is as popular and adored as ever.
Bea Arthur came to Australia in 1999. She performed a one-woman show at the Sydney Opera House. she had a QandA session afterwards. I asked her about any tensions between cast members on the set of The Golden Girls. Her response was this : "When you're asked to hit a fellow cast member over the head with a rolled up newspaper on camera, only to be called by your cast-mate as being ugly, too masculine and too tall in the script; you get conflicted. I love Betty dearly, but our storylines had us fixed into four very defined, definitive stereotypes, and after a while, you begin to resent those stereotypes".
That says it all. There's a lot of nuance between love and hate, and it seems like they were somewhere in the middle. Like many people are. So to hell with For Reel Fiction's clickbait title. But it worked, because here we are. = [
Thank you for posting this. I liked Bea Arthur and I hate to see the negative things people say about her. She was a strong, independent and confident woman. Sadly, that intimidates allot of people who aren't that self-possessed.
Especially since the characters looks are you. I thought Bea was an attractive women. Yes, she was tall and had the deep voice, "but so did Blanche". Jk about the blanche part, I was quoting a GG episode. But Bea was not ugly.
Who's watching this after Betty's passing? Betty was the epitome of class imo. The world will not be quite the same without her. What a legend!
Amen to that! I cried like a baby when her death was announced on the news. I'm just happy she's with her beloved Allen Ludden now. I can't think otherwise!

The lessons this show provided are relevant even now, in 2021, which is very telling.
It WAS rebooted as "Hot in Cleveland" with Betty playing the part of Sophia.

I know right... So rude. 😂😂😂
The only thing '40's about Blanche was her hairdo. Dorothy said so.
In what Myr go, dog years? xD
Even her ID, Driver licence and birth certificate date of birth were “deleted by the authority of the govenor” 🤣 shows Blance was very influential 😜
The Golden Girls will always be remembered as one of the best shows on TV. Bea, Rue, Betty and Estelle were the mosttalented women ever
It's no longer true that Betty White is the only Golden Girl still alive. RIP Betty. Loved you as Rose Nyland.
If there is one thing that I take with me from Golden Girls it's the great St Olaf stories. The combination of White's innocence and perfect comedic timing made the show a hit. She deserved to win the award first.
If you've seen bloopers, you know Bea got along with her. I'm pretty sure their real life dynamic mirrored the relationship on the show. It's natural getting annoyed by coworkers, especially if you've gotten to be close friends.
Well said
we're they close friends?
I'm 60 yrs old! I used to watch "The Golden girls" with my Mom when it first aired! This show bring back fond memories! I love all the actresses roles Bea Arthur( Dorothy) Betty White( Rose) Rue McClanahan (Blanche)! Estelle Getty ( Sophia)It's hard to believe that Estelle Getty had stage fright..she was so funny! I still watch this show! Long live " The Golden Girls"!❤️
I'm 19 years old, and this is my mother's favorite show. I have all the seasons and continue watching it almost daily, which is surprising because I don't like comedy AT ALL. Yet I love this tv series. It's just so good to relax, laugh, and even cry.
Would have absolutely love for the show to keep going.
I can kinda see why Bea Arthur wanted to end it, but damn.
It’s because you’re gay as hell. 🤣🤣🤣
When I'm sick and in bed it's always the golden girls. Especially when I had covid and I was in correntine. They got me through it. Thank goodness for marathons. 🤣😘❤
I'm 26 and I love this show so, so much. It's gonna be my all time favorite sitcom. ❤❤❤ This show brings me so much joy.
When we had VHS tapes of the show, a friend was feeling depressed so we loaned him 2 tapes of The Golden Girls to watch. We said "take 2 of these and call me in the morning".
Nice!!😁👍
Perfect!
I loved that show as a kid, and I love it now in my 40s. It is sad to think the four women were not best friends in real life like their characters were. I've read all sorts of rumors about Bea and Betty's relationship--but Bea has been dead over a decade. Why do people presume to read her mind and say how she really felt? Betty, to her great credit, seems to bear no grudge. The four actresses came together to make something that has endured over 35 years, and I'm grateful to each one of them for the laughs they've given me. May the three who have left us rest in peace. May Betty live to be 150!
Edit: Back in January 2022. 🙁♥️
I must say Dorothy was my favorite golden girl. Then Blanche, then Sophia and then Rose. However, the 4 golden girls together were amazing. The show was the best show because the 4 of them made magic on screen. We all might have our favorites, but the chemistry to perform those wonderful characters is based on their talents. My love and respect for those 4 amazing ladies. As in 2021, the show is still my favorite TV show. 🤩🤩
Mine too! They were all perfect for the roles they played.
I agree, i loved Dorothy on GG's.
Sophia, Rose, Blanche then Dorthy for me 😆 but I needed all them.
Honestly yes … Dorothy queen of sarcasm , then Blanche , Sophia and rose , but they all have their own talents love them
Yes I liked Dorothy best. I liked Rose character the least. But all of them good together.
This IS some for real fiction. Bea did not "despise" Betty. Saying something like that is a cheap over-dramatization and attempt to get more views. The two women had very different personality types and simply didn't pal around together outside of work. That's all. The end.
Really? It's not that serious. And all these people that think they know what their real relationship was like, don't know. Just look at Kim Cattrall and Sex and the City. You never know what people are like behind the scenes.
Unfortunately it's a common practice with any media since the advent of tabloid newspapers. If you use an extreme word it draws peoples attention

@@softshallow7435 seen it and it does not say Bea DESPISED Betty
@@A-small-amount-of-peas alright true. but if it said why did BEA have a problem with Betty White people in the comments would still say same thing like in the comments. As from the clip there is some truth in it as it has come from Betty’s lips that’s why I put the link up.
Interesting that Betty White was the eldest ànd she's still living
🤔 Yes,l noticed that too.
It's all her smiling and laughing. She has always seemed genuinely happy and enthusiastic.
I think that truly sucks for the other ladies on the cast.
@Jessica Leigh interesting info on the study. RFK's widow, now 93, famously gave birth a whopping 11 times. She is giving her 88 year old sister, who gave birth twice, a run for her money. Their older sisters had six and eight children, each, and have been deceased since 1983 and 2000, respectively.
So we're just gonna not ignore that Rose is 99!!!
I'm watching The Golden Girls right now. It's my favorite show!!!
One of my favorite comedy show is the Golden Girls 👍❤️🤗
Bea and Betty had different acting styles and the only true thing about this was Arthur was not comfortable with Betty breaking character and interacting with the audience. They ate lunches together and bonded over their animal rights activism
The guy says that in the video your just repeating him🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They definitely kept things civil, and they tried to be friendly due to filming the show behind closed doors they were clash a lot. Bea detached her self completely from Betty after the show was over. Bea seems to be a bit jealous of Betty success especially after the show Betty said this A bunch of times in interviews
A final farewell episode should be made with Rose visiting each of their graves to thank them for being a friend. 😍
That is an amazing idea. Omg I could see rose in her St Olaf way. It would be heart warming and funny at the same time.
That would be soooo sad
What fantastic idea
I like it !!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💗💗💗
A full range of emotions !!!!
I'm not sure Rue and Bea actually have graves, having been cremated. I like the idea, though.
I will forever be a fan of this show. Watched it since it’s debut!!! ❤️
I actually enjoyed the show when it first came out even though as a child I didn’t understand some of the jokes. Now I love it even more since the content is far more relatable as I get older. 💖
"actually"
Why some always saying negative things about someone when they are not here to defend themselves?
I didn't like how you repeatedly threw Bea Arthur under the bus
th-cam.com/video/i-wTJ2hQCK8/w-d-xo.html
Yeah, the way he portrayed Bea was an asshole thing to do it.
She kind of did it to herself 🤷🏻♀️
SAME!
Every time he mentioned something she didn’t like, it’s followed up with “Which is not surprising..”
Explain why. Sounds like instead of being non-biased as a narrator should be, he added in his own ideas and opinions.
Typical male.
I don't think she hated Betty at all, just different personalities who sometimes clashed but I think deep down she loved Betty. Who wouldn't.
I just watched a Joy Behar interview with Betty. Betty admitted it.
@@dawnywarthog6642 every time Bea would hit Rose on the head. She really hit her. Notice even messing her hair up. Bea would Beat Betty White hard. Disrespectful of Bea.
Who wouldn't love Betty White? Perhaps a bitter old unattractive actress who was jealous as hell over all Betty's success. If anyone was a c*** it was Bea Arthur
@@ladypamela2 well now don't sugar coat it.
I was never that fond of Bea Arthur, not even as Maud. But I certainly did like Betty White, alot. She was so great as Sue Ann Nevins on MTM show. Especially when she was after Lou Grant. Such a great show, wonderful people acting in it. It's sad I think they are now all gone. With Betty being the last one to pass. ❤🕊😇🙏😪
In 1985 I stood and told my first grade class this was my favorite show. Still love it.
The Rusty Anchor episode is a must.
It’s always about the “Fued” between Betty and Bea. But was it really a fued? Betty said she was not “Bea’s favorite person, but I’ve never heard language as harsh as “despised,” used. People who work together can’t all be each other’s favorites. And people with differing work ethics can still have lunch and get along on a personal level. They were two different people who were each moving the television industry forward in their own unique ways. Bea was trained on the stage whereas Betty spent almost the entirety of her life in front of a television studio-audience. And although I’m a big fan of Bea Arthur’s work, I get why Betty White got the first award. Rose was the complete opposite of Sue Ann Niven - Betty White reinvented her man-hungry stereotype from MTM. But Dorothy was still Maude, just like Amanda’s By the Sea was Maude doing Fawlty Towers. But at the end of the day, they were all phenomenal and, together, created a staple of American television which still grabs new audiences each year.
I agree. Going from 'Sue Ann Niven' to 'Rose' was huge testament to the depth of Betty White's talent.
Non of it matters. They all did their job with such brilliance ! I’ve been watching since i was a child ! And as an adult it hits differently in a beautiful way and when I reach my golden years it’ll hit me differently again. I will love this show FOREVER!!
YES!! I LOVE THE "Golden Girls" always will!!!
Golden Girls will go down as a classic. Even after watching the same episodes over and over, I still laugh at the same scenes, same lines. I loved the mother/daughter scenes between Dorothy and Sophia. All four stars gave as good as they got, but they always, always had each other's back. That's what I loved about each of them. They were each a professional in her own right, bringing a variety of talents to the table. That magical combination makes for classic TV.
I love watching the Golden Girls -
It’s one of my favorite shows !
💛💛💛💛
So sad to watch this and realize they are all gone! My granddaughter was heart broken hearing the news and she had purchased Golden Girls Trivial Pursuit! She is only 28 and truly appreciated these Women!
It would be impossible to name a "favorite" Golden Girl. It was an ensemble cast that would have failed without any component. What could you give up? Blanche's nerve, Sophia's wit, Rose's St. Olaf stories, or Dorothy's sarcasm? No can do.
I always thought that Dorothy had the best clothes of all of them on this show
Sophia is my fav but only by a tiny bit. Love them all!
They were a team. I can't imagine Golden Girls with any other actresses.
I’m in my 60s and I have all 7 seasons of the Golden Girls on DVD. I actually lost count on how many times I keep rewatching this sitcom series from time to time and it still brings a good laugh to me all the time. This is a classic evergreen, next to Murder, she wrote which is another of my all time favorite and I also happens to have the complete series. They just don’t make them like they used to now...
I used to watch it with my grandma when I was growing up. I also watched it with a lady I visited with when I worked at a nursing home shortly before she passed away.
I once met someone who use to work on the set of Golden Girls. She once mentioned that Bea was kinda rude at times but Betty was the most lovely woman she'd ever met
And Rue and Estelle? I love Estelle!!
Arthur was a difficult person. This showed in the writing. It's part of what makes the show real and wonderful. Who hasn't had a difficult roommate or person in there life?
My own daughter is a complete difficult Bea Arthur type.. I still love her to pieces even though she is picky, snobby at times and sarcastic- she is just like my late mom, mom
Was difficult too. Still adored her.
If it's the writing, then Dorothy was the difficult one. It's called acting.
@@annainspain5176 don't be snooty.. we get it
It seems Bea Arthur was the fly in the ointment for this show. She was the reason the show ended, and she was getting upset over Betty White's fun and playful attitude. Bea was once quoted saying Betty was childish. Ms. White was NOT childish! She was fun and positive; unlike Ms. Arthur. This was not the first show Ms. Arthur clashed on. It was just her personality. she was far too serious for comedy, IMHO. She would never have done SNL, or any of the hilarious movies Ms. White did! I miss Betty so much, nd her happy, funny, joyous spirit! I am happy, though, that she is with her husband again, and probably making the angels laugh!
Some people are incapable of feeling joy and being at peace with themselves. Bea Arthur may have been one of these types. They do bring the mood down whether as a friend, relative or co-worker. They are also impossible to help and will suck you dry trying to improve their mood and lives.
I loved this show when I was little and I love it now. Sad that they're all gone now. RIP Ladies....you are dearly missed. 💔
Classic show. I've been watching since I was little and my mom watched in the 80's. I've seen every episode so many times. They help me get through depression, illness, etc. Just love them all, so many laughs!
I absolutely love how they made 4 elder women be so comfortable talking about sex and show confidence. There’s always been a stigma around elders who still have an active sex life.
Not because “they care for their health”, but because it’s something that only the young ones should do. And they wanna keep them locked inside a house knitting and doing nothing all day long.
Some of them don’t enjoy that kind of life and they want to continue exploring and adventuring and meeting others. And I love how they created these characters with these personalities.
I totally agree! I love how even at 80 Sophia goes on dates and gets excited!! It’s really sweet and funny!
The Monkees gave us the friendships we wanted as kids. Friends gave us our 20 something friendship goals. The Golden Girls gave us our twilight years buddy dreams.
And at some point, should we ever be accused of a crime we didn't commit, we could all do worse than being part of The A Team.
The iconic theme tunes gave us life too.
Well put
I’m 60 and was in school when it originally ran. Watch it now and LOVE it!! The writing and acting are exceptional!
I LOVE the golden girls. Them and I love Lucy. Timeless classics.
One of my favorites. It's one of those shows you never tire of watching.
the golden girls are so amazing
The Golden Girls Was Amazing Show
Bea rarely ever did anything with the other actresses after the end of the Golden Girls. She did do two episodes on Golden Palace. That was about it. I thought Betty & Rue were better together in their scenes and Bea was better with Estelle.
RIP, Betty. National Treasure.
I was twelve when "The Golden Girls" debuted, and I really enjoyed watching it every Saturday night on NBC! I loved all of them, but Betty White (Rose) will ALWAYS be my favorite!
I was just finishing season 1 when Mrs White passed. I’m deep into season 2 now!
Please watch the whole show!!
It brings me back!!
Thanks all you golden girls!!
Until we all meet again!!
It's the comfort in their relationship bond that they created that makes it great!
My brother met Betty White when he worked at the Eagles Nest in Indianapolis, he said she was a wonderful person to wait on she was so friendly. I watch the Golden Girls every night before bed I have all the dvds. It helps me to listen to them I don't know why It just helps me rest
The Golden Girls came out when I was in High School. I love the show. I now have the series on DVD. The day Betty White died, I plugged it into my DVD player. 😢❤
Watching in January 2022 after Betty White’s passing Dec 30th 2021. I really admire you Betty and have always followed your work! RIP my sweet friend in my head.💕
I never could get into this show, but it’s number of fans is impressive
Betty White is truly an icon. I wonder why the didn’t write Bea out of the show since the other actresses didn’t sound like they wanted it to end
I’m 42 yrs old and I have been watching The Golden Girls my whole life. Every night I fall asleep watching The Golden Girls!!! ❤️
This video is just a gossip piece. They took a few minor facts and made a whole blown up issue and added a bunch of untruths. I believe actual interviews from the cast that are posted on TH-cam over this video here. There is a video posted of when Bea passed away that has Betty stating that she and Bea had spoken a few weeks before and that Betty knew Bea was ill but not as and severe as it turned out. So if they were "feuding", why did they speak?
@BeebsBonanza she also said they were very close. Do your research instead of running with one clip.
I still watch them
Rest in peace Betty White🙏🙌💕🕯🕊
I just seen an old interview that had Betty White as guest on the Joy Behr talk show. Joy said to Betty " Bea Arthur didnt care for you to much did she". Betty said no she didn't, Betty white said I don't know why.
I think Betty might have known why, all of the Golden Girls are at peace now and reunited with each other where they will all get along and love each other. I'll say this -
watching the Golden Girl's helped me through some dark times in my life. The Golden Girls gave me laughter, love, friendship and Tear's in every episode until the end. I'm buying the box set. I love you Blanche, Rose, (Ma Sophia) and Dorothy rest in peace girl's🙏🙌🕯🕊💕🤗
Wishing a late Heavenly Betty White Birthday who would have been 100 years of age. You are missed ❤
It was a progressive show, for its time. A step forward at least.
For me it’s that period of time, late eighties early nineties. Miss those days. Wife and I watch it every night.
I worked for one of the alphabet stations in NYC and had the pleasure of meeting 3 of the 4 girls. Rue was just a very gracious woman who was full of laughs but she let you know when she was done and ready to move on, classy lady. Betty.... I can't tell you how nice it was to chat with her and share a few giggles about someone who was rude to everyone. Betty was willing to hang around after the group went their separate ways, sitting with a few of us nobodies and made us feel like we were the interesting parties. She asked several questions about our jobs, genuine inquisitive questions. She gave each one of us a hug and a peck on the cheek. Bea.... how do I put this... Bea was not friendly at all, rude sarcastic with answers, she didn't want to be bothered with any of it. All the people in attendance all graciously let us take pictures with them, but Bea, flung us off with a flip of the wrist is if the peasants were among her. (That's when Betty and Rue made a hilarious comment about Bea behind her back and Bea knew we were laughing at her), too bad lady! These are fond memories I will cherish forever.
I grew up watching Golden girls and I still love it.
I love The Golden Girl’s, they are so funny and now they have been reunited. ❤️
Every single mobile portal I own has immediate access to this show. I just love it. Grandpa and I watched Classic Western shows and Grandma and I had the Golden Girls.
Love the Golden Girls. I’ve seen every episode. I watch them again. Sophia’s my favorite 💕
For me the show was all about Betty White and the character Estelle. Legendary!
When more than 2 women work together the cat fighting begins. They kept it well hidden in the show I must say!
I have been watching The Golden Girls lately. About a few months now. Didn't really watch it back in 85 when I was 17 years old. My wife loves it and I started watching. I love it now as well. Thx for the info on the show. Didn't know most of that. Thx again!!
I will never get tired of watching the Golden Girls!
With all due respect to her passing.. Bea Arthur and/or her characters, always grated me.
She never seemed to try to endear herself to anyone. For me, she seemed like she was a curious mix of the persona's of Barbara Stanwick, Joan Crawford and Bette Davis.
Without their talent....
I'm 48 now and I can remember watching this during the summer when I stayed at my Grandma's house. The show started the same year the night stalker was terrorizing L.A. and the surrounding area. As soon as the first commercial came on I zipped around the house and checked every door and window. I was terrified, but, the Girls and Jacque' (?) from 227 distracted me for awhile. Now the show gives me hope that being a senior won't mean I have to take up knitting and never leave the house. Thank you ladies for your courage, insight, and for sharing your talent with a scared little girl. Muah! 💋💙
This video is very unfair to Bea. She clearly was distant from toxic positivity, and there’s nothing wrong with that. She was reserved. Introverted. Shy. Not everyone can or wants to be the “life of the party,” and there’s nothing wrong with that, either. How frustrating for the world to be against her because she wasn’t what they wanted her to be. If any rift existed between her and Betty, it was because of outside influences, not anything between the two of them. I think today’s world would embrace Bea a lot more, because introversion and keeping a low profile is understood and accepted a lot more nowadays.
Exactly! We all are not born alike, but because of our differences, the Grand Puzzle fits together beautifully.
I loved The Golden Girls when they were on television. I now watch it on STAN and still love it.
Despise is such a strong word. Bea didn't do that. Such a click bate.
Reminds me of the hot summers as a kid at my grandmas ... hilarious show and comforting.
It's a shame Bea was so miserable, but there is reason Betty was so beloved by the world. Imagine being upset someone was happy and shared joy with others? That's just very sad.
Thank you for being our friends ladies! Even though you are all gone now, you will live on for many years to come through this incredible show!
Bea Arthur did not despise Betty White.
I'm perfectly sure she did not, at all - 'despise' is a strong word, and the wrong one. I don't know why people need to sensationalize things like this ..... Bea Arthur was a professional actor, respected on both sides of the Atlantic and doubtless beyond, and I'm sure she respected the professional actor Betty White; now and then she might have been irritated by Ms White's positivity - but we're entitled to get a little annoyed now and then by the people with whom we work, even if we respect them hugely. White, Arthur, McClanahan and Getty raised their humour to the level of an art form - few can do that, and we don't need to descend to this level of personal intrusiveness: why do people do it? For the headline? As clickbait? It's demeaning.
Plainly put, despise is a strong word. Bea didn't like Betty. Betty herself has said that a lot.
@@darkb4light06 Very true, and I know when Bea announced she was quitting; the other 3 were mad. They had a hit show, making good money, and felt like it was their last chance at their ages. Bea thought she would go back to Broadway and be a big hit. She never admitted it, but I think later she regretted closing everything down.
@@RobertJonesWightpaint Agreed. And poor Bea is not around. This is sheer character assassination
@Josh agreed. a lot of sitcoms run themselves into the ground. I think she made a wise choice.
At 0:56...A show about women in their 60s???!!! How dare you? Everyone knows Blanche was only 45 years old. The year on her Birth Certificate was erased, remember? If Blanche heard that part she'd unleash her Southern Belle Wrath....Lol. On another note, I've watched The Golden Girls since the beginning and still watch the reruns. It NEVER gets old. I raised my kids watching them with me...we know every word! Still love it!!!
The answer is - Bea didnt despise Betty White.
R.I.P Betty White we all love u 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you for this. All such differently professional application to their unique talents. Bea's abrasive nature made her craft singular. Rue was a chameleon and became her character. Betty White is the Godmother of 'The Business'
I’m from Philadelphia. I remember Betty, doing commercials for our delicious Tastycakes. She had the Best dimples…..;)
I was young when Golden Girls was on television, and Bea Arthur was intimidating to me because she rarely smiled and was "picking" on everyone else. It's funny thinking about how you interpreted things as a child.
thanks for sharing the information of one of the best television shows ever in American history. i never tire of watching the Golden girls on syndication on hallmark channel and tv land in Texas. unfortunately all four Golden girls have passed on with betty white leaving us on 12 31.2021, just days before her 100th birthday. we are truly blessed to still be able to see them in reruns for a new generation to enjoy. my niece who is 17 years old enjoys the show. being a cat person, i loved that sofia would call Dorothy pussycat. RIP all four golden girls. we'll all miss you.
They obviously did not despise one another. They had their differences, different personalities, different acting methods, different views on professionalism, but that does not equate to "despising" one another. In fact you can see on the blooper reels that they are laughing together and having a great time.
There will never be another show like this. The writing and cast and comedic timing were spot on perfect and the characters relatable and loveable. It’s amazing how more than 30 years later, this show is as popular and adored as ever.
Bea Arthur came to Australia in 1999. She performed a one-woman show at the Sydney Opera House. she had a QandA session afterwards. I asked her about any tensions between cast members on the set of The Golden Girls. Her response was this : "When you're asked to hit a fellow cast member over the head with a rolled up newspaper on camera, only to be called by your cast-mate as being ugly, too masculine and too tall in the script; you get conflicted. I love Betty dearly, but our storylines had us fixed into four very defined, definitive stereotypes, and after a while, you begin to resent those stereotypes".
That says it all. There's a lot of nuance between love and hate, and it seems like they were somewhere in the middle. Like many people are.
So to hell with For Reel Fiction's clickbait title. But it worked, because here we are. = [
Thank you for posting this. I liked Bea Arthur and I hate to see the negative things people say about her. She was a strong, independent and confident woman. Sadly, that intimidates allot of people who aren't that self-possessed.
Especially since the characters looks are you. I thought Bea was an attractive women. Yes, she was tall and had the deep voice, "but so did Blanche". Jk about the blanche part, I was quoting a GG episode. But Bea was not ugly.
@@J33-k3s That episode where she goes to a bar and sings. That was spine tingling.
26, still watching the Golden Girls after all these years ❤️
I always enjoyed watching this show!
Hello beautiful lady
Watching this on January 1, 2022... the day after Betty White died. ☹️☹️ heartbreaking. 💔💔
BS! Rue was friends with Bea, she convinced Bea to accept the roll! (Rue told me so in person 20 years ago!)
And worked on Maude too
Fabulous 💝💝💝
