YES! That was most beautiful version I've ever heard and so well performed by Bea. I have always regretted she never recorded this song on an album anywhere. But that scene, at least in my view, should have been an Emmy award winning moment. She knows how to convey such emotion and whimsy in her singing. Truly a wonderful moment.
I've seen an interview where she said it was her favorite. And I can certainly understand why she liked doing it. It's silly, it makes people laugh. She liked making people laugh.
dorothy singing what'll i do was a very much needed moment for her character. throughout this season the jokes about her looks and her inability to find men were absurdly higher than any other seasons, but this scene squashes over all of it and puts dorothy in a situation that takes her already established talent for singing and pumps it up ten fold; in this moment she is finally given a raw and earnest moment to show her elegance, her poise, and her beauty - this scene is hers, she is the main attraction of this scene; nullifying any jabs at her beauty from up until this point. it's gratifying when the character who is always picked on gets their time to truly glow. this scene BELONGED to dorothy, it was beauty, it was elegance, it was justice for her character.
Also what I really liked about that scene was the pianist was really kind & inviting, giving Dorothy the opportunity & encouraging her as she started to sing. The whole scene was just so well done. :)
Sometimes people forget that Rue wasn't really a slut, Betty wasn't really dumb, and Estelle wasn't really that old. But, the jabs at Dorothy's looks, it was really how Bea looked. I'd hope she never took any of it personal, but it did sadden me a bit that her looks were the butt of the joke when in reality she was so beautiful and so elegant and talented.
I've probably rewatched The Golden Girls series more than 3 times, but still every time I hear "Miami, You've Got Style", I can't help but smile and tear up a bit. These girls brought so much joy into the lives of me, my mom and aunt, and is one of the things that always brings us together.
I love the guy who salutes the girls while they’re singing “Over There” to Blanche. 🤣 And didn’t Rue say Blanche singing “I Wanna Be Loved By You” was one of her favorite scenes?
People are allowed to dislike things, it's just not for them. Not everyone has to like everything you like to have a valid opinion. Frankly who cares if other people dislike this? I'm tired of these sorts of comments.
"What'll I do" always makes me tear up because my dad and I loved this song and we sang together everytime this show really was our favorite I miss you dad Rest In Peace ❤
Holy cow Rue did a phenomenal job on I Wanna Be Loved by You. It's very difficult to pull off that sort of comedic physicality whilst singing. Everyone one of these ladies earned their Emmys that's for sure.
I always remembered “Thanks For The Medicare” while dealing with my parents’ confusing medical stuff. Helped immensely. The way she can’t stay on key to save her life is a treasure.
The Sonny n Cher routine was the best. Must say Dorothy looks gorgeous with the long hair , even better than Cher. It was hilarious 🤣 Thanks for the memories 🙏💕💕💕
Nope, I recently rewatched the entire show because it reminds me of my grandmother from Mum's side of the family - RIP Granny Ivy and RIP the four fantastic cast members who gave us so much laughter and joy
How time flies so fast. I can't believe that most of them passed away already except Ms. Betty White. It makes me smile, laugh and sad at the same time every time i watch their re runs. , it is like it all happen today. This is the classic tv movies that will always innocent and beautiful at the same time. I love them ALL
I still can't believe that they're all gone, and I'm not ashamed to admit that that fact hurts a lot. RIP Estelle Getty (July 25, 1923 - July 22, 2008), Bea Arthur (May 13, 1922 - April 25, 2009), Rue McClanahan (February 21, 1934 - June 3, 2010), and Betty White (January 17, 1922 - December 31, 2021). You will all be missed, a lot.
Those are good, but you gotta hit hard like Sophia and her sister: Whoever left the dislikes: may their marinara sauce never cling to their pasta and may they put their dentures in backwards and chew their heads off
This show is kind of my guilty pleasure... Never fails to make me laugh and cheer me up! Still, there are quite some serious issues which open a conversation, specially back in the late 80s and 90s... all in all one of my all time favourite shows with an exceptional cast 😊

I love this show. My favorite was when Dorothy and Blanche went to the Rusty Anchor and Dorothy became popular. Then to get the men's attention Blanche wore that red dress and tried to sing, "I Wanna Be Loved By You". 🤣
I still cannot believe that they're all gone, a fact which hurts a lot. And I mean a lot. RIP Estelle Getty (July 25, 1923 - July 22, 2008), Bea Arthur (May 13, 1922 - April 25, 2009), Rue McClanahan (February 21, 1934 - June 3, 2010), and Betty White (January 17, 1922 - December 31, 2021). You will all be missed.
I get that Medicare song stuck in my head all the time, in particular the part where she says “we thank you, so much..” Anytime I want to give a sarcastic thank you, it pops in
With all of them are gone now, it really bring tears to watch this show again even I have watched all 180 episodes a hundred times already, laughed endlessly, and still never get tired of watching them again and again. Miss these lovely and amazing Golden Girls.. 🧡🧡⭐RIP to the last beloved Golden Girl, Betty White... ⭐⭐🧡
Golden girls reminds me of my childhood so much. Not just because I watched it as a child but my mother and grandmother worked at a nursing home. Child care wasn't really a market then, so I grew up in a nursing home. Estelle Getty reminds me so much of a resident named Tamp, tiny little lady but wouldn't hesitate to be feisty.
This is so funny!! I ♥️♥️ the Sonny and Cher thing! That chicken stuffing song is so annoyingly funny!! What a beautiful classic voice Bea Arthur had !!!!
Happy Birthday Betty. You and Allen can celebrate together. Thank you for the laughs and all your entertainment throughout the many years. We will miss you and we love you, your smiles, dimples and sparkling eyes. ❤💝💖🥰😘🤗
Dorothy’s “BABE…. I got you BABE” gets me everytime
One of the best comedy scenes on tv, ever
"Miami you're cuter than an intrauterine" is a such a bop tho
@Eu Doar Eu give her all the awards
True...
Right? I want the rest of the lyrics written!
WHAT
Straight BARS!

-The girls: Mr. Sandman.
-Dorothy: YES
I love Dorothy's voice ❤️
1954. The Chordettes,
Was popular when I was a kid and we had just moved form Brooklyn to Queens.
I do too ! Never fails to put a smile on my face at that part 😂☺️
I love Bea voice too it is the best❤
Dorothy singing "what'll I do" gives me a chill.... Amazing... 🤩🤗
Yes. My absolute favourite. There's a youtube clip on just that. I go watch it whenever I feel like it.

It's a wonderful example of just how beautiful an alto voice can be
Bea was a powerful singer!!
@@StoptheInsanityofRegressivism she was on Broadway before she was on tv I always loved to hear her sing
Sophia: Poor, lonely, turkey lurkey.....poor, dateless, self basting turkey lurkey...
Dorothy: Ma😡
🤣🤣😅
I never noticed ‘self basting’ and its my fave episode 😂😂😂 omg ! guess im always laughing too hard at that point
“Self-basting” takes me tf out 😂😂😂
Bea and Betty are trained singers, I guess. They both have lovely voices.
Bea Arthur had her share of musicals in her hey day! No surprise there but unknown about Betty White!
Yes they were.
@@moonlightfalcon7038 Betty had a variety show, in the 50's, and sang, a lot.
@@moonlightfalcon7038 Betty was actually studying to be an opera singer before she got big on TV!
So where just gonna ignore Rue singing “I Wanna be Loved by You” and Estelle singing “Thanks for the Medicare”
I love Sophia singing Thanks for the Medicare. 🤣
I memorized that the first time I heard it and had no idea what Medicare was. I still like singing it🤣

My all time favorite 😂😂😂😂😂
Bea Arthur had this beautiful booming Alto. We miss you funny woman, 1922-2009. 🥺💔
Rue really enjoyed doing the “I Wanna be Loved By You” scene
Was her favourit Scene
Cause it's so funny.
She's been on record saying it was her favorite scene of Blanche's during the show's run
I've seen an interview where she said it was her favorite. And I can certainly understand why she liked doing it. It's silly, it makes people laugh. She liked making people laugh.

I’m sorry I busted out laughing when Sophia started singing “Thanks for the Medicare”.
🤣🤣
Same 🤣🤣🤣
I always thought it was funny but now that I'm older I understand *why* it's funny. XD
Why sorry? Its a comedy!
Bea Arthur's rendition of What Do I Do has to be a classic. I just love it.
I know; it’s extraordinary.
Yes, it was stunning.
Who was the original singer?
Holy shit. I never saw that before. Got misty eyed.
@@stevenhoward1233 Yes, me too. Sends shivers down my spine.
Rose's face when "Cher" walks in!! Priceless.
This show gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling every time I watch it.
Especially during the winter.
True. During the winter is something else
Me too. It's therapeutic.
It's always been a comfort show for me since childhood.
@@AmandaLove-uo2du Same here 🙋🏻♀️
B and Estelle being Sunny and Cher gets me every time
Bea, and it is spelled Sonny and Cher.
I like the way you spelled their names! Don't change it. ❤️
Bea Arthur has an amazing voice!
Yes she did! A voice like gold!
Bea was the original Vera in Mame on B'dway with Angela Lansbury
She really does.
The fact all four of them could sing..one of the best things about the show.
I've probably rewatched The Golden Girls series more than 3 times, but still every time I hear "Miami, You've Got Style", I can't help but smile and tear up a bit. These girls brought so much joy into the lives of me, my mom and aunt, and is one of the things that always brings us together.
I didn’t know anyone else cried at that!
Rue McClanahan was amazing in that bar scene. Top notch physical comedy! 😂
When Dorothy looks back at the men adoring her whilst singing WHAT'LL I DO? at the Rusty Anchor: it's hilarious!
Singing to the baby was funny. Boom Boom Boom Dorothy voice was so deep
I didn’t know that Bea Arthur was such a good singer! I learned something new about her!
She’s a Tony Award winner! A Broadway legend! She’s more than a good singer.
She was in broadway man😂
@@shahd986 like I said in my original comment, I learned something new.
@@LiamMcK1969 I love her rendition What Would I Do?
She had that totally theatrical powerful even better than Liza Minnelli voice!
When Dorothy and Sophia did the Sonny and Cher thing I was dying I was hoping it would go longer and Dorothy is gorgeous as Cher
How Blanche destroys “I wanna be loved by you” is hilarious! I cried tears laughing! 😂😂😂
I think Marilyn must have done the same, up above ☁️💋☁️
I was having trouble pooping after eating too much chili, then when I saw her shoes flying. What a beautiful world!
Blanche is Marilyn Monroe if she hadn't of died
Ikr. She totally botched it it's hilarious!
The Fabulous Baker Boys 😂
OMG Sophia and Dorothy as Sonny and Cher.😂😂👏🏻👏🏻 Side splitting stuff!
Who's Cheech and who's Chong had me on the floor laughing?!¡
I bet Cher loved that scene

Okay Bea was HITTING those low notes
Don't know why I got teary-eyed at 'I Got You, Babe.' Thanks for the laughs, ladies. You are missed.
Bea channeling Cher was Gold.
I love the guy who salutes the girls while they’re singing “Over There” to Blanche. 🤣 And didn’t Rue say Blanche singing “I Wanna Be Loved By You” was one of her favorite scenes?
Did you notice Stritctand from Back to the Future gave the salute
Rue did say that
They're all finally together in heaven. My favorites. Still watching them on Hulu
Then and Designing Women are pretty much all I watch on Hulu.
And, thanks to reruns, they still entertain us🥰🥰🥰🥰
How I pray all four of them got themselves right with Jesus Christ and are with HIM in paradise..
@@davidleavitt835 Why do you people say stuff like this? Sophia’s actor is Jewish, and it’s almost comical how little self awareness you have.
Still GOLDEN...✨️✨️✨️🪄🪄🪄🪄
To the person who gave this a thumbs down,you evidently can’t appreciate good quality acting.These ladies are AWESOME
@Ameerah McSweeney TH-cam made it so we can no longer see the dislikes. I believe only the person who uploaded the video can see those now.
A dislike would mean No sense of comedy. Life isnt perfect and TGG played life like it is.

That sonny & cher segment has roof breaking laughs that shake the sky! I never forget that scene!
The Sonny and Cher part will forever be one of my favourites 🥰😂
Blanch on the piano is classic hillarious.
Dorothy's really deep "bom bom bom bom"'s get me everytime.
And her "Yeees?"
Dorothy singing What'll I Do...
I did not know I needed this in my life...!! 😍🥰❤
The girls singing Mr. Sandman to the baby is the most wholesome one.
It's official no one can talk smack about their singing 🎵
"What'll I do" always makes me tear up because my dad and I loved this song and we sang together everytime this show really was our favorite I miss you dad Rest In Peace ❤
Holy cow Rue did a phenomenal job on I Wanna Be Loved by You. It's very difficult to pull off that sort of comedic physicality whilst singing. Everyone one of these ladies earned their Emmys that's for sure.
i love Beatrice Arthur's voice so much
She’s terrific
I always remembered “Thanks For The Medicare” while dealing with my parents’ confusing medical stuff. Helped immensely. The way she can’t stay on key to save her life is a treasure.
Golden Girls are forever golden.
Actually, Bea started out as a Singer and she sang "Hard Hearted Hannah" on Maude too. 👍
i love that scene!
One of Betty White's earliest aspirations was also to be a singer. But she strained her vocal cords and curtailed her singing.
Thought she started out with the Marines,
Rose: Miami is nice! I'll say it thrice! 😂 Sophia:We thank you so much! That "much" was a horrible note!
The Sonny n Cher routine was the best. Must say Dorothy looks gorgeous with the long hair , even better than Cher. It was hilarious 🤣
Thanks for the memories 🙏💕💕💕
"So is intrauterine," lives rent free in my head. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fun fact bea Arthur was on Broadway and had won a tony award before she was a tv actress
The Miami song at the end is amazing I can’t believe they didn’t win!!
You can never go wrong with Golden Girls!
Nope, I recently rewatched the entire show because it reminds me of my grandmother from Mum's side of the family - RIP Granny Ivy and RIP the four fantastic cast members who gave us so much laughter and joy

Bea Arthur sings a song in Star Wars Xmas special. It's like the only part that's not completely horrible.
That, and the animated section with Boba Fett.
I still sing "going to stuff the chicken" lol... Am I the only one!?
