Bea Arthur was so amazing one of the best actresses ever.
My Mother in law was Bea Arthur’s twin the voice the style of dress everything. Everyone called her Maude her name was Barb but she was always Maude. My mother in law was 6 ft. Tall. My children loved to watch the golden girls and have cheesecake hoping they would eat one on the show.
I miss Bea Arthur no one can compare to her.
Bea Arthur got better with age. Like cheese, wine, and so forth never will be another like her.
I remember her visit for this interview. Bea actually traveled across to Windsor, Ontario Canada for a visit to buy some western/country clothing from the shop next to my mother's chocolatier shop in downtown Windsor. Her visit caused quite the stir and we heard all about it for days!!!! Good times...
God the 2 woman talked over each other and talked over Bea
The host were so chaotic, I couldn't continue. Constantly interrupting Bea, talking over each other, jumping to the next subject. I couldn't focus!
I still hate that she's gone. Getting backstage with her in 2005 San Francisco was such a memory (for her one woman show).
Bea is gorgeous here. I love and miss her so😢
I was working at a place called Windsor Western Wear, in downtown Windsor, Ontario, Canada.. located directly across Detroit River. Imagine my surprise when Bea Arthur walked into my store and started browsing. She didn't act like she expected to be recognized, so I didn't approach her that way. I acted like a saleslady, and asked her if she was looking for anything in particular. She had a niece or nephew that had a birthday coming and she was looking for ideas. As soon as she gave me the opening, I showed her the store lol. I think that was my way of acknowledging her celebrity status because I didn't normally do that for regular customers LOL I do remember we had a moment in that I met her eyes, and she knew I knew that we knew who she was and I wasn't bugging her about it. She mentioned she was in Detroit to do a show, whatever that meant, and I"m going to say this was ths show she did. And, in regards to her size. They always comments that she's a big lady, but I looked down at her. Not status wise lol But she was shorter then me, I"m almost 5'8, and she didn't look like a big lady. To me, that meant that Rose and Blanche were TINY women. Anyways, she's the only celebrity I ever met and although we spent a tiny bit of time in each others company I didn't act weird. which i'm super grateful for lol. She was very gracious, too, about me showing her everything we had lol.. very gracious. ^_^ I was only 22, then.
I discovered this and watched it 1/28/23
If Blanche and Rose were tiny, then, my God, Sophia must’ve been 4’. Lol
Great story. I've only met Anjelica Huston and William H. Macy in person (exchanged words) and kept to myself. They're just like us! But lucky--and talented.
That is a great story. You sound like a sweetheart!!
What a great story. Thank you for sharing.
This woman was a true talent. I would have loved to attend an acting class in which she was the teacher.
Wow she had a great singing voice
Comic genius! Her delivery of a line and comedic timing were brilliant....
She seemed very willing to connect with these local hosts and audience... She was the best!!!!
I saw her on Saturday Night Live and when everyone cheered as she walked out, you could see genuine surprise and thankful..actual thankfulness and gratefulness on Beas face. Love those golden ladies
Hello Angie
How are you doing today?
I always loved that about her. She didn't want all the MovieStar hype that came with being a celebrity. She just wanted to act and perform, which she was great at.
I can't believe the host went on at the beginning about how people stood up for Bea. Why not? Bea loved animals and would fight for animals. Bea was a great actress especially in Golden Girls! All that & more will always deserve an applause & she still would! Bea was so important to us & animals!!
I love Bea so so much !!!!!
I'm surprised she would do local television like this. So gracious of her to do so to promote the play. But such a delightful interview!
Bea was old school they do whatever necessary to promote their projects. You reach the people via local TV. Bea was no diva.
I always thought Bea Arthur was beautiful and elegant. I love her on Mame and The Golden Girls.👗👠
Bea Arthur was the funniest actress on Maude and the Golden girls.
Bingeing Maude is one of my favorite things to do... I'm glad that Bea Arthur still has so many fans
She looks stunning in this interview gorgeous eyes
I love Her I love Her So So Much .. ❤
R.I.P. Beatrice Arthur.
Those two women are getting on my damn nerves because they won’t shut the help and let Bea speak properly!!!
An enlisted Marine!!! She's so impressive!
My mother adored Bea Arthur since she supported ERA
Great interviewers. Incredible actors.
Miss her 😢
I enjoyed this very much, Bea is my idol. Thank you for sharing !
Glad you enjoyed it!

That's the first time I've ever seen Bea even remotely acknowledge the animosity between her and Betty 😂
10/10
There was no animosity between them - they were all professional actresses and as far as gossip or dirt on the show there really wasn't any like you get on some shows.
@@gazXspace False. Sorry to burst your bubble
Bea looked great in this interview. Thanks for posting.
@@MIS315 Yeah, because I heard Betty White say herself in an interview that Bea Arthur didn't like her very much.
@@MIS315 It's true, you need to get out of your bubble.
The hosts are annoying.
I love Bea Arthur
Looks like this was a really nice talk show back then, but boy did they talk way too much over Bea Arthur and the other guests!!#😡😡 geez!!!!!! They never shut up!!! Loved Rene and her husband Mr. Bolonga.❤❤
It was a great talk show especially when Marilyn co-hosted with her husband. Much better show. (This version only last 1 season)
Thank you so much for this gem!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching.
Here's a link to some other gems interviews you may like & I'm finding more.

I saw her play in Beverly Hills. Loved it.
COMPANY went Hollywood. Love Bea.
Bra Arthur my favorite of GG! Loved her in Maude too!
Hadn't seen this interview, thanks for posting.
Thanks for watching! I'll post some more gems.
I can’t believe that Beatrice Arthur was in Detroit and I missed her. I believe she was at the Fisher with a play that didn’t do well and that Nanette Fabray replaced her went to Broadway for a very very short run.
@@johnpickford4222 She was in Detroit performing in Bermuda Avenue Triangle.
Bea and Renee...❤
Wow what a classic!. Thanks for posting 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it! Here's another classic - and interview with Lauren Bacall th-cam.com/video/FpZE0VgcIcg/w-d-xo.html
@@ProducerJoe Thank You!.
This was awesome!
This show was a bit chaotic! 😂 But it was fun to watch!
....I dont like the blond...horrible..
Love Bea Arthur, and she is fun in this interview.
But those hosts seem like they just want to bicker and one up each other. One of them needs to go. That said, thanks for posting this.
Me too [Love Bea]
You should also check out this interview with Lauren Bacall especially how she handles the hosts

Love this more of this classic show
I'm glad you enjoyed. I just posted an interview with the Lauren Bacall th-cam.com/video/FpZE0VgcIcg/w-d-xo.html
I use to watch Kelly and company when I was little Detroit my city ❤️
If you liked watching Kelly and Company, I bet you'll love this episode. Enjoy ! th-cam.com/video/-HZNwI5NeH8/w-d-xo.html
The two hosts of this show were awful. They kept interrupting and talking over Bea and the others. It was very annoying. Very unprofessional.
Glad you said it...couldn't agree with you more. They come across to me as a couple of complete flakes. From Bea's demeanor almost from start to finish, i think she was a little annoyed with them as well.
@@blinderII they were just star struck they didn’t mean no harm.
they wanted some gossip.she drank every day but you couldn’t tell and she hated betty white.all of the golden girls meant business when it came to animsls.she was a poor sport when it came to Pamela Andersons Roast and walked out early..
Agree
Very irritating
I like walking around the house barefoot myself. I only wear shoes when I leave the house to do errands. As soon as I get home the shoes are the first thing that comes off. I mean why wear shoes when you don't have to.
I have to say that was a terrible show. Nothing against Bea Arthur which was the only reason I watched it but the two hosts were not very good.
I agree. Those hosts just kept stepping all over each other and tried to push their own agendas. When you have three celebrities on, they are supposed to be the stars. And especially in the first two segments, I'm sure that Bea Arthur (who was famously shy) felt like she was getting double teamed by these two women who wouldn't allow anyone to breathe. This was a good get for the station, but they fumbled the golden opportunity away. This could have be done so much better.........
Thank you for sharing.i adore bea arthur.but these two women who host this show were crass to mention the tabloid stories about alleged friction on the golden girls set.bea Arthur is a professional and classy woman and didn't deserve to be slammed with such seedy questions like that.
Hello from Milwaukee!
Hello from New York!
Bless them

Good lord these hosts are so annoying 😮 Poor Bea 😢
i truly believe bea was a bit shortsighted in her decision to leave the golden girls after 7 seasons. to
know that EVERYONE, cast and crew, wanted to continue for 1 or 2 more seasons is sad. obviously her decision must be respected but she should’ve looked to the future and pushed through knowing how much joy would be brought to millions of people for decades after her passing
I actually liked Golden Palace. I agree. There were a few more seasons left in Golden Girls with Bea.
@@DCGuy1997 If she were in Golden Palace, it definitely would have been lightning in a bottle. It’s like Superman losing a head or a limb. If one of the 5 components is missing, it’s deemed useless!
i hate when cast leave but i would hate to work on a tv series and would you rather the show overstay its welcolme
@@bbbb-db9gr im curious have you seen the mary tyler moore show cause the originally the wanted betty to do blanche cause of sue ann nivens do you think it would of worked or no i feel bad saying rue can do the flirt character better than betty
I believe some of the cast members later said that she had struggled with melancholy, and taking care of a very ill mother. She was quite down.
Starts at 4:22
You post full "Kelly and Company"/"Company" episodes? I might have to follow
More Full Episodes are coming - the host, Marilyn Turner, came on with no makeup!
Please fix the audio. It's distorted and all forced into the right side speaker/headphone only. Thanks.

2:04 What an odd font. It looks like, “Whar popular relevision show did Maude ger her srarr on?”
Ayeeee Bermuda
She was living in Atlanta and married to Lucas for about 3 years at this point.
Fiction, psycho!
Who U Talking About 6:23
19:53
That's for me to know and you to find out 😏
These two hosts couldnt stand each other it seems
Bea Arthur vehemently denied she was a Marine when there’s overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Regardless, Semper Fi!
What is the name of the African-American interviewer? She seemed very good at her job.
The poor man who asked a question about who dressed the Golden Girls got completely ignored because of the interviewers' stupid earring comment.
I was in Colorado in 1995.
So late 80's. But this was 90's?
1995 according to the vid
I don't know, the mother in the Carol Burnette show was kind of off the wall.
Bea Arthur was too protective and she seemed uncomfortable and not relaxed talking to the audience, her fans. The other two guests were fun and lively.
Bea was incredibly shy.
I’ve seen clips of her on several talk shows and she was always like that. She was uncomfortable with impromptu discussion. In acting, she’d never improvise, instead always working and reworking a script until it was perfect and then she stuck to that finished product.
No, I loved her, but not good with those interviews.
I thought she handled the entire thing with grace and aplomb, as usual
Bea was marvelous during this interview, but it is well-known that she did not enjoy appearing on talk shows to answer questions. She was shy and always prepared, so this type format made her uncomfortable.
I'm taller than she was..
are the two female hosts dating?
Just stupid. A bad SNL sketch.
Actually, the white woman was married to the older man who used to co-host. It was called "Kelly and Company". He probably retired.
Both Marilyn Turner and Her Husband and Co-Host John Kelly are now Deceased.
I love you Bea, but the host NO just NO
Oh grow up
@@Fedderchini you grow up and get a life! 🙄
Bea Arthur always seemed grumpy to me
12:02
AWSOME FIND!!!!!!LOVE BEA AS MAUDE!!!!!never golden girls fan as Bea in my opinion had too much weight loss and plastic surgery in the early 80s. she didnt look like the way she looked on Maude.she should have aged as a natural woman instead of that weight loss and exstensise plastic surgery.
The reason Bea Arthur got extensive plastic surgery was because her first husband, Gene Saks left her for a younger woman.
@@harperstacey9604 OMG Really?i liked her better as a real woman......
Plastic surgery? You need to get back in your rocking chair...
*Awesome
A WANNABE OPRAH LOL
Is that her Husband ! He is dishy
Joe Bologna was Rene Taylor’s husband until he passed recently. Rene played mother Sylvia Fine on “The Nanny”
@@lindav.johnson9523 He didn't pass away recently. He died 5 ½ years ago in 2017.
Bea Arthur seems very sectional here, she'd probably vote for trump if she was still alive. This interview has made a difference in my view of her here.
You obviously don't know much about her lol. She was a huge supporter of the LGBT community and womens rights. She'd be nothing even close to a trump supporter if she was alive today. She'd probably be on twitter attacking him if anything lol.
@Ernest Chacon Good Lord, where are you getting that from? Your projecting more about yourself than you are in your observation of Bea's character and stated concerns. Bea actually said she was not publicly political.
@@bluzmansb5683 Hey age affects the mind.
I've only just this second realised, Bea is actually a man
@ G C GO AWAY... The rock you slid out from under is still there... Do us a favor and return to the abyss.
Also what ppl don’t know is she was a stellar U.S. Marine Sgt. Semper fi ~ B.Arthur
bea was my pal.. loved loved her
