Golden Girls The Musical — Page 2

So who would play each woman in Golden Girls, the Musical?

I'm thinking Elaine Paige, Patti Lupone, Betty Buckley sort of casting.

KB

I remember that!

Sophia: My name is Melanie Griffith.
and then when Dorothy was going to leave, she said Come on Melanie!

And then Michele said to Rose after Rose asked for her to go over a statement again

"Yes Rose. I'll explain it to you afterwards like last time"

hahhhaa YES. Genuis that woman is.. a freaking genius I tell ya! lol

*runs off to find that video of the Golden Girls*

Heh -- not just you.. I noticed those things as well. :) And I thought it was just me lol

---

"And the visits from that great dog Dreyfuss from next door?"

Loved the dog. LOL and I used to love watching "Empty Nest" to see Sophia visit. Which show came first, "Empty Nest" or "Golden Girls?" I thought it was Empty Nest and Golden Girls was a spin-off from that?

"Thanks.... for the medicare
For Blue Cross and Blue Shield
For a hip that finally healed...
We thank you.... so much....."

Not quite, CJR. I don't remember it exactly, but there is another line after the one about the hip. Something about "generic is a steal."

Empty Nest was a spin-off of The Golden Girls. I think a show spinned-off Empty Nest. It was about the Bachelor who lived next door. I think his name was Max. He used to bug Harry all the time.

Did anyone buy the DVD or VHS of Nunsense with Rue as Mother Superior? Is she funny? Im sure she is at the end of Act I. I dont know whether to buy it or not.

If you're looking for the episode of Golden Girls with Michele in it, it's called "Great Expectations." (On a Michele related note; She was also in a few episodes of Law & Oder: SVU and one episode of Quantum Leap).

As for Nunsense: I saw the video with Rue. She is very funny, but, yes, I would kind of agree on the singing. (She tries to sing, but it just doesn't come out right.) I would still recommend the video. Also, she was in the production of The Women. I have no idea if it's out on video, I did see on PBS a while ago, so who knows.

"Some weird coincidences only a psycotic fan like myself would catch...."

Here are two more...

The actor who played the waiter posing as Blanche's date at the banquet when they all had the flu was the same actor who played Rose's doctor when she thought she might be HIV positive.

AND

The same actor played two of Rose's boyfriends; Arnie, the first man she slept w/ after Charlie died and Miles, the college professor.


One of my favorite Golden Girls moment...
The girls are in a drugstore before they go on a cruise. Blanche
looks over at a shelf and suggests they get some "protection."
Of course, Rose sees everything on the shelf except the condoms, including a Nestle's crunch. Exasperated, as she usually is when dealing with Rose, Dorothy shouts, CONDOMS,ROSE! CONDOMS! CONDOMS! CONDOMS! Then the clerk tells Dorothy to calm down and asks her if she just got out of prison and proceeds to call for a price check on the condoms! Blanche and Dorothy have the lambskins, and Rose has the ultra-sensative. In black. ROTFLMAO!

I am cracking up at that Just out of prison line. LOL!!!!

I remember the first time I found out what a La Niye was. I used that term from then on. lol It reminds me of when I was little, and my friend Kristina & I were bored, so my mom suggested we play Chinese school on Kristina's stoop....I had no idea what a STOOP was! My my is from Brooklyn...I'm not. LOL I found out it was an outside set of stairs. NY terminology.

Back to the Golden Girls, I was just watching the episode when Blanche's brother announces that he is going to marry his boyfriend and she is upset by it. Then she realizes how stupid and selfish she is being. I was not even aware that gay marriage was legal in any US state back then. ?

I beleive la niye is spelled launai or something similar to that

---

Now that is a cast! Well, with the exception of Harvey. LOL

I can totally picture Jane, Bernadette, and Bebe. Kristin Chenoweth would make a great Sophia! As long as they put a lot of old lady make-up on her like they did for Estelle (who ironically is the youngest of the Golden Girls).


I just thought of something! In about 20+ years, Bernadette will be Sophia! She is sicilian. LOL

Dorothy: Thrice! Who the hell says thrice?
Rose: It's a word
