Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)
^ in Golden Girls, she was made up to look much older than she really was. I think she was the same age as here Bea Arthur.
Bea Arthur is actually a year older than Estelle Getty.

I watched that show when I was eight years old, and even though I missed all the subtle humor, I liked the banter between mother and daughter.
...thank you for being a friend, Estelle.
g'night....
