With all of the streaming options available in 2021, why do many still spend their Sundays watching The Golden Girls on basic cable? What is it about this show that ended nearly 30 years ago where people of all ages, races, and sexualities come together and still laugh?
Jim Colucci is a writer and author, and back in 2016, he penned a book called Golden Girls Forever, a comprehensive look at the wildly popular program. He interviewed not only Bea Arthur, Betty White, and Rue McLanahan, but the creator Susan Harris, the writers, and even the actors playing bit or supporting roles. It was a 10-year passion project.
Check Your Brain's Tony Mazur had a Zoom conversation with Jim about the show in general, how the concept of older women living in the same house in Miami came together, his experience being in the audience for a season seven taping, and the massive popularity the Golden Girls still carries to this day.
Jim's book is available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Golden-Girls-Forever-Unauthorized-Behind/dp/0062422901
