I love Sophia's witty lines --- the best

I'd like to correct myself regarding her age, as well as on the star of BJ and the Bear: it should be Greg Evigan and not Peter deLouise.

Ano nga yung title nung sitcom na nagko-cross dress si Tom Hanks at isang friend nya just so they can rent an all-women apartment?

I also like Benson, with the classy wit and humor of Robert Gillaume (?). I also remember The Hardy Boys (Shawn Cassidy and Parker Stevenson) and CHiPs (Erik Estrada)

I think we both grew up watching foreign TV shows aired at GMA when their tag line was still "Where you belong".

[greenlaser]

Game shows!

The Price Is Right
The Family Feud
Blockbusters
Name That Tune
Face The Music
Card Sharks
The 25T Dollar Pyramid
Jeopardy
Wheel Of Fortune

Ok I have to include this....remember I.Q.7 every Saturday in Student Canteen!

[kireigonjin]

Ha-ha, I think I will have to agree that we do watched the same english shows, greenlaser. And those game shows you mentioned were unforgettable. Until today, I still use the line from Name That Tune as a joke, though with a twist (e.g., I can name that tune in THREE YEARS ).

Dagdag ko sa list: That's Incredible (was this mentioned already?)

And yeah, that was Bossom Buddies with Tom Hanks

eto pa trivia on the golden girls:

- Bea's two hit shows (Golden Girls & Maude) ended because she decided to leave.
- Estelle Getty (Sophia) is younger than her on screen daughter, Dorothy (Bea Arthur).
- Rue McClanahan is actually the youngest "Golden Girl".
- Each "Golden Girl" won an Emmy Award for their work on the show.
- The Golden Girls were nominated for 57 Emmys. (7 of them for "Best Comedy Series")
- The Golden Girls has two spin-offs: "Empty Nest" and "The Golden Palace".
- According to the E! TV Tales, TGG shares a special coincidence with All In the Family. Both shows are the only two in television history where the main characters all won an Emmy Award.
- Bea Arthur hates cheesecake. Said dessert was featured in almost 100 episodes in the series.
- Betty White was originally supposed to play Blanche, and Rue McClanahan Rose. However, Betty didn't want to play another "sexpot" like Sue Ann Nivens. She was caught off-guard when they asked her to read for the part, but it turned out to be wonderful!
- Bea Arthur is 5' 9", and Estelle Getty is 4' 11". Bea Arthur was 3 months older than Estelle.
- It was Rue McClanahan's idea to give Blanche a Southern accent.
- Rose, Miles, and Angela were all on the Mary Tyler Moore show. Rose played Sue Ann Nivens, Miles was Rhoda's father, and Angela (Nancy Walker) played Rhoda's mother.
- Terry Hughes was considered the 5th "Golden Girl". As he was the director for 5 straight years. Rue McClanahan did not attend his farewell party.
- The first episode of The Golden Girls attracted more than 25 million viewers and was the #1 show that week, beating out the NBC powerhouse, The Cosby Show.
- Bea Arthur referred to Leslie Neilson as being "idiotic".
- Rue suspected that Estelle was intimidated by Bea.
- Bea actually wanted to leave the series after season 5 but was coaxed to stay for 2 more seasons. (thankfully!)
- The 4 girls performed in front of the royal family in London in 1988.
- Marc Sotkin came on as the chief writer on the Golden Girls in 1989 after long time collaborators Barry Fanaro and Nathan Morris decided to leave.
- Coco (The cook) was written out of the show after the first episode because Sophia was a much stronger character and they didn't need him.
- None of the Golden Girls have daughters in real life.
- The Executive Producer Susan Harris suffers from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
- Bea Arthur's birth name is Bernice Frankel.
- Estelle Getty suffered from stage fright every Friday night for 26 weeks.
- It took 45 minutes in make-up for Estelle to be transformed into Sophia.

Btw...Rue McClanahan revisited her Southern roots in THE FIGHTING TEMPTATIONS, starring Cuba Gooding Jr. & Beyonce Knowles

[stillwater]

Party of Five and Days of our Lives. I still remember gettin hooked at these series, and of course not without California Dreams, my special fav.

I also remember "La Traidora" from Channel 9 before MariMar came to life, not without a day that I watch this series.

[stillwater]

Yes, ST. ELSEWHERE, with the young Denzel Washington, I consider this as the best 'hospital' drama series, even better than E.R. This is one of first TV series to tackle the issue of AIDS, back when we still have a lot of misconceptions about this disease.

HILL STREET BLUES, it's theme song is ringing in my ears now!

PUNKY BREWSTER, whatever happened to Soleil Moonfry? Remember those funky colored Converse All Star Chuck Taylors she loves to wear, they're back in style!

Ahhhh, THE A TEAM with Mr. T as B.A. Barracus (that's B.A. for Bad Attitude).
