Golden Girls - Casting Dorothy (Paley Center, 2006)

[RMS1103]

I was quite young, 17 or 18 maybe, when I saw Estelle in "Torch Song Trilogy" She was Great.

So weird how Rue was watching Estelle in Torch Song Trilogy, and not knowing that she'd be working with her on a TV show for seven years

Ads to watch a 2 minute video SUCK.

@ScinLaeca358 Use adblock then and stop complaining.

This video should be titled 'Casting Sophia' and not Dorothy.

Picture it: 3 adoring actresses die 3 different years: 2008, 2009 and 2010. Estelle Getty died July 2008, Bea Arthur April 2009 and Rue McClanahan June 2010! RIP all three of you; you will be missed!

I love Betty and Rue's playful picking at each other, just shows what close friends they were!!

RIP Estelle, Bea and Rue.................. i LOVED yu all

PS: weird how they are dying a year after each other.... 2008, 2009 n 2010...

Betty, the oldest survives!! :'(

[ammarios]

@FSUfanOFtheBAND actually Betty White WAS/IS the oldest. Estelle was younger than Bea , and Rue was the youngest by 12 years, and Betty was the oldest.. their charaters weren't cast in those ages, but those were their real ages

[FSUfanOFtheBAND]

@ammarios Yeah now I see that Estelle was 1 year younger than Betty... wow They can make people look old!

[yvonnita2]

@FSUfanOFtheBAND in real life Betty White is the oldest.

Oh i love my girls :'(

[Darienlover999]

@yvonnita2 Makes me terrified of 2011...

[yvonnita2]

@Darienlover999 I know!! The thought itself is horrifying!!! Let's hope NOT!! :'(

[queercat]

@Darienlover999 Yes, but Betty is in good health!!! She will be around for a bit longer!
