This am I got a Facebook message from Aimee, my freshman year college roomie saying, I'm watching Saturday Night Live and hoping there is a great Fired 'n' Fabulous post a brewing about your long-time obsession with the Golden Girls! This is why I love Aim—she remembers EVERYTHING. I know that I watched the show quite a bit back in the day, but I don't really recall being obsessed. But, if she says I was, then it is true. (I'm pretty sure I have subconsciously blocked out 95 percent of anything that occurred freshman year!)
I'm not sure if this will come as a surprise to you guys or not, but my favorite GG was Dorothy. (R.I.P., Bea!) Wit, dry humor, comedic timing—no one did it better. So who watched SNL last night? I didn't, but I'm just now catching up on all the clips on Hulu. "Swimming in the ocean with my blue jeans on because I love that heavy feeling." Molly Shannon is freakin' awesome! I saw a crazy fan run up the steps after her at a fancy Japanese resturant, Matsuri, one time. Who does that? Sure, you want to, but you don't do it. This was probably my favorite skit even though Betty had a smaller part. She still kicked butt though—big ups, B!
So who was your favorite Golden Girl and WHY? What did you think of the SNL skits last night?

ReplyDeleteI think when I was younger, Sophia was my favorite. but now as an older person, Blanch does it for me, i think its prob because i understand her sex jokes and daughters of the confederacy jokes. its pure gold!
