Sadly, another Golden Girl has left us. Bea Arthur, Dorthoy Zbornak, the self-confident, "straight woman," heroine of the late-1980's/early 1990's TV program, died yesterday. It's another blow for comedy worldwide. The NY Times called her a "battle-ax," and that's such a great metaphor. Bea, we'll miss you.
Last summer, Estelle Getty, who played Sophia on The golden Girls, died, and I sadly blogged about it here. That's two in less than a year! Hang on Betty White and Rue McClanahan! Keep going strong!
