Critic Reviews
Feb 27, 2013
Season 1 Review:
This wonderful half-hour pilot has distinguished this show as the very best of the crop of new series this fall. The writing, by the bawdy, brilliant Susan Harris, who was lured back to television by the promise of doing a show with the kind of characters seldom seen on the tube, is on a par with her wittiest days as the creator of "Soap". [14 Sept 1985, p.D5]

Season 1 Review:
The reason it works so well is that performers and script are ideally matched; they join forces to obliterate resistance. [14 Sept 1985, p.C1]

Season 1 Review:
Not only does The Golden Girls offer meaningful portrayals of women in their post-middle-age years, but, as a bonus, it's one of those TV rarities, a comedy that's funny. Very funny. [13 Sept 1985, p.C1]

Season 1 Review:
If anybody ever doubted the funny-lady talents of Bea Arthur, even after ''Maude,'' then her many golden moments in Golden Girls should win her a permanent place in everybody's hierarchy of comic genius, ranking with Sid Caesar and Lucille Ball...The Golden Girls is adult, literate, witty, poignant, funny. And, oh yes, honest. [12 Sept 1985, p.26]

Season 1 Review:
Watching Golden Girls, you get the feeling that Harris had the good
sense to fit the brand of humor with the actresses. There is a kind of Borsch
Belt, take-my-wife-please approach to chasing the laughs, with everything in
place but the nightclub rim shot, the obligatory ba-bump from the drummer on
top of the punch line. [13 Sept 1995, p.5]
