Manage episode 306701362 series 3004638
On Saturday, September 14th 1985 at 9PM, The Golden Girls premiered at number 1 with a 43 share, reaching an estimated 21 and a half million homes. It stayed in in the top 10 for six consecutive seasons, earning 68 Emmy nominations over 180 episodes, but it all started with a pilot.
In this episode, we learn about The Golden Girls pilot episode, an actor named Charles Levin, Quentin Tarantino and Sophia's facelift. Mistakes were made, facts were certainly butchered and at the end we learned an important lesson about friendship. Or we didn't.
Also, we drink Big Slice Juicy IPA from Three Notch'd in Charlottesville Virginia.
Show errata:
- It's six degrees of separation, not eight
- Golden Girls ran for seven seasons, not eight
