When Golden Girls first aired in 1985, it quickly became a smash hit. Part of its success was that it broke new ground regarding its portrayal of older women.
Unlike other television shows, which typically depicted older women as widows or grandmothers, Golden Girls focused on four friends living together and experiencing all the highs and lows of life after fifty.
The show was groundbreaking in depicting older women as independent, sexual beings with active social lives.
It was also one of the first television shows to openly discuss topics like homophobia, HIV/AIDS, and racism.
Thirty-seven years later, Golden Girls is still cherished by fans for its groundbreaking portrayal of older women. And while the show may be set in the 1980s, its themes are just as relevant today as they were then. 2022 NEW Golden Girls in Robes 4-Pack Funko Pop! Exclusive
