14 amazing Golden Girls gifts for the Dorothy, Blanche, Rose or Sophia in your life
The iconic Golden Girls debuted on our screens 37 years ago introducing the world to Dorothy, Rose, Blanche and Sophia.
The hit series which ran for seven seasons in the late 1980s and early 1990s treated viewers to sharp jokes and an incredible all-female cast.
The programme, which premiered on 14 September, 1985 took a refreshingly progressive look at LGBT+ issues on television, which in turn paved the way for other comedy shows to follow their lead.
If you’ve always been a fan of the show, or you’re a first time viewer after it dropped on Disney Plus in 2020, then you might want some The Golden Girls themed merch in your life.
