5.0 out of 5 stars GETTING TO KNOW THE GOLDEN GIRLS IN THEIR OWN WORDS!!! December 2, 2005
By Tamra J. Gibson
Amazon Verified Purchase
When I first learned this dvd would be available on Amazon I was delighted because Beatrice Arthur is my favorite Golden Girl, and I had missed seeing her intimate portrait when it aired on Lifetime. Needless to say I was absolutely thrilled to pop in the dvd and learn more about my favorite funny lady!!!

The main thing I most enjoy about the intimate portrait series are the interviews are in the star's own words, so you really get to know them more intimately! Bea, Rue, Betty, and Estelle we love you!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Girl Group On Television October 3, 2005
By DC
Of all the Golden Girls profiles aired, these are by far the most thorough and accurate tellings of each of the actresses' stories. And included here is perhaps one of the last (if not the last) interviews of Estelle Getty.

5.0 out of 5 stars For The Fans! August 8, 2006
By bcf91
This DVD proved to be quite a treat for fans of The Golden Girls when it was released. It features 4 wonderful specials on each of the Golden Girls: Bea Arthur, Estelle Getty, Betty White, and Rue McClanahan. Each episode lasts about 40 to 50 minutes long and is entertaining, yet very informative. What fan doesn't want to learn more about their favorite Golden Girl? I'm so glad this DVD was released. It's a treat for all the GG fans out there.

      GOLDEN GIRLS
      There are 7 seasons of The Golden Girls (1985-1992). The Golden Palace was on CBS after The Golden Girls was cancelled. However, Bea Aurther was not on the show. It only ran for one season.
