There where 3 episodes of Golden Girls that I could do with out I enjoyed the entire series but these 3 they are The one where Dorothy's brother dyes kind of a dumb episode the episode for Empty nest with Rita Moreno and the other one was where the pregnant teenager came to live because the father threw her out of the house.

The ones I'll pass on:

1. When Dorothy helps out that mentally ill guy who lives in a room and hasn't gone out in the real world in years.

2. Rose's cousin Sven comes to visit

3. The "Empty Nest" episode

Empty Nest
The two-parter where Rose has a heart attack (forget the name)
Mary Has a Little Lamb
Little Sister

The "Empty Nest" one
The one with Blanche's niece

Martin Mull; he's hillarious. Anyway, I agree with most of these here, except I kinda like "Empty Nest" and the one above. I could do without the entire last season, actually. I haven't seen all of them, but I don't like the ones I've seen, and the show lost something, I don't know what, in the last season in my opinion.

What happened in "Empty Nest"? Was that the one Dorothy got married in?

Anyway, I don't like the one where they open that restaurant and it burns down or the one where Sophia gets married to Max or the one when Rose's blind sister visits.

Well, all I know is that in "Empty Nest", "Sophia Petrillo" plays a guest role. And, Dorothy gets married on the season finale two-parter of "The Golden Girls", not Empty Nest.

As a Golden Girls Fan, I have to say that most of my least favorite episodes come from the last two years of the show.

Here are my 10 least favorite episodes:

10: Beatle Mania: The show in which Dorthoy falls in love with the guy from the BEatlesmania show.

9: Martin Mull episode: I found the Martin Mull episode boring and stupid. Mull is a funny actor and enjoyed him as Leon on ROseanne, but he was out of place here.

8: Moonlight Madness: Blanche throws a moonlight maddness party and Dorothy and Miles kiss passionately. I am sorry but I found that hard to believe that Dorothy would hurt Rose that way

7: Jeopardy episode: I did not think there was much to laugh about in that episode

6: Dorthoy's son the Bum; Dorothy's son comes home after losing his job and wife. He wants to live life with no responsiblities

5: the Hurricane is coming: This is the epsiode when Dorothy sister comes for a visit and she has an affair with Stan.

4. Rose's mother: on of the few early epsiodes I do not like because it made Rose seem mean

3: Sophia's job at the home: Dorothy lies to Sophia about her reason for being at a nursing home. She tells Sophia that it is a job, but in reality she just needs some one to watch sophia

2: Shady pines Nurse: Dorothy hires Shady Pines Angel of Death Nurse to watch sophia.

My least favorite episode is:

1: Slum lord episode: Dorothy and Stan are in trouble for being slam lords

i hate that ep. where they go on that game show its too stupid not to menition unrealistic for starters they talk to the model before the show in real life if any game show contestiant did that they would be yanked off the show imedlety and betty white of all people should know this seince she was married to one of the best hosts of all time not only that she won an emmy for hosting a game show called just men i also didnt like the mickey rooney one or the empty nest one

I like Moonlight Madness and Beatle Mania. I thought they were hilarious. I really don't like the episode were Blanche dreams that her husband faked his death. It's so depressing.

Your 10 least favorites are some of my all time favorites. Especially Moonlight Madness and the slum lords.


And as far as least favorites, I like almost all of them except for the one where that visiting family comes in from Ittally and they think that Dorthy is their Daughter. It was just an unfunny and stupid episode. Well one out 180 aint bad now is it;)

I guess my least fav episode is when the girls want to have the garage changed. (?)

Vito Scotti played a guy who directed his construction crew in Italian. Sophia translated what he said to english.

Another episode i don't care too much for is when the girls all vie for the affections of a sculptor. He turns out to be gay.

Maybe I am getting tired of the shows? (Mercy me!)

The Moonlight Madness episodes were actually part of a theme NBC had for that particular Saturday Night... Nurses and Empty Nest were also effected by the "Madness".... NBC had mock special reports between each of the shows.. with the newscaster talking about weird occurances in ther Miami area due to the full moon...

I'd have to agree w/ all of the eps mentioned. Even though this is one of my favorite shows of all time, there are quite a few eps I can pass on, especially after seeing them so many times. Most from 90-92...they just don't run the early seasons enough!

However, if there's a good St. Olaf story, the episode is completely redeemed...:)

IS there a good St Olaf story??!! :lol:

Don

Agree with most of these but can anyone overlook the 'Adopt Rose's Uncle's Pig to Get His Inheritance' one? Between everyone being greedy and out-of-character, the LAMEST lines and corniest situations; this episode was truly AWFUL and boring!:sleep2:

I hated the episode with Rose's cousin Swen

Hi everyone! :wave: I'm new to the board and have a few episodes I didn't like myself.

For starters, I didn't like the one where Dorothy became best friends with that Barbara Thorndyke chick. She was extremely stuck up and self centered.

The Empty Nests one was dull but not bad. I just thought it was kind of a dumb idea having a guy in there with multiple personalities.

Other than those, I can't think of many more at all. Most of them are my fave :crazy:

I loved all of them but not the Empty Nest one so much.

Empty Nest episode

Rose's cousin Sven comes to visit

Rose adopting a pig named “Baby”

The two-parter where Rose has a heart attack

Sophia gets married to Max

Visiting family comes in from Italy and they think Dorthy is their daughter

The one with the family from Italy who think Sophia and their daughter were switched at birth....yeah, a dumb one!

My least favorite are : "Empty Nest", cousin Sven, and the jacket episode - so depressing!

I actually like the Cousin Sven episode. How can you not love the reactions to that cake from the "Get It While It's Hot" erotic bakeshop that Rose swore was in the shape of Florida???


The ones I really don't care for too much are the one with the prizefighter who turns out to be a violinist (he also played Enrique Mas) and the one where Rose returns to St. Olaf to collect a "Woman of the Year" award.

I really disliked all the episodes with Stanley in them. He should have remained 'heard about' but not 'seen'.

Also disliked the Empty Nest eps as well.

I liked that one too. It had a lot of funny moments, IMO. Another one mentioed that I also liked was part one of the one where Rose has a heart attack. The scenes from the high school reunion they crashed were hilarious: Rose as the exchange student, Sophia as the Spanish teacher, Dorothy actually getting to be Ms. Popularity for once in her life and Blanche's reactions to the people who hated the person she was supposed to be ("Oh well, who cares!") were priceless.

I didn't like that one either, nor did I like Empty Nest, Sophia Get Married and the one where Rose is addicted to painkillers.

2 Part episode when Rose had a Heart Attacked.
