Dorothy's Looks - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Bluestone · 09-21-2001, 07:10 PM

People on the show, and sometimes people on this board, say she is ugly. I don't think she is. She's not exactly a beauty queen, but she has a certain style of attractiveness about her- and she was beautiful in the final episode when she got married.
Who agrees?

I think so too. The hairstyles she had later in the series were more flattering than the early ones.

I totally agree. I always believe the exact same thing. I thought she was always very sophisticated and attractive in a way. Very graceful. She did have some good wadrobe in most episodes. There was one episode of the Golden Palace when she came to visit Rose, Blanche and Sophia at their new hotel and she looked stunning. She had class.

I agree! That dear woman gets lots of insults which is VERY sad

Yea, I agree, she was pretty in the last episode (=

I'm telling you, there are some people who just grow on you...and she's one of them.

She's not ugly, but she wasn't a beauty queen either. And yeah, she had charm and wit, so she was attractive in her own way.

**Gracie**

Bea is gorgeous even now. She is one of those women who it seems was just born to act in my opinion. She has the looks and DEFINATLY has the voice for it.

BTW - has anyone seen her movie out last year, Enemies Of Laughter. I hear she was brilliant as always in it!

Dorothy wasn't too ugly, but her clothes was nasty looking. They were too long and baggy and she even wore long boots in the Miami heat.

When she appeared in her first scene on the Golden Palce, I thought she looked striking.

I saw Bea Arthur in her one woman show "...And then there's Bea" back in May (in Chicago). She is much more attractive in person - she literally lights up the room and has such a pleasant smile... and she has great cheekbones too! People expect extreme beauty with such talent it seems, she truly has her own radiant beauty.

CLASSIC TV LOVER · 11-27-2001, 04:26 PM

I agree. When the show first started she had a bad haircut and her voice was more manly. Towards the end of the show she was pretty and wore nice clothing and had a nice voice!!!!!!

latisha · 11-28-2001, 07:10 AM

to me, bea always appeared with grace and class. she had a certain elegance about her.

I've always noticed how dorothy's voice changed to. I thought that was weird, it went from more manly to more scratchy. I wonder how she got that voice. Was she a cigarette smoker mayber? Either way, that voice is her trademark. Those sarcastic jokes and comments are always the best when dorothy says them. I would love to see her live show.
