I don't know how many of you watch that show but the female characters resemble the chracters on Golden Girls.

Regine - Blanche
Khadijah - Dorothy
Synclaire - Rose
Max - Sophia

I just thought the was funny.. However Golden Girls is better.

I never really noticed it before, but you're right!

I don't see it.

Only thing I see as a connection is that 4 single ladies lived in the same place in Golden Girls and 3 of the 4 ladies in Living Single lived in the same place.

One was about old ladies (no offense to anyone) and one was about younger ladies.

Other than that I see no connection at all.

No... the characters resembled that of the Golden Girls

Regine resembled Blanche because they both chase alot of men & both think they're desirable to men.

Khadijah resembles Dorothy because they're both like the one who keeps it together for the girls.. Like the leader!

Synclaire resembles Rose because they're both on the slow side LOL

Max resembles Sophia because they were both the oldest of the girls & they cold both be mean & crazy at times!

Good comparisons!

when you think about it, pretty much ANY series with four female leads can be compared in ways to Golden Girls. Be it Sex And The City, Facts Of Life, Designing Women, maybe even Desperate Housewives. Each of those series has a Blanche and a Dorothy. It's almost common law for shows with four strong feminine leads to follow a certain pattern like that.
