I didn't notice the typos but I'll be on the lookout for them now!awallaceunc wrote:Thanks for all the kind words, everyone! I really enjoyed doing this review, my first for UD, and really appreciate the opportunity! Unfortunately I didn't have time to proofread, so that explains the occasional typo in there.
Well, you've convinced me to buy it anyways, and I can't stand sitcoms. I always had a soft-spot for the Golden Girls, and this brought all those memories flooding back in a floody sort of way.
Yes, and don't forget Nurses, which spun-off from Empty Nest.The Monkey's Uncle wrote:empty nest was, of course, the spin-off of the golden girls. they lived in the same neighborhood. blance even dated richard mulligans character. and if i remember correctly, sophia was made a cast member of the show during its last season. I miss empty nest.
The three shows played back to back on NBC, and resulted in various theme nights, such as "Hurricane Night", in which the three shows crossed over.

"Empty Nest and Golden Girls initially aired back to back and as such the characters from each show would drop by the other on a regular basis. Eventually a third show named Nurses was added that took place at the Hospital where Harry worked. All three shows would air on the same night and elaborate theme nights started airing with characters from all the shows hopping from one to the other. One was a moonlight madness night where a full moon made people act crazy. Another one was a hurricane night where everyone became stranded in different areas, leaving some at the Golden Girl's home, some over at Empty Nest and other unable to leave the hospital on Nurses."
Glad to see that you've now decided to get it, though.
