Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Camelot_2000 I have always been a mega fan of The Golden Girls during the time it was on and was disappointed when the series ended in 1992 due to Bea Arthur calling it quits after 7 seasons. There was hope on the horizon though when another network picked up T.G.G. and reworked it into 'The Golden Palace'.The characters I enjoyed - Rose, Blanche and Sophia - were there, but in another setting and with new characters to mingle with. The absence of Dorothy was sorely missed and noticeable too. She was like the missing link on a comedic chain of interaction that all 4 women connected so successfully with during the Golden Girls era.Whenever I tuned in, it was the girls I wanted to see and not those other characters like Roland and Chuy. I didn't find those guys too funny at all. The kid named Oliver was totally unnecessary and I was pleased when he was written off the show not long after.This short lived show had it's funny moments, like the war of pranks between Sophia and Rose as well as the dilemma on how to 'hide the body' when an elderly food critic died while eating in the hotel restaurant. I also enjoyed the hilarious mix-up that caused Sophia to be accidentally taken away to a hospital instead of the elderly lady who suffered from Alzheimer's.My favourite episode, not surprisingly, was Bea Arthur's guest appearance for a couple of episodes. The chain was connected again and her stay at the hotel was really enjoyable, especially when she volunteers to help run the place. Her comedic confrontation with that grouchy restaurant diner who was never satisfied, was priceless.I wished this show could have lasted longer despite the pitfalls, but it was cancelled after 1 season. Sophia later turns up as a regular on Empty Nest with no explanation given on what happened to the hotel business. It's almost like it was all for 'naught'. The way this show abruptly ended, I think it was.

smurfboy After the brilliant 'Golden Girls' ended when Bea Arthur - always the show's biggest star - left, the company behind it decided to try and continue the magic with the remaining girls. As the show wasn't the same without Arthur, they producers created a new situation, with the girls buying and running their own hotel. Sadly, this series just seemed a bit desperate. Although there were some funny moments, the brilliance of the Golden Girls was its simplicity, and the chemistry between the four leads. With Bea Arthur gone, the comic balance was lost, and new characters seemed out of place. Also the situation was unbelievable - where did three women who could only afford one house between them get the money to buy a swanky hotel? Why did they buy a hotel anyway? Far from awful, but certainly disappointing.

Moonlighting This show is currently playing in Living TV in the UK, i've been taping. Anyway this show is very good and very funny. Maybe it was ended as a combination that Bea Arthur was right- that THe Golden Girls outstayed it's welcome. But Dorothy is a noticeable absence. There are still 3 girls- But Sophia strictly wouldn't be counted as a golden girl- she's a main character but the other three are the ones always still dating and fighting- Sohia's just pure comedy, Anyway- no one else can be sarcastic to Rose as Dorothy can- which is noticeably misses- but this show is just as funny- and may as well just be thought of as another season of the Golden Girls- tohugh the tune and title chagned- between scenes it plays those little melodies and all still. They should someday have either a reunion golden girls episode- or a full theatrical Movie or somethingThis show is great.

Danorgan It was a perfectly good series! Why did they have to cancel it. I still have episodes on tape but haven't seen all. I know Dorothy's loss in 1992 was a hard one and I am glad they tried to keep the other three going. Just because Dorothy was gone, wasn't a reason to "kill-off" the other three! I was outraged when this show was cancelled! I wish someone would air reruns like, once a week! Once a week because there were only 24 episodes and it wouldn't repeat as often. Or lifetime could show it after they show The Golden Girls finale and then start The Golden Girls over again! COME ON!
