Sophia: 'Esther Weinstock is dead.' Dorothy: 'What happened?' Sophia: 'She was fighting an oil rig fire...' (then agitated) 'SHE WAS 88!' Rose: 'It's great she was able to work until the end.' Classic Is Classic. Disney Sends 'Golden Girls' to LatAm TVWeek

The classic 1980s sitcom "The Golden Girls" is coming back to TV but this time in Spanish. Disney Media Networks Latin America has announced that it's making "Los Años Dorados,” a Hispanic reversioning of the show.

The series, which begins shooting 45 30-minutes episodes today- in high definition on a custom-built set in Caracas, Venezuela--will target Spanish-speaking markets in the U.S. and Latin America.
