I sure hope that Estelle Getty knew how much pleasure she, and the other cast, gave to millions of viewers for so many years. I have watched every show so many times, and yet I never tire of them. I am 66, about the age the girls were toward the end of their run. I admire all the actresses, but Estelle was a favorite. I also enjoy Betty White and especially admire the way she keeps on working. I have no idea how to contact the stars I see on television. Obviously some folks know, but I am not one of them.
Estelle will be missed by many.

This is a fitting tribute to such a special character, and great actress. I do wish, and would have expected, that the marathon could have included more episodes. And, I sure wish I could be home to watch them. I love watching Golden Girls on Lifetime, and was upset when it lost airtime to such shows as Frasier and Will and Grace. Estelle Getty will be missed by all. Her contribution to popular culture is unsurmountable. Who will ever forget her onscreen antics? With such sayings as "Your life is a sports page," "I'm old, I'm supposed to be colorful," and "The man's a scuzzball," she etched her way into our hearts, and caused much-needed laughter. She was a beautiful lady, and I am saddened to have to say goodbye forever. Bye Estelle. We'll miss you. (And, say hello to Sal for us)

Oh man 12-5? Most people I know, including myself, don't get done with work until 5. =( oh well, I'm glad they're doing it!

The world has lost it's first Golden Girl. Estelle died 3 days before her 85th birthday. She wasn't even 5 feet tall, but she stole every scene she was in with her colorful remarks saying whatever she wanted, "How do I know what I'm saying? I had a stroke!" She received an Emmy nomination every year of the show's run starting in 1986 and ending in 1992. She won the award in 1988 (all 4 stars won the award sometime during the show's run). This funny lady will be missed, but I know she's some where nice, like Florida. I don't know if you saw the other 3 Girls on the TV Land Awards, but the rest of the group's not looking so good (especially Rue) so pray for these ladies. Their reruns are still making me laugh and I need a reunion show before they're all gone. Perhaps Sophia's death would be a good plot point? Anyways, if you took the time to read this, thanks for being a friend.
We love you Estelle and we will miss you.

We're having a celebration of Estelle and the Golden Girls tonight with cheesecake on the lanai. We'll miss the marathon, but thank goodness for DVDs. The Girls will be in our hearts and minds forever.

Estelle Getty was the woman. It's great that there will be a tribute in her name. So Ms. Sophia Petrillo here is a cheesecake in your name.
Martio Sanchez
Getty admitted in an interview once she was a zionist who despised the United States and hated playing an Itlian.

The Golden Girls is probably the funniest show on TV and I never tire of watching their wit, seriousness and charm.
It was a wonderful show and I have all 4 series on CD so I can enjoy anytime.
Estelle is like we would all like to be - say whatever you want whenever you want never minding what people think. She was GREAT and her talent will surely be missed.
Grace
As a HUGE fan of the Golden Girls, Sophia/Estelle Getty, I think they should play a week of Golden Girls episodes in honor. I LOVE the GIRLS!
mygoldengirls
I love the ladies. Lifetime should have more Golden Girls on instead of other shows. They are all very funny and charming. Sophia is a grandma that I don't have. I think like others that they should play a week of Golden Girls episodes in honor of Estelle Getty. They should have more G.G. play during the evening time instead of 1am. We loved you and you will be missed Sophia.

I loved Estelle! I will miss her so much! She brought great joy and laughter portraying Sophia, she was a great comedian! I know now shes in a better place and making God laugh. May she rest in peace. I loved Estelle! I will miss her so much! She brought great joy and laughter portraying Sophia, she was a great comedian!

The golden girls is my favorite on tv.I have seasons one two and three and i plan on getting the rest.I have watched the golden girls for so many years I feel like they are part of my family I LOVE MY GIRLS I never miss an episode. If im watching a movie and its time for my girls i switch channels and watch them instead sometimes i get busy and miss maybe five or ten mins. of them then suddeniy ithink my girls are on and then its fun time again. But now each time I sat down watch another great episode I will always remember in real life one of my girls is missing and I would feel the same if it was one of the others. GOODBY Estelle I WILL ALWAYS LOVE MISS YOU. BRENDA WALKER

Estelle Getty was one of a kind. You'll never see another actress like her. Bea Arthur is gone too. These two women had perfect chemistry when they said their lines.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

It is a fact that the sense of style a person is born with something. A person can be trained and prepared to a certain degree, but then they would still be limited to fashion lessons taught in the lesson preparation. There is no training that allow someone who can learn the art of style. But sometimes, instead of a complete illiterate fashion and style, it is better to have a few tricks that can get a decent look and modern good Knockoff Handbags . The rest, as the person gets from wear. For example, some dress codes and uniforms, which are used in the case of employees of the hotel, flight crews, waitresses, coats, doctors, etc.. Here, the scope of fashion and style is fairly limited but at the same time, it¡¯s not impossible.

If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.

Well, not to repeat the hating on aol, but th is is probably one of the most d isappointing l ist thus far. On both sides. How can El Banco Deuno and aol be on the finest l ist, and then bash artwork directors club? I really did nothave an issue with that redesign, as well as the collateral was looking pretty superior. You know what need to are already on the l ist for worst logos? New York Philharmonic logo. My hatred of that logo burns in my chest to th is day. The identify from the designer behind that logo may be the only explanation for any of its good results. The perfect l ist the yr is quite mediocre for me.I like Mary Shu is comment about her choices for that finest l ist a little bit greater.

How can the Nickelodeon logo be around the Ideal l ist but Bing be on the worst l ist? It truly is like looking on the identical thing, one particular is skinny plus the other is extra fat. And I understand th is is nostalgia talking, but the new Nick logo is just poor.From the top l ist, I'd have put the NY Library nearer to your prime. It can be a stand out mark that is just sharp.
