Was The Golden Girls something you watched when it was on air, or was it something you gradually watched/discovered since its release as you became more immersed in the culture?

Never got into it and not ashamed to say it.

I’m 61, and I watched it whenever possible. I worked evenings in the 80s. A good friend once left my party, just to watch show on a Saturday night.

I had better things to do in my twenties on Saturday nights than watch an unfunny sitcom about 4 old women.

We used it as background noise getting ready to go out on a Saturday night.

Caught a couple episodes as an 80s teen. Watched it end of day as a comfort thing in my 20s

Only once when male friends took me to Uncle Charlie’s (?) and it was playing there.

I used to watch reruns on lifetime after school. It didn’t occur to me until I was in my teens that the show was long over.
I’m 36.

I watched it with German dubbing. It was awful. Especially the Rose jokes did not translate well. Still it was huge in the Schwulenszene.

It was a high point of the television week when new episodes aired (although it could be disappointing to find out that it would be a clip episode).

I was in elementary school when the Golden Girls were originally on and I watched it from the beginning. It was one of the earliest signs I was going to be gay.

I was a child in the 80s. I saw some of the episodes when they were brand new when my mom watched it. I think it aired on Friday nights if I remember correctly. And then, of course I watched them in reruns all the time in the 90s.
