Which Golden Girl are you?

#1 07-23-2001, 10:45 PM

I know this may be corny, but I was watching ("Sophia & 'nem" as my mom calls it) with my friend. Anyway, we were discussing which Golden Girl were we like. So this is this question.

1)Which golden girl do you think is most like you?

2) Which one do your friends think you are?

I consider myself Dorothy, with a touch of Sophia (sometimes I have a smart mouth).

But my friend called me Blanche because all kinds of men approach me.

I would be Dorothy by far. My friends think the same.

Who's the character played by Betty White?

An interesting spin on this would be what Living Single character are you?

Kadejia (sp?) would be it for me.

Dorothy/Kadejia don't you see the similarities? LOL

I've noticed most sitcoms involving a group of females use the same basic personality types. (Julia 'nem are from Designing Women.)

1. The no-nonsense mature one (Dorothy, Khadijah, Julia)

2. The ditsy one (Rose, Synclaire, Charlene)

3. The guy-crazy one (Blanche, Regine, Suzanne)

4. The random one that's there to lend the sarcasm (Sophia, Max, Mary Jo)

I have too much time on my hands, I know. But I can't help but notice things like this!

Same goes for Natalie, Tootie, Blair, and Jo!

LOL SweetestDiva, I thought I was the only one to notice the similarities in the ladies of the three shows (I watch them EVERYDAY!) Anyway, I think that I am most like Sophia, Max, and Mary Jo...I ALWAYS have something smart to say! Most of the time, my friends try to cover for me when they know I'm about to say something that I shouldn't, but I'm always like, WHATEVA! They know me so well...

I'm a cross between Dorothy and Sophia.
Director I agree, way too much time on your hands, LOL.

Isn't that something?

I guess I am the Dorothy type, the no-nonsense mature one through and through. Although some of my friends might think I am Sophia even though I try not to be on the sarcastic tip all the time.

I'm definately a Blanche/Max...I guess I'm a mixed breed

I lovvvve the Golden Girls. I especially love the wisdom and comedy stylings of Sophia. Her "Picture this" stories were always too funny for words.

I think that you all have really plucked the minds of the Hollywood writers in noting their preferred character mix for shows.

I personally think that I am a Dorothy...always practical with a dry sense of humor. I have a little sass in me at times and sometimes clueless. At other times, I can be really funny. Actually, I think that the diversity of characters reflect the genuine diversity of our individual characters. On any given day, you might relate more to Sophia than Blanche, etc.

I (CJ#2) would say that I am half and half:

4. The random one that's there to lend the sarcasm (Sophia, Max, Mary Jo)
and 3. The guy-crazy one (Blanche, Regine, Suzanne)

My friend JDub is:
2. The ditsy one (Rose, Synclaire, Charlene)

and my friend CJ#1 is:
1. The no-nonsense mature one (Dorothy, Khadijah, Julia)

Thats the crew right there!!

I just could not resist responding to this post. It's a great topic.

I feel that I'm the Dorothy/Blanche type. You know the insightful, mature, independent, straight to the point, humerous attitude mixed with the sexy, spontaneous, living in the moment, confident, "whateva" attitude.

I just LOVE the Golden Girls. It never amazes me to hear Dorothy say something cynical, yet funny or for Blanche to be in her "it's all about me mode". I love them!!!!

Okay-- now y'all dun messed up!

Golden Girls is my FAVORITE, FAVORITE, FAVORITE, FAVORITE, FAVORITE TV show!!!!!!!!!

I watch it 4 times a day M-F, and twice on both Saturdays and Sundays. If I'm home from work, I also catch the 2 morning episodes! I am an addict! Call me a dork, but I am also a member of the fan club; I post on the GG message board as "Im_all_4" because I see a little of myself in each one of 'em:

Sophia - I'm wise and quick to crack on folks!
Dorothy - I'm a homebody and I'm very smart!
Rose - I love to talk and say corny stuff!
Blanche - I'm a "playette" (or at least I used to be)!

Sophia is my favorite, of course, but Dorothy keeps me laughing, too!

By the way, did I mention that Golden Girls is my FAVORITE show? Just wondering.

And I'm Out!

Let's add another girl TV show, shall we?
Let's add "Girlfriends". They have all the characteristics of the other three.

Joan, an elegant lawyer
The no-nonsense mature one (Dorothy, Khadijah, Julia)

Lynn, a perpetual graduate student and activist
The ditsy one (Rose, Synclaire, Charlene)

Joan's childhood friend Toni, a woman who takes her cues from the film How To Marry a Millionaire.
The guy-crazy one; also add to this the very fashion conscience one(Blanche, Regine, Suzanne)

Joan's secretary, Maya, a ghetto superstar. The random one that's there to lend the sarcasm (Sophia, Max, Mary Jo)

So, which category am I in?

I am a mixture of three of the four.
Toni, Blanche, Regine, Suzanne- Only because I like to be in style as these ladies are. But they come off as a bit stuck on themselves to me. That, I am not.

Maya,Sophia, Max, Mary Jo (notice how all three names begin with an "M" except Sophia)-
I can be sarcastic a lot.

Joan,Dorothy, Khadijah, Julia-
I can take charge when I have to. And when it comes to business, I have a no non-sense attitude.

ladycat81 · #15 07-25-2001, 07:05 PM

Well as far as Golden Girls, I'm Dorothy sometimes and Sophia other times. Living Single, I'm definetly Max!

Let's add another: Which Sex and the City character are you?? I'm Miranda through and through. That girl just never seems to have any luck with the guys,lol.
