Quiz: We Know Which Golden Girl You Are Based On Your Answers To This Trivia

A question so easy that even Rose herself could get a win.

Contrary to popular belief, St. Olaf is a real town — although as far as we know, Rose's claim that you need to take a three day donkey ride to get there is false.

Rose's favorite pastime is to regale her friends with tales of her hometown. Where was Rose born?

Bea Arthur actually had a strong dislike of cheesecake in real life, making her the only person ever in the history of the universe to possess such an affliction.

The four ladies often crowded around the kitchen table to enjoy their favorite dessert.  
What did they eat?

Level up, baby. Even casual viewers should know the answer to this.

_The Golden Palace_ features three out of the four girls investing in a hotel and taking on the roles of most of the staff. While it made it to 24 episodes, the show was never as popular as it's predecessor and was cancelled after one season. You could blame the lack of cheesecake.

After _The Golden Girls_ ended, Rose, Blanche and Sophia were spun off into another TV show. What was this program called?

Sophia was born in Sicily, but moved to New York at an early age to escape an arranged marriage. Still, that isn't gonna stop her from telling the girls some questionable tales about her early life.

Sophia has strong ties to her familial roots. Where was she born?

Only real fans will know the answer to this one.

'To Catch A Neighbor' featured two policemen staking out Blanche's house to capture a pair of jewel thieves. Joe Campanella played Officer Al Mullins, and George Clooney guest-starred as Officer Bobby Hopkins. Betty White would later go on to say that she had a crush on Clooney in 2012, when she was hitting 90 and he was 49. #CougarPower

Which future A-lister played Officer Bobby Hopkins in the 1987 episode  
"To Catch A Neighbor"?

Debbie Reynolds guest-starred in the season six episode "There Goes The Bride: Part 2" as an informal chemistry test between her and the other girls; but ultimately, it was decided that nobody could replace Arthur. After all, what would the show have been without Dorothy's constant refrain of "Shady Pines, ma"?

When Bea Arthur's contract expired in season six, it was uncertain whether she'd return to the show.  
Who was brought in as her possible replacement?

"Thank You for Being a Friend" was originally written and recorded by Andrew Gold in 1978, and hit #25 on the charts. Nowadays, most people are more familiar with the version sung by Cindy Fee.

The show's theme song is "Thank You For Being A Friend."  
Who sings the song during the opening credits?

George was Blanche's high school sweetheart, husband and the love of her life; Deck was another young suitor who Blanche once almost eloped with; and Mel is a later beau, known as the "Zipper King" for his line of work. Fred was never mentioned on the show, but knowing Blanche we wouldn't be surprised if she had one or two in her phone book.

Blanche had dozens of suitors over the course of the show. Which of the following was _not_ the name of one of her partners?

Only true super fans will know the answer to this.

Gloria was played by Doris Belack in season one episode "The Custody Battle" and Dena Dietrich in season 7 episodes "The Monkey Show," part I and II. Phil never appeared in the show but was referred to as a "crossdresser" with ten children.

Dorothy is Sophia's oldest child.  
What are the names of her other two children?

The house depicted in the first season of the show was actually located in Brentwood, California. For season two onwards, the same house was replicated at Walt Disney World's Hollywood Studios in Florida, where visitors to the park could view it up close and personal. Sadly, the house was demolished in 2003.

Blanche's house was on Richmond St., Miami. What number house did she own?

Coco was the gay houseboy who was to appear as a regular character throughout _The Golden Girls_, but who ended up getting the axe after the pilot so that Sophia could steal the spotlight. Barely anybody even knows who you are, and the ones who do are trying to forget you ever existed. Literally, what are you even doing here?

You Are Coco!

Rose is everyone's favorite ditzy blonde with a heart of gold, and what she lacks in intelligence is made up for in enthusiasm. You might not be the brightest crayon in the box, but you're well loved and we still want to thank you for being a friend!

You Are Rose!

To hear her side of the story, Sophia was once a beautiful and intelligent woman; although at this stage of the game we're not sure if that's just the dementia talking. Still, she was smart enough to break out of Shady Pines, and that definitely takes some brains! Congratulations on a life well lived!

You Are Sophia!

She may play coy, but don't let it fool you: Blanche's breathy buxom belle persona is nothing but an act. Under that box dyed hair is an intelligent woman just waiting to escape, and she's happy to let you see it! Well done for making it this far!

You Are Blanche!

Dorothy may come across as cold and domineering, but there's another side to her, too: she's also a conceited and uppity teacher who thinks she's above everyone else. Still, with brains like that, who can blame her? You're the smartest of the group and a total _Golden Girls_ superfan: just don't let it get to your head!
