"Golden Girls" star Bea Arthur dies

Don't even ask what possessed me to post this picture instead of a normal one, especially for a story that involves death, but I just got a feeling it was the right thing to do. Former Golden Girls and Maude star, Bea Arthur, died on Saturday afternoon at her L.A. home surrounded by her family. She was 86. Bea made her name in Broadway for about half of her life, then at the age of 50, after appearing on All in the Family and proving to everyone how hilarious she was, landed a spin-off called Maude. That was a hit but eventually died down, but Bea got picked up for the hit series the Golden Girls. She left the show in 1992, and pretty much laid low since, doing work here and there but nothing huge.

R.I.P. Bea. Thanks for the laughs! And yes, if I had a girlfriend, I'd wish she was hot like Bea.

Remaining "Golden Girls" no-show Estelle Getty's funeral

One-fourth of the Golden Girls, Estelle Getty, died last week at age 84. Her funeral was held on Thursday, and there were NO Golden Girls in site!! Bea Arthur, Betty White, and Rue McClanahan, who were Estelle's co-stars on the show, were nowhere to be found!

Mean old broads. I bet karma comes back on them and they all break their hips.

Golden Girl Passes On...

Little Sophia, from the hit sitcom GOLDEN GIRLS, has passed away. She was 84. Sadness. I grew up watching these ladies. No clue why a kid would want to watch a show about old ladies but I did and I loved it. They were a good time.

Getty's longtime manager, Alan Siegel, told PEOPLE on Tuesday: "As of 5:35 this morning, surrounded by her family in her Hollywood Hills home, Estelle Getty passed away peacefully in her sleep of natural causes. Her family and close friends thank everyone for being so loving and supportive of Estelle in her last few years."

I'm shocked she was 84, I thought she was 84 on the show and that was about 20 years ago. The woman could act. And she was freakin hilarious.

"She was loved throughout the world in six continents, and if they loved sitcoms in Antarctica she would have been loved on seven continents," Carl Gettleman (her son) told the Associated Press Tuesday. "She was one of the most talented comedic actresses who ever lived."

R.I.P Estelle
