The Golden Girls - Kate Browne

The Golden Girls Made Its Prime-time Debut In 1985 On Nbc, And The Critically Acclaimed Show Has Been A Constant Television Companion Through Cable Reruns And Streaming Media Services Ever Since. Most People Know That The Golden Girls Is A Sitcom About Four Feisty, Older Women Living Together In Miami Who Love To Eat Cheesecake, But Kate Browne Argues That The Golden Girls Is About So Much More. Drawing On Feminist Literary Studies And Television Studies, Browne Makes A Case For The Golden Girls As A Tv Milestone Not Only Because It Remains One Of The Most Popular Sitcoms In Television History But Also Because Its Characters Reflect Shifting Complexities Of Gender, Age, And Economic Status For Women In The Late Twentieth Century And Beyond.each Chapter Is Dedicated To Exploring What Makes These Remarkable Characters Defy Expectations Of How Older Women Should Look, Act, And Love.
