About this episode

In this episode, Dorothy navigates job options and ends up working on a children's television show thanks to Rose.

WELCOME TO THE GOLDEN GIRLS DEEP DIVE PODCAST! Starting from the beginning of the show, each week we recap an episode of The Golden Girls. Along the way, we sprinkle in researched deep dives into something from the episode or The Golden Girls universe! In Season 3, Episode 24, Dorothy has three terrific job options for summer work... that all fall through. But thanks to her terrific friend Rose, Dorothy lands a job on a terrific children's television show. Shenanigans ensue when her terrific suggestions to the show's producer (guest star Lonny Price, who was terrific in the original cast of "Merrily We Roll Along" and terrifically evil in the move "Dirty Dancing") get Rose's terrific boyfriend canned. There's also a word repeated a terrific amount of times in this episode that kind of got on our nerves... any guesses? Our episodes are researched by Jess McKillop, Patrick Hinds, and Jennifer Simard. All of our sources can be found on our website. Follow us on Instagram and TikTok at @GoldenGirlsDeepDive
