Mother's Day (Season 3, Episode 25)

About this episode

The episode features the Golden Girls reminiscing about Mother's Day while waiting for calls from their children.

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 25, the gals are getting ready to go out to celebrate Mother's Day (to raise a glass to Mother Cheesecake, OBVIOUSLY), but they're all waiting for a call from their respective children. What can they do while they're waiting? REMINISCE, OF COURSE!!! Flashbacks ensue, including traveling back to the Brooklyn of Dorothy's youth where Bea Arthur plays Sophia's mother. With nary an Italian accent to be found, lol. Our episodes are researched by Jess McKillop, Patrick Hinds, and Jennifer Simard. All of our sources can be found on our website.
