To many ardent "Golden Girls" fans the sixth season is the one in which the series "jumped the shark" in that the show changed both in story content and direction. Gone since the end of the fourth season were the show's wonderful writers and at the end of the fifth season beloved director Terry Hughes decided to hang up his dirctor's hat and do feature films. The absence of those two important ingredients are evident in this 26 episode boxset. The stories just weren't as funny as in previous years and the cast, most notably Bea Arthur, seemed to be running through their scenes. The sixth season is alright in terms of good sitcom work, but after viewing these shows the shine was off the gold so to speak. Buy this season to finish off your "Golden Girls" collection, but if your looking to purchase excellent "Golden Girls" shows pick up the first four seasons. The only bonus in this set is a minor interview with Betty white, Rue McClanahan, and others discussing the series. The series finished at #10 for the year.
Excellent selection of a year's episodes of Golden Girls. This was the first, and to date the only, series featuring four women who find themselves living together in one house. The relationships between them is a joy to behold! It is even more valuable since Bea Arthur and Estelle Getty (The actors who played Dorothy and her mother, Sophia) have died. A very enjoyable program! Programs like this one aren't being produced anymore; and that is very sad!

I have always just loved this show, and could not wait to receive my new DVD set. I was not one bit disappointed! I highly recommend 'The Golden Girls' for almost anyone (due to its racy nature, some age-groups should be prohibited from watching it.) I don't think I know any adult, actually, who does not enjoy this particular sitcom.

Fantastic! I haven't been disappointed by any Golden Girls DVD's I have ordered from Amazon.com. I own every season and watch them all the time! Great when you need a laugh. The quality of the DVD's is excellent and the delivery was speedy and efficient. Which I have become accustom to when ordering from Amazon.com

It's funny how people say that things you do is suppose to be age appropriate,but I been watching the Golden girls since my teen years it was funny then and it's still funny now as they still play different episodes on Tv. With this television show you can't tell one season from the next because of the great acting from these women and the story lines. I definitely love season 1-5, the sixth season was just as good. My favorite one is when Blanche is dating a guy who is verbally abusive towards her and with the help of Dorothy friendship. She finds a way out. and the rest of the shows are just as great. I would really recommend The sixth season Dvd to purchase, you will definitely enjoy it.
