Reviews
Not the terrible continuation spinoff some have made this out to be. There are some loud laughs - just not as many without the dry wit of Dorothy and the four-character dynamic she completed in <i>The Golden Girls</i>. The remaining three taking over a hotel wasn't too out-there, but their pasts are mined a little too deep in this one season. Fans of the original will inevitably watch this, warts and all.
