How Well Do You Remember ‘The Golden Girls’ Dorothy Zbornak?
Wry, witty, and withering, Dorothy was the Golden Girl who was always ready with a perfect punchline. And why wouldn’t she be? She was played by Bea Arthur, who was already a TV comedy legend after her Emmy-winning turn as the star of ’70s Norman Lear sitcom Maude. Seven years after Maude wrapped, Arthur returned to the small screen as The Golden Girls‘ Dorothy Zbornak, a schoolteacher who got dumped after 38 years of marriage, when her husband hooked up with a young stewardess on a business trip to Maui
Though Dorothy wasn’t above complaining about her situation (she said of her ex’s life in Hawaii, “I hope he trips on his thongs and falls into a volcano”), she adjusted to a new life with Rose, Blanche, and her mother, Sophia, with aplomb.
But how much do you really remember about Dorothy — or “Pussycat,” as Sophia would put it? Get out some cheesecake, and get ready to put your wisdom to the test.
