The seventh season wasn't just the last for NBC's Golden Girls: It was the best. As it begins, the four remain single after Dorothy (Beatrice Arthur) calls off her second wedding to Stan (Herb Edelman) in the previous season. It's no catastrophe, however, as the roommates still enjoy each other's company as much as ever, despite the occasional quarrel. Rose (Betty White), for instance, is none too happy when she find what she thinks is evidence of an affair between Blanche (Rue McLanahan) and her late husband, Charlie ("Hey, Look Me Over"). On the bright side, Rose continues to see lovable cheapskate Miles (Harold Gould). Highlights include "Where's Charlie," a spoof of Bull Durham--or "Dances With Bulls," as Sophia dubs it--in which Blanche teaches a baseball player (Tim Thomerson) to embrace his feminine side, and "Dateline: Miami," in which she tries to deflower a former priest (Fred Willard). As with Blanche's other best laid plans, the results aren't quite as expected. Other seventh season guests include Tony Plana ("The Case of the Libertine Belle"), Peter Graves ("Mother Load"), Ken Howard ("The Commitments"), Merv Griffin and Alex Trebek ("Questions and Answers"), and Leslie Nielsen ("One Flew Out of the Cuckoo's Nest"), who steals Dorothy's heart. In the final season, Marc Cherry (Desperate Housewives) was promoted from story editor to producer. (It can't be completely coincidental that the man who helped make 40 the new 30 first helped make 60 the new 40.) As with most other sets, however, there are no cast or crew commentaries. Fortunately, the wonders of syndication and DVD technology allow fans to relive all seven years of Sophia's "Picture this..." stories about Sicily, Rose's loopy recollections about St. Olaf, Blanche's over-the-top sexual exploits, and Dorothy's delightfully deadpan expressions. Now, who's for another slice of cheesecake? --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Wish there was more October 18, 2008
This disc completes my collection. I wish there were more seasons or that they would put the "golden Palace" on disc. I am 22 and a very big "Golden Girls" fan I absolutely LOVE THE ENTIRE COLLECTION!!!
I absolutely HATED the thoughts of having to purchase this BRILLIANT SHOW. October 16, 2008

I absolutely hated this season even though I loved every single minute of it. I know this sounds confusing so let me explain. I am a MASSIVE fan of the Golden Girls and have enjoyed every minute of the first 6 Seasons, I just didn't want them to end. By purchasing this final Season, it meant that there would be no more Seasons to collect and watch. I hated the thought of this. This is without doubt the BEST comedy show ever and unfortunately now I have seen them all. It's SAD even though I still enjoy them. But you never know, they might release the Golden Palace too.
This is a superb Season. I would recommend it to anyone. The BEST show ever. There will never EVER be another comedy like it.

As ever the classic comedy of the girls is absolutely entertaining with laugh out loud, side splitting vignettes. A pleasing choice that did not disappoint.
