Episode 45: Beauty is in the Eye of the Bea-Holder

Enough Wicker: Intellectualizing the Golden Girls - A podcast by Lauren Kelly and Sarah Royal

Categories:

Rose is a burgeoning filmmaker in this one and decides her first (and to our knowledge) the only documentary will be a day in the life of her roommates. Sophia sees it as a great opportunity for free publicity (for only $5.99 the recipe can be yours) and Dorothy, who receives crueler treatment in this one than usual, is hesitant at first but eventually comes around. But Blanche provides the focus here--after a reunion with her sorority sisters, Blanche returns home upset because she 'wasn't the center of attention and no one said she was the prettiest.' Seeing herself on camera only makes it worse and she vows to pursue a perfect body through drastic plastic surgery. This one has us in its corner right up until the end when Blanche's entire self-worth is reinvigorated by a man!
