This show was waaaay more fucked up than Golden Girls.
For instance, The Golden Girls had an episode where they track down a jean jacket that leads them to Micheal Jackson tickets and the concept of the elderly becoming homeless. It’s a serious episode where political issues take a center stage…
Compare that to a show about a couple of women repeating a LOT of southern racist tropes… or the fact that an entire character was a 90s gay stereotype.

I had no idea who this was so I went and looked on IMDB and she was in a show called "Designing Women" and one of the top rated episodes has this description:
Suzanne [Burke] attends her high school reunion, where people shun her because she weighs more than she did in high school.
Irony.
