The golden palace is a great follow up to the much loved golden girls. The idea of the remaining ladies picking up stakes and moving into a hotel to run it is a bit wild, but plays well. The new characters, a goofy cook and the tad too serious manager, fit right into the cast. There are plenty of laugh out loud moments, clever odes the original GG, and heartwarming moments. I particularly enjoyed seeing Rose's character come into her own and fill the gap left by Bea's absence. It was a joy to watch.
