S8 E2 - Golden Girls: Blanche Devereaux – The Miami Maneater

Blanche Devereaux is so many things. She’s the lady of my dreams, your dreams, all of our dreams. But, like, she’s also the branch from Designing Women to Golden Girls. Sometimes we just close our eyes and it’s almost like we’re right back there with our favorite Atlanta siren: Suzanne Sugarbaker. All batting eyelashes and questionable comments.

Join us on our new adventure as we hop from character to character this season, exploring their highs, lows, and frankly, what made us fall in love with them. 

For the purists out there, we’re including below the exact episodes we watched to prepare – so watch along and then tune in to talk all things Blanche. 

Come back Thursday for an Extra Sugar all about the lady behind the lady: Rue McClanahan. 

Blanche’s episodes:

• S1 E9: Blanche and the Younger Man 

• S1 E20: Adult Education 

• S3E14 Blanche’s Little Girl 

• S5 E3: The Accurate Conception

• S4E9 Scared Straight

• S6 E14: Sister of the Bride

A smidge more, if you want to dive in:

• An Interview with Rue on the character of Blanche

• A Joan Rivers interview with Rue about her life, career and, of course, Blanche

And, as always, thank you for being a friend!
