    I'm only 20 and I still think Golden Girls is one of the best sitcoms ever- Go Betty!

    Love, love, love Betty White! When I was a child, and she was married to Allen Ludden, the host of "Password," she seemed like such a nice lady - like your next door neighbor. Then she was Sue Ann Niven on "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," and boy, was she hilarious as that witchy Martha Stewart type. Then she was so good as sweet, ditzy Rose on "The Golden Girls." And she was a complete hoot in "Lake Placid." Of course, she's done much more than just these things, but she is so versatile and talented. She's just AWESOME. I used to think I'd love to be like her when I'm in my 80s, but I'd love to be like her now! Go, Betty!
