29 years after the final over-the-air telecast in 1997, Dorothy, Rose, Blanche, and Sophia are making their return to free broadcast television when they join the MeTV lineup of classic and memorable shows. 

Beginning Monday, March 16, see the girls every weeknight with back-to-back episodes at 10P | 9C, as well as Sundays at 6P | 5C and again with a two-hour block at 8P | 7C.

Widely regarded as one of the greatest sitcoms of all time, The Golden Girls is the latest addition to MeTV’s unparalleled library of Memorable Entertainment Television, featuring more than 60 timeless series airing weekly that continue to resonate with audiences across generations. The Golden Girls will air weeknights alongside fellow comedy classics Everybody Loves Raymond, M*A*S*H, The Andy Griffith Show and The Carol Burnett Show.

"The popularity of The Golden Girls is unlike that of almost any other comedy in television history – sharply written and distinctive for portraying and celebrating mature leading female characters as vital, engaged, sexy and downright funny," said Neal Sabin, vice-chairman Weigel Broadcasting Co. "The show is a phenomenon, spanning all corners of pop culture and fan appreciation. It is a true honor to bring the series back to broadcast television as part of MeTV’s lineup, where viewers of all ages can tune-in and enjoy this truly memorable and entertaining series."

The Golden Girls was a cornerstone of NBC’s Saturday night lineup for seven seasons from 1985-1992, scooping up 68 Emmy nominations and 11 wins in the process. Groundbreaking for its time, The Golden Girls tackled subjects rarely addressed in sitcoms before, including aging, mortality, racism, mental health and sexuality, always with warmth, humor and honesty. A rare series with enduring and multi-generational appeal, The Golden Girls celebrated friendship, chosen family and the bonds that can be built at any stage of life.

Remember, all of MeTV's memorable shows can be enjoyed for free with a TV antenna. Find your local broadcast TV station at https://metv.com/wheretowatch
