The Golden Girls is a classic '80s sitcom. There's a lot of sexual innuendo that young children won't understand, but teenagers who've had education in sex should be fine.

Good for teenagers, but not for children

Not exactly for kids
While this show is hilarious for those that are older (I say 14 and up), it is VERY sexually based. One episode deals with Rose having sex with a man who dies in her bed during the act; frequently going on weekend getaways and having sex; etc. The language is not bad but the sexual content is somewhat strong.
- I rate this title iffy for age 2 and give it
