A decade later, she was on fifty-fifty base with Arthur, playing one of the three spunky geriatric roommates in "The Golden Girls." Betty White completed the trio. Estelle Getty played Arthur's mother. The show ran from 1985 to 1992, providing an exceptional second-act race for its silver-haired stars.
