Bea Arthur


I cant believe she was there? I cant believe she took all that abuse. How does Bea Arthur end up doing this roast thing when we havent seen her since golden girls? I have to admit though, the funniest parts of the night were when she was being made reference to.

reply

she was there because she is a member of PETA, as is Pamela Anderson. and i thought they should have eased off her. i mean for God sakes! shes over 80 years old! and she got the worst of things. but she handled herself well, and her bit was *beep* HILARIOUS!!!!! the way she read from Pam's book and made fun of her was just great! she was one of the funniest on the show IMO.

Bea Arthur is one of the funniest women of all time. Her stints on television from the late 70's to the early 90's were nothing short of priceless.

She also had the funniest bit on the entire roast.

reply

yeah, her song and dance number in the "star wars holiday special" was priceless. although, anyone who is affiliated with PETA automatically looses about 60 to 70% of their cool points.

Sic semper, Bea Arthur! (cool points to anyone who caught that reference... unless you are affiliated with PETA)

reply

Exactly.

For more about PETA watch the Penn & Teller: Bullsh*t episode about them.

They are a bunch of lying, hypocritical animal rights-fascists.

And i say that as a guy who loves animals.

don't coddle bea! she's not some poor fragile old granny tht woman can take care of herself! as she well proved. she was always my favorite on golden girls. betty white was awesome too. i hope she does more roasts.

reply

i laughed when really hard when she read from pam's books!! especially about that certain position!!! you should know what im talking about if you have seen the dvd! i was crying after her( bea) reading that! hearing an eldery woman talk about that kind of stuff is really funny in my opinion!

reply

Yeah, Bea was definitely the highlight of the show. Everyone gave her a standing voation when she was done.

reply

will someone please post exactly what she said

reply

Bea Arthur rocked, how many people could have made reading a book so freaking funny. that was some of the best comedy i've seen in ages

If you have a problem with what I say, learn the meaning of a joke and shut up

reply

Did anyone else notice that she had left at some point during the show

reply

Pamela Anderson told howard stern that Bea walked out.
