BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - Nearly 20 years after they first appeared on television's "The Golden Girls," stars Bea Arthur, Rue McClanahan and Betty White were together again.

They reunited at The Museum of Television & Radio Thursday night to celebrate the DVD release of "The Golden Girls: The Complete First Season."

"We're just like sorority sisters who haven't seen each other since college," bubbled McClanahan. "We just pick right up." ...

The DVD release serves up each episode from the 1985-86 season, "When we were all oh, so young and beautiful and fresh," noted McClanahan. "Well, two out of three ain't bad," joked White, 82....

(Estelle) Getty, 81, was conspicuously absent. Getty retired in 2000, after announcing she had Parkinson's disease. Arthur could barely get through a sentence, choking up when talking about how Getty's memory had faded. And McClanahan detailed her own recent phone conversation with her former co-star. "I said, `Hey, Estelle, how ya doin'?' And all she said was ... `Yes.'

I hope she's OK- when you reach a certain age, when people lose a lot of weight, you don't think they look great.

No...
