‘The Golden Girls’ vs. ‘Sex and the City’: How the Ladies Stack Up

Last year, everyone’s minds were blown when we realized Carrie Bradshaw and her besties were the same age in And Just Like That… as The Golden Girls roomies were when their show premiered in 1985. Times have certainly changed, and how we expect women in their 50s to present themselves has changed, too. They don’t just have their ages in common. There is a deeper connection between Sex and the City and The Golden Girls if you think about it. You can draw a parallel between some of the characters.
