As great as The Golden Girls is, there are definitely some dud episodes. What are the ones that make you change the channel?

I don't know why exactly, but the episode where Dorothy might not be Sophia's daughter irritates me. Not one of my favorites.

I don't like the ones stans therapy sessions with the monkey ! So random. I don't like the one where Kate comes and tells Dorthy he had an affair as I don't like the way Dorthy acted -Sophia was right from the start. I don't like the one wit balance and the windchimes at her granny's old house. The popes ring and question and answers are other dud ones not a fan of season 7 really although there are a few good ones .

The Empty Nest episode - ohh, terrible! And also anything with Michael Zbornak. What a whiney little boy.

We've said it before but it's always worth repeating - MR. TERRIF-ICK! I'm sure he's a very nice person, but that man bothers me in an irrational way.

I thought I had posted this here, but it seems I was mistaken. Here are two of my least favorite GG episodes:
1. Season 5 episode An Illegitimate Concern, God how I loathe this episode, I really do.
So they make George out to be a cheater who has an illegitimate child behind Blanche's back and make an episode out of it. Fine. But to then go on and ruin some of the strong character we've seen in Sal and most of all Charlie, by making them out to be cheaters as well, just to sell a joke, not even good ones?! That pisses me off, royally! Dorothy doesn't seem to care that her father cheated on her mother, despite what she herself went through with Stan. And Charlie, of all people, cheating on Rose? Give me a break!
Anyone else feels this way? Surely I can't be the only one?
2. Season 5 episode Twice in a Lifetime, another season 5 dud. What were they thinking here? Rose suddenly had another boyfriend in high school (despite being with Charlie since she was a child) and claims she never got over him?! Ridiculous. Also don't like the way she treats Miles. I think season 5 is easily my least favorite season the the show.

I don't like Questions and Answers from season 7 when the guy tells Dorothy people wouldn't like her. I don't like any episode where anyone is mean to Dorothy!!!!

I think for me it would have to be The Pilot. I just thought it was a horrible introduction to the show. I liked the cook but he added nothing to the show and it would have probably not worked out if he was a full time cast member, (perhaps a recurring character like Stan or Miles.) There was something special about the all female cast and that dynamic. Had I been alive and at an age where I could understand the material when the pilot aired I probably would not have watched this show. To me it just left a bad first impression.

I feel like the writing went downhill after season 4 (don’t throw tomatoes). Some of the antics from the second half of the series make the Girls unrecognizable as the smart, witty women of early seasons. Can you picture season 2 Dorothy calling Ma a furry little gnome? She had much smarter insults. Stan with a cone monkey? Would have been ridiculous in season 3. Losing the original writers was a shame

I don't know why exactly, but the episode where Dorothy might not be Sophia's daughter irritates me. Not one of my favorites. This episode is rather silly in the fact that Dorothy is over 55 years old and so would Gina, the one Dorothy was supposedly switched at birth with. The idea that Gina is just now entering an arranged marriage in her late 50s is ridiculous!

I don't care for many of the season 7 episodes. Sophia's personality changed too much more to unfunny and annoying. I really disliked that Beatlemania episode where Dorothy was obsessed with it and Blanche took her date with some guy who wouldn't sleep with her. The episode where Blanche goes looking for Sophia in Sicily was stupid and the ones with Stan's therapy with that stupid monkey and sleeping with Dorothy's sister. Even the finale episode with Dorothy getting married was ridiculous. I did like the season 7 episodes where they do the murder mystery weekend and when they crash the high school reunion.
Ending the show with Rose's homecoming from the hospital in "Home Again" would have been a nice finale. The whole Dorothy/Lucas engagement and wedding for the final episode was silly. They should have just started Golden Palace without Dorothy and said she had went to live with one of her kids or took a job somewhere.

Some of season 5's episodes were terrible, I think that was after Terry Hughes left, and some of the storylines started to get really odd.
