Alston, in a nice piece on her new show:
The sitcom for which White is most known, The Golden Girls, didn’t shy away from the issues women grapple with as they age. But it wasn’t a pity party; it was a silver-haired version of Friends—built around the idea that fun, friendship, love, and triumph don’t have to end when you move from one phase of life to the next. The only thing on the air that’s similar to it now is the new slice-of-life reality series Sunset Daze, which follows a sextet of 60ish women living in an Arizona retirement community. They’re vibrant and funny: enjoying their golden years, not defeatedly wading through them. It’s a rare example of reality television that genuinely reflects reality, rather than Hollywood’s dystopic views of divorced and widowed empty nesters marching inexorably toward isolated, joyless futures. Like Sunset Daze, White’s lioness-in-spring phase is a much-needed reminder to older women that life doesn’t end until it ends. But in order to get the message, they’ll have to pay attention to how White behaves in life, not how she acts on television.
