Estelle Getty passed away Tuesday at the age of 84.

To celebrate the life of Getty, Lifetime is airing 10 episodes of The Golden Girls Friday beginning at noon. That’s five full hours of all the menopausal menacing you could possibly ask for.

I only know that because I watch Lifetime nightly for Frasier between midnight and 1 a.m. And, if I’m lucky, I’m occasionally awake for a double dose of The Golden Girls at 1.

So call in sick from work. Take a half day. Get home and enjoy an afternoon filled with all the Sophia one could want.
