“Girls” is wrapping up its final season, and for all of you mourning the loss of Hannah, Jessa, Marnie and Shoshanna, boy, do we have a treat for you.
The cast slipped back into their characters during a reunion on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” Wednesday night, in a sketch that explores where their characters end up many, many years down the line. The twist? It’s also one big homage to “The Golden Girls.”
Settle on in for a healthy serving of “Girls” nudity, self-centeredness, grounded absurdity and Elijah just bein’ Elijah. All that’s missing is a Betty White cameo.

Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
— Alyssa Katz, editor-in-chief
