Mario was an idiot on The Golden Girls

Golden Girls was generally quite ham-fisted when they tried to do issue-oriented episodes. Those tend to be their worst episodes - aside from that terrible backdoor pilot. Designing Women did much better with their issue episodes birth control and AIDs, racism, fat women, etc

I hate this episode so much. Mario Lopez has always been a shitty actor.

They have movie theaters in Mexico too, Mario.

Dorothy ate Mario’s shit right up too. She was trying to be a do-gooder. Ugh!

I don't remember if Mario ended up getting to stay in the US. Does anyone remember?

I think he was deported.

I'll never tire of posting this:

[quote]This thread and others make me think that Datalounge is basically a secret underground civilization of people who have never seen the actual world above. The only clues they have to it are some ancient videotapes of the complete series of "I Love Lucy" and "The Golden Girls," and they watch these over and over again, obsessing about them, going over every last detail, and wondering just how life in the sunlit world above can possibly correspond to the details of what they're seeing on the holy videotapes.

They sent him back to Cuba.

Sadly, he was from Mexico.

Dorothy swore that she'd help Mario fight to come back, but after he left, she never mentioned him again.

Eventually he came back to Miami and raped Gladys Goldfein.

I hated the red headed bitch who portrayed Blanche’s younger sister - Charmaine.

Also the big mouthed ugly old bitch who acted as a committee member for the talent show that was to feature Rose’s father - Bob Hope.

I hated all the characters except the little man in the fridge.

Bob Hope's bit - Reagan joke after Reagan joke

The confusing house plan in GG has been scrutinized over many threads, but some day we will figure it out and emerge from our underground cavern to walk in the sun and eat cheese-cake, victorious at last.

Why was he an idiot exactly?

Face it Dorothy, Mario is limited.

Mario was deported to Bayside, Ca and had his name changed to A.C.Slater for protection.

OP is an old, fat, idiot fart on DL.

What a dumbass!

^ mature?

He's not a good actor, but had a nice butt.

There used to be a "Lives the Golden Girls Ruined" thread and there was a good post in there about Dorothy submitting his essay without Mario's knowledge, thereby initiating the sequence of events that led him to be deported.

I think it also showed up in the "Salon/Huffington Post GG Headlines" thread, something like:

"Racist Miami Substitute Teacher exercises White Privilege and gets talented LatinX writer deported"

Actually it might've been "White-supremacist-associating Miami Substitute teacher......" (gotta get the Barbra Thorndyke connection in there)

Can you imagine thinking you’re among friends while sitting with a bunch of strangers at a movie theater in Miami?

Sounds fucked up.

I wonder if Mario Lopez tried to fuck Beatrice Arthur?

R26 She did sign his foreskin with "Your Auntie Bea eats shiitake mushrooms".

Op makes me laugh and fart simultaneously

R28 Thankfully you were safely backed up against that pillow!

I love how the "brilliant" young Mario who was fluent in English with a perfect American accent, and was able to win a district-wide essay-writing contest, was somehow in need of an after-school tutor.

He was a loser who thought he was as among friends while sitting in a movie theater with complete strangers. A total moron. Dorothy wanted to have sex with him.
