Why is there an exclaimatin point on the inside of the front door of the Golden Girls house?

fletch0001 · 07-30-2001, 01:30 AM

it was said that the front door exclamation point was done by bea arthur (dorothy) as a symbol of good luck. i believe there are other ones in some of the other doors also if i remember right.

I've never seen the exclamation point. Can you tell me if it is in every episode, or if you can see it more clearly in some eps than others? Also, what part of the door is it on? I'd be really greatful if you can answer my questions!

It's on the front door in the middle to the left. You can see it an almost any episode that you can see the door!

I thought it was in the top panel, but at the botton...

I just finally saw it the other day. It's almost like an indentation... it doesn't look "carved" or anything...

... but it's cool to see.

You know, I've noticed that exclamation point in the door for years, but I just thought it was a natural flaw in the paneling!

jayman75 · 06-11-2002, 07:09 PM

It's a neat little thing, huh?

I don't know if youalso noticed that there are exclamation points in the paneling of the wood right before you enter the hallway to enter the bedrooms. I don't think there is any points on the kitchen door but I think there are on the bedroom doors as well. I have always noticed the marks but never said anything because I figured it was part of the design or maybe I was just me seeing this. Good at least I'm not alone on this opinion!!!

Too funny,,I've always noticed it too...never knew if it was a natural flaw in the wood or what.

One of those things I always meant to ask...another one of life's mysteries solved.

Sorry to cause conflict here, but I read a message---either somewhere here at a Yahoo GG group---that the "exclamation point" actually was a flaw, and had nothin' to do with anyone actually puttin' it there.
