History
An incarnation of the series was initially featured in the Season 2 Golden Girls episode "Empty Nests". In the episode, George and Renee Corliss (played by Paul Dooley and Rita Moreno respectively) were introduced as the Girls' neighbors, a middle-aged couple suffering from empty nest syndrome. The set of the Corliss house was exactly the same as the one that later became the Weston residence, and they also had an annoying neighbor played by David Leisure (although named Oliver). However, the premise was later extensively revamped.
