A buzz-worthy parody of “The Golden Girls” turned the fictional Florida seniors into stoners on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” Thursday. (Watch the video below.)

“The Ganja Girls,” aided by clips from the sitcom classic, features catchy new theme-song lyrics to comment on a recent report that many older adults are getting high and landing in the emergency room by the thousands.

Still, we think Sophia and the rest of the gang would have appreciated this:
