[post_page_title]Quitting the show[/post_page_title]
Despite finding great success on the show, lead actress Bea Arthur was ready to call it quits several times. The show came to its conclusion when she finally went through with her decision. According to Jim Colucci, who wrote a book about the series, her decision was motivated by the numerous insults in the script, targeting her character’s looks and physique-which related to her own physicality, as well. Colucci added that she also wanted to quit the show while it was still popular.
