The show also inspired three spin-offs, none of which were to match the popularity of The Golden Girls. It didn't matter how funny any of the series' were. Seemingly, unless Getty, Arthur, McClanahan, and White were helming the ship, it just wasn't to be for the creator, Susan Harris. Shot in front of a live studio audience, the show lasted until Bea Arthur left to concentrate on other projects. Before the show was fully cast, McClanahan and White were cast as each other's roles but switched at the last minute. Which... might have been the decision that launched a thousand ships to Shady Pines. Er, so to speak.
