The TV program "Maude" was All in the Family's first spin-off, and Beatrice Arthur had made two appearances as Edith Bunker's beloved cousin Maude. Producers Norman Lear and Bud Yorkin produced Maude, a comedy with topical plots similar to All in the Family. In two episodes of All in the Family's second season, Maude makes her first appearance as a guest to the Bunker household in December 1971 and as a backdoor pilot introducing the plot of the Maude series in March 1972. She is the beloved cousin of Edith Bunker (Jean Stapleton), who has been married four times.
From September 12, 1972, through April 22, 1978, the CBS network first aired the American comedy television series Maude. The show ran for six seasons before Bea Arthur stepped down due to poor ratings.
Bea Arthur plays the outspoken Maude Findlay in the show. Maude and her fourth husband, Walter Findlay, the proprietor of a home appliance company, reside in the New York neighborhood of Tuckahoe.
