Goodbye Valerie!
Just because you have the lead role of your titular show doesn’t mean your unacceptable behavior will be tolerated, and that’s what happened with Valerie Harper. We can’t imagine the confusion she must have felt knowing she was laid off from the show that was titled after her.
She was the star of the TV show Valerie, which was later on named The Hogan Family after her the creators had to end her part in the show. So, what exactly happened was that she demanded a raise in pay just after two seasons, and was faced with clear rejection.
