17. The Show’s Cancelation
Despite being one of CBS’s longest-running hits, The Jeffersons’ cast wasn’t officially told about the show’s cancellation.
Was it all over???
Hemsley only discovered he was out of a job after reading about the show’s cancellation in a newspaper article.

Similarly, Sanford was told by her tabloid-reading cousin. Devastating way to receive the news.
Money, money, money…
Is it so hard to pick up a phone and tell them directly? Apparently for these guys it was!

This is the lowest of the low. A cowardly move , surely you ring the actors and actresses that lives depend on the show.
Coward…
Yes another piece of adhoc material the producers managed to squeeze into the show. These made for great entertainment and a personal touch.
