Shows with well-known conflicts/feuds between cast members

1. The Golden Girls (Bea Arthur disliked Betty White)
2. The Partridge Family (Jeremy Gelbwaks did not get along with the rest of the cast)

[From Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Gelbwaks):

> [@](#):
>
> According to his Partridge Family co-star David Cassidy, Gelbwaks “had a personality conflict with every person in the cast, and with the producers”. Gelbwaks would frequently get into scuffles with Cassidy and Bonaduce. In a 2005 interview with the Television Academy Foundation, Shirley Jones mentioned that Gelbwaks “was not happy doing [the show] … his parents wanted him to do it, so we replaced him”.
