Maude starred Beatrice Arthur as Maude Findlay, an outspoken, middle-aged, politically liberal woman living in suburban Tuckahoe, Westchester County, New York with her fourth husband.

However, her overbearing and sometimes domineering personality often got her into trouble when speaking out on these issues.
