He was advised that the show did not want him back, so he decided to go to New York to find other work. It should be noted that Don DeFore said during his "Written Out of Television" interview, that he received a call from his attorney telling him his option was not being picked up after the move to CBS was announced.

However, they sent Harold to live with George's younger brother, Realtor Steve, and his wife so that the boy would not be uprooted from his school. George Baxter the attorney accepted a job in the Middle East and his wife, Dorothy, accompanied him. The transition from the original characters to the last season change was explained in this manner. At the conclusion of this last - season, Miss Booth was unable to continue, and the show ended. She required a nurse present on the set and by the middle of that last season, most scenes are devoted to Ann Jillian and Mala Powers and their characters' interactions with the Baxter family. Miss Booth was also slowly succumbing to illness. There were other factors to the failure of the Sitcom Hazel. This is also thought to be an additional factor of the failure of the new theme. It was in the first scene with Ray Fulmer as Steve Baxter showed him confidently predicting that Hazel would not upend his life the way she had his brother George's. The new show would be instituted by Miss Booth where her relationship with Steve Baxter would be less adversarial than that with George Baxter. Unfortunately, DeFore and Whitney Blake by the time of the final commitments had found other commitments and could not be part of the new Hazel.

Then CBS had expressed an interest to pick up the show so Shirley Booth who played Hazel agreed to finance that endeavor. So, at this time all the actors on the first generation of Hazel went out to look for other work. Lynn Borden, who played Barbara Baxter in the revised-format 1965-6 season, she has said that at the end of the 1964-5 season, NBC had ended the show. Viewers are so curious why the format was revised on Hazel and essentially killed the sitcom within one year of this transition.
