5th Season DVD COVER: DO YOU THINK SUZANNE WILL BE ON THE COVER?

The infamous 5th season comes to dvd in the fall as I heard from sources.
DO YOU THINK SUZANNE WILL BE ON THE COVER? SHE WAS STILL AN OFFICIAL CAST MEMBER. I HOPE THE 5th SEASON DVD COMES WITH A BONUS THAT EXPLORES THIS DIFFICULT SEASON. GIVEN THE ANGER THAT STILL REMAINS FROM THE 1980-1981 season Between Suzanne and the Cast and crew of Three's company the season is a crucial point in the history of the show

Why wouldn't she be if she was on the show during the 5th season? Now i don't expect her to be on the cover of Season 6 because well you know the rest-lol

She will most definitely be on there. I'd bet my life on it. She is an integral part of the show and is part of what sells the DVDs. If she weren't included, it might hurt sales (fans of hers/Chrissy may think Season 5 is when Terri started). Fans of the show want every season, but not everyone who buys the DVDs buys it for the same reasons. Some will buy it for John Ritter and some will buy Season 4 (but not Seasons 1-3) for Don Knotts, and some will buy it just for Suzanne. Whether one agrees that she deserved to be fired from the show, the Chrissy years are still regarded by most as the best years and you can bet DLT will want to milk the Chrissy connection for all its worth.

I just hope a pic of Jenilee Harrison is included as well. She deserves some sort of recognition I think. She wasn't Chrissy, but she did provide some humor to the show. And given how she was unceremoniously fired from the show (even while being forced to work with her replacement, Priscilla Barnes), I think she's due to be acknowledged. She, along with Suzanne, should be on the cover (probably in a montage of sorts, since they were never photographed together), or at least be included on the back.

i'd rather jenilee be on the cover. i love suzanne, but she really dont deserve to be on the cover. its just a fact of life. after what they did to jenilee after s5, i think she deserves more recognition than suzanne for this season. she was hard at work, while suzanne was screwing the cast and crew royally.

Come on ED, you know jenilee will not be on the cover if she was an added character in season 5. Don't be silly Ed-lol

LOL, I guess I was being a tad silly. But I did say I *hope* Jenilee is on the cover along with Suzanne. I didn't say I *think* Jenilee will be on there. I think the best thing to hope for realistically is that a pic of Jenilee will be included on the back somehow. She does deserve to be there. Cindy Snow made more appearances than Lana and if Anne Wedgeworth can grace the Season 4 cover (which I have no problem with, actually), then clearly Jenilee merits a pic on the back of Season 5 at least. That's my opinion anyway. But I don't *know* which way it'll go. I just know for certain that Suzanne will be on the cover, since Chrissy has been one of the main attractions of the show. No way will Anchor Bay or DLT ignore that...

Uhm, not to get into another debate about the Suzanne salary dispute, but I think the 'screwing' was working both ways actually. Suzanne was willing to come back to the show at one point (almost in the middle of the season) but the producers were out to punish her. They were intent on humiliating her in the most public way by having her appear one minute each week at the end for the tag. Afterwards, Suzanne publicly asked fans of the show to ask the show to take her back or they wouldn't watch anymore, which led to ABC giving the producers the green light to fire her.

She clearly messed up and burned her bridges, but less than halfway through she was willing to come back to work and resume the show. She didn't even want any raise at that point. The producers wanted restitution and were not willing to take her back. They were willing to endanger the show with their desire to punish her (no one knew if Three's Company would plummet in the ratings without Suzanne/Chrissy) so I have to say I think the blame is on both parties.

Suzanne was out of line, no question, but she paid dearly for it, more than she deserved to (in my opinion) while the producers, who weren't willing to share their wealth with ANYONE, got rich while subsequently abusing Joyce DeWitt, Priscilla Barnes, Jenilee Harrison, Anne Wedgeworth, Norman Fell & Audra Lindley. I don't think it's right or fair for people to harbor a grudge against Suzanne while the other guilty party has not had to answer for any of the abuses that they inflicted on their company of actors, let alone on Suzanne.

Sorry, but that's my opinion...

She was intended to be a regular (she did debut in Season 4's second episode) much like in the vein that Richard Kline was. It ended up not working that way, but that was clearly the intent.

PERSONALLY, I FEEL SUZANNE SHOULD BE ON THE COVER ALONG WITH Jenilee Harrison. Jenilee Harrison is a beautiful and talented actress, who I enjoyed watching on Dallas. I think as Bonus they should deal the contract dispute that caused so much anger. Personally, I find stupid that people after 25 years are still holding grudges. Shame on those people

I agree. Jenilee deserves way more recognition to be on the cover than Susanne does. After all, Jenilee didn't try to blackball the show because she wasn't getting what she wanted $$$, unlike some other person who shall remain nameless. :rolleyes:

i said i liked suzanne but in my opinion, the cast and crew had a right to screw her. jenilee went through alot too remember. getting fired at the end of season five and then being forced to work in season 6? thats messed up. suzanne and her husband did it to themselves. what jenilee went through was unthinkable, and she deserves to be on the cover. if suzanne is on the cover, with jenilee, i'll be happy.

I think Suzanne will more than likely appear on the cover, simply because her image will sell more DVDs than Jenilee Harrison's. Hopefully they'll be able to somehow edit Jenilee into a cast pic, like Lion's Gate recently edited a Saved by the Bell photograph to include cast members who weren't on at the same time.
