Next week I am going on vacation with my family to Disneyland. I am a huge Three's Company fan, so we are stopping by the Santa Monica Pier on the way down. Does anybody know the exact filming locations that were used on Three's Company, opening and closing credits for Seasons 1-5. Any help would really be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi Ben,

The first opening credits (seasons 1-3) were filmed in front of (and slightly south of) The Gingerbread Court, near Thornton Ave., on Ocean Front Walk (Venice's boardwalk). Aside from knowing a thing or two about Three's Company : ), I used to live a few blocks from this location and am quite confident this is where Jack fell on his bicycle.

As for the SM Pier scenes (season 4-5), much of the pier has changed since 1979, but you'll still find the carousel there, and maybe another building or two.

Have a fun "trip"!

I've always wanted to travel there, I'm hoping to hopefully next year.

Chris ,

Thanks so much for the info. I am looking foward to checking out the Pier next week. Do you happen to know if the store that the cast walked out of with the printed shirts is still there : Beachcomber gift shop ? Thanks for responding to my message. I have not talked to you in a while , I hope all is well.

Thanks , Ben ( Porkys1982 )
