I would just like to say as a new member its great to see how many loyal fans there are towards three's company.. I consider myself to be very knowlegable of the show. I first saw three's Company when I was 6. I was born in 75 so the only things I truly understood was the goofiness of jack tripper and the "stupidity" of chrissy snow.. As I got older I began to understand all the innuendos that made ithe show what it is today... its amazing to see how special the show was and how many people truly embraced the kids into their homes every week.

I have so many favorite episodes but one of the funniest ones was when janet's love interest was barry williams from the brady bunch.. ritter's acting while on tranquilzers was hilairious... unfortunately due to time constrictions tvland tends to cut some parts of the show..

I find the episodes with don knotts alot more funnier than with normal fell but I truly enjoyed every season with the exception of the last which was rushed..

anyway if anyone wants to chat up any episodes i would be more than happy to respond.. thanks, for reading

Welcome aboard! :wave: There is a fine bunch of TC fans on this board, though it has quieted down some since TC is no longer being televised and most folks now have all the DVDs.

Well since me and you were born the same year, there is not much I want to ask you-lol I usually like to talk to TC fans who watched the show during it's original run on ABC so if you were born in 1960, I would have asked


1. Did you think Chrissy would return to the show

2. What was your first reaction to TerrI?

3. Were you Upset when Mr. Roper Left?

Actually I work in television I do know alot about the show and behind the scenes.. No, I knew suzanne somers wasnt returning to the show. she was heavily influenced by her husband alan Hamel. He didnt think she should go back to a top 5 show for the amt she was getting.. The problem was, she wasnt the star. John Ritter was and without him there wouldnt be a show.


Priscilla Barnes was a quick choice for terri... Since Jennilee harrison didnt cut the mustard they looked quickly for another blonde replacement.. I thought she was decent , much better than cindy but no chrissy. barnes is from new jersey my neck of the woods



The funny thing is the ropers didnt want to leave.. they were promised if their show didnt do well in the ratings then they would be able to return
full time.. unfortunately, for them don knotts became a huge hit and they left fell and lindlay out of the loop. you didnt hear much about them after the show..

thank you, what are some of your favorite episodes?

I should have been more clear, I really don't need you to answer those questions because you and I are the same age. I want to know a person's answer from experience not what they read or find out in books or TV.

OK BEST OF LUCK

P.S. dont need to be older to find out any answers.. most of my info wasnt from tv or books

Well the fact that you were 2 years old when TC aired on ABC and 9 years old when it went off the air, I wouldn't be able to take your answers seriously. It would be better for me to talk to someone who was in Highschool when TC aired on ABC

you would be surprised.

p.s. you are more than welcome to quiz me

For the last time, I'm not trying to find out anything about the show, i just would like to ask questions to a TC fan who is 45 years old and over.

Welcome to The Borad

thank u...

ok, but i dont see what age has anything to do with it

How could you tell me your feelings about when Three's Company first aired in 1977 and we were both 2 years old?-LOL

1960....what....................look I was 9 years old when the show started its run in 1977, was a religious watched of the show from start to finish. Now if your implying that a 9 year old didn't have a good memory 30 years ago , well
I'm a little offended :lol: Seriously, if your between 38-40 that's prob the min age you would have to been to remember the program for its entire run. I be honest with you, changes always happen on TV shows, if you like the show , you go with the flow.....Bottom line I watched the show cause of John Ritter.

For the last time, I'm not trying to find out anything about the show, i just would like to ask questions to a TC fan who is 45 years old and over.
I'm 44, lol. I was around 13 in the sping of '77. I remember the first show and thought it was hilarious, the second season got even funnier. My parents liked the show too. I even remember when Too Close For Comfort was going to make it's debut right after Three's Company. I remember the promo with John Ritter and Ted Knight, Ted said something to the effect of "We're on following you and we're funny". And John Said, "You better be".

I dont think it matters what age a person is as long as they can appreciate the show for what its worth.. We all have a favorite character, episode but we all can appreciate the fact that the show is one of the best comedies in history...

oh and rest in peace dean travers... i know he died a couple of yeard ago but he died at the hosptial the next town where im from

Welcome to the boards :wave:

Now that's what I like. Great Post. 44 is a good age. I prefer 44 to be the mininum, 44 and higher. No one in their 30's

Who cares

Who cares


Go away

I made the post u go away..

I made the post u go away..



Can you please tell me why you got an attitude with me because I wanted to talk to someone who was 45 or over?-lol

What diff does age matter when speaking to them concerning a subject you are both familiar with. Kind of like saying you have to be 22 currently to remember 9/11 cause if your 16 you were only 10 in 2001, and you can't poss remember any details. That's the same type of backward thinking Bobby Clarke had to the new NHL- and look how good the flyers are doing now- dead last in the league..........happy trails Legion of Doom.

It's because I take a 20 year old more seriously than a 10 year old

What the @#$%%#$ are you talking about. We weren't talking about a 20 year old being more credible tha a 10 year old. Memory is memory. Oviously you don't much memory prior to being age 16. School was oviously a waste of time for you cause you cant remember anything you learned prior to being a junior in high school. So all of us on this forum shouldn't waste anymore time with you....you need to go back and study what you forgot about prior to age 16. Maybe then you can give us some sensible responses.

You are all over the place. I want to talk to someone who was in highschool or older while three's company was on the air, in regards to certain things, The End
