I have always wonder how long has it been since Suzzane Somers and Joyce Dewitt have not been specking to one another it is just a shame that Joyce does not speck to each other just let by gone's be by Gone's

They probably haven't spoken to each other since 1980. That's when all the problems started. I wish they could make up too. I've come to the conclusion that they never will though. If John's death couldn't bring them together then nothing will.

that is like 29 year's

If you read the threads with the most recent interviews of both women, you'll see that both claim to have tried to make contact with one another. One of them is lying and (big surprise lol) I think it's Suzanne. She seems more bitter, if you ask me, especially considering the petty comments she sometimes makes. I wouldn't doubt she wants the fued to appear as if it's still going on just to make herself look like an innocent victim, just as she has always done. If I were Joyce, I would've just said screw it a long time ago and forget about Suzanne. Unforunately, the issue just keeps on coming up and neither one is able to just move on and forget about the other. I don't see what's wrong with that, but I can understand it bumming out fans. It doesn't bum me out, though. If they don't want to talk, then they don't have to talk. They're very different people who really do not have to be involved with one another's lives. Someone pointed this out once in another thread...think of it this way, imagine had they not been on a show, but were just regular co-workers at an office who had a fight and didn't talk to each other after that. Is it expected of them to go back to each other and make amends? If two very different people don't want to talk to one another, I see no problem with that.

Both Suzzane and Joyce should just let by gone's be by gone's this feud has been going on for 29 year's and all this over contract talk's

Unfortunately, you can't force people to end their feuds, the participating parties are the ones that have to make the first move. I've got two cousins who've been feuding for years, they can't even stand being in the same room with each other.

correct me if I am wrong but Suzzane was not Allowed on The Three's Company Set.

I think both of these ladies have big problems with each other.

I think it's pathetic that these two ladies caused so much problems with the producers and the star of the show, John Ritter, gave no problems whatsoever. Suzzane had her contract dispute that everyone knows about but if you read the Three's Company book you will see that Janet was a headache for the producers. From bitching about her character, to complaining about how the producers, to wearing pantyhose, she was a hand full.

These two ladies should have been thanking their lucky stars that they were on this show.

You forget to point out that the producers were very sexist and gave the women a lot of trouble themselves. Of course they had no problem with John; he was a man.

Frankly, it appears that Joyce DeWitt is actually the bitter party in this dispute. While I'm not a great Suzanne Somers fan, she has spoken charitably about Ms. DeWitt on several talk shows that I have seen. The same can't be said for Ms. DeWitt.

Given the fact that a nostalgia tour featuring those two actors would probably garner them a substantial amount of money, burying the hatchet would seem to be a profitable enterprise for them both.

Agree'd Cocytus. It's been 30 years Joyce. Get over it!

I believe there are two sides to every story. Maybe they both tried and just had missed chances. Don't know of course, but I wish they could put closure on this not to become friends or anything, but just put an end to the feud. Because life is too short.

Joyce Dewitt seems to have the problem. She has a problem with Somers, the producers, the direction of her character, not doing bare-legged scenes.

I'm interested to see what you guys are reading in which Joyce continues to bring this up. Is it anything recent other than a book or a true hollywood story where these questions were POSED to her, not brought up herself? If the issue has been brought up, it was by an interviewer, not her.

Also, do you have anything where she's directly said she has a problem with Suzanne Somers? I'd be interested in seeing this as well. The abundant views against her in this thread are just really surprising to me because I've read and seen nothing but articles or interviews that show things the other way around, in which Suzanne is the one with bad things to say. To me, SHE'S the one that seems to keep bringing it up. I don't have anything off hand to show this, but I'd be glad to look because I know it's out there.

Really? Well here are several quotes from Joyce DeWitt,former actress and current cheap shot artist:

Suzanne Somers became more successful than Ms. DeWitt and that is probably what irks Ms. DeWitt the most.Oh well...fame's a b-tch!

In the above article I think Joyce DeWitt did tried to contact Suzanne Somers. I've heard that Joyce, Suzanne, and Don Knotts were supposed to be in an episode of John Ritter's show "Seven Simple Rules" but Suzanne backed out and only Don Knots was in the episode. Like I've said there are two sides to every story.

Here's another article about Joyce DeWitt that she did a couple of years ago.

I look at these links and really just see an opinion on how you're interpreting her comments. And I personally don't see these articles as her bringing the issue up. The media LOVES this feud to this day and I'm sure it's one of the first things both of them are asked when interviewed. Her comments aren't even anything particularly negative, if you ask me.

"I don't know how John's death affected her. It's not really a subject that I could address because I only know from my own experience," DeWitt adds.

If anything, I see that as her perhaps avoiding a direct question that maybe was something like "How do you think John's death affected Suzanne?" To me that's a gracefully formed answer. The only thing she could have done better was to not comment altogether.

The next article, again, is answering a question. I assume you're referring to this quote?:
JD: I talked to John and I said, “You know John, I think if we take this to the press as Suzanne is choosing to do…” and that’s certainly her choice and an appropriate choice for people to make.
I can understand maybe you seeing that as a cheap-shot if read in a certain way. I don't, I see it as stating fact as that's what Suzanne WAS doing. But again, it's all how you view it. I don't want to disregard your opinion.

And the last article I assume you mean this quote: "I rarely talk about this, but we never actually had an argument. After her fight with the producers, as part of her publicity tour to make herself seem innocent, she made John and I the enemy."

Again, another simple answer to a question that is all about who you choose to believe. And I do choose to believe DeWitt, if not for the fact that Suzanne is known for causing trouble, then perhaps for John Ritter's own take on the matter, someone whom I also trust. He's largely silenced on all of this because of his death, but you can even look at things he'd said when he was still alive to show his opinion on the matter. For instance, this article: http://open.salon.com/blog/retroalitytv/2009/11/12/john_ritter_questioned_suzanne_somers_cancer_she_lies/comment Clearly stated by him, Suzanne lies period. Could she be lying about how she's tried to contact Joyce? I think so. Could she be lying about the "friendship" she'd obtained with John before his death? It's a possibility, especially since this had happened in 1996, and his comments were said in 2001. I do believe they met and made amends, but I don't believe their level of friendship after that was as strong as Suzanne often makes it out to be.

We can also say Suzanne is a cheap-shot artist herself: http://www.examiner.com/stage-and-screen-in-pittsburgh/suzanne-somers-on-surviving-cancer-gay-men-and-drag-queens-and-of-course-the-thighmaster

I don't believe Joyce is jealous. I believe Joyce has always been one to want to stay out of the spotlight, whereas Suzanne has relished in it and likes to use Joyce's supposed bitterness about Suzanne's fame to make Joyce look like the bad guy and clearly some people buy it. I don't because I'm a fan enough of Joyce to read up on her and to understand her personality. She left Hollywood on her own terms, not because she couldn't get any work. I've read her say that countless times. You can choose to believe it or choose not to. I do respect your opinion, I just disagree with it because I've seen way too much information to make me not trust Suzanne and to make me believe that Joyce is more genuine about the matter. I could be wrong but it's all a matter of how you look at it.

Sorry for the long post, lol, I'm just a bit passionate about the matter because I've had this discussion so many times before and it continues to be brought up and because I'm such a big fan of Joyce and John (and I do have respect for Suzanne, just not in the way she sometimes chooses to behave). In the end, it's probably not any of our business to judge either Joyce or Suzanne, because none of us know the truth. Only they do. We can only merely speculate.

Of course Joyce is jealous. Wake up and smell the coffee, Children. Some of you put her on a pedestal like she's some damn perfect woman who can do no wrong. That's not realistic.

Been watching this show regliously lately on TV Land. I never knew Suzanne and Joyce had problems with one another.
