In the Maid episode, Jack had a girl over and wanted to spend some time with her but Cindy was constantly coming in and out the room. So Jack told her she can leave and this DIPSH*T says

"I can't accept money for not doing anything":lol: :lol:

So either she was that stupid or didn't like the fact that Jack was about to make out with a female on the couch.

Maybe a little of both. :lol: In the episode "And Baby Makes Four" she said she would marry him and she didn't even know the real reason why Jack asked in the first place so it does make you wonder.

Yeah i forgot about that episode, and when he said he didn't have to marry her anymore she was like..........."Why? Oh Janet I;m losing him already!:lol:

I think that out of all the roommates, Jack and Cindy had the least compatibility and chemistry romantically. When they put those two in those situations, it was just weird to me. Anyone else feel this way? Comically, they were golden, but romantically, I wasn't buying it.

She was so unattractive in the presence of Jack:lol:

Because she was clumsy?

Because she was clumsy?


Yup LOL

She also seemed younger than the other roommates. Was she going to grad school or doing her undergrad when she was at UCLA? I assumed it was grad school because they said she was studying to be a vet?

I agree.

Anything Cindy might've shown for Jack was honestly just naivety, in my opinion. Runs in the family I guess lol.

And yeah, in real life Jennilee was 10 years younger than the others so I imagine it was near the same difference on the show.

i'm going with oatmeal.

Cindy was too naive and unassuming to know any better. That was the idea behind her character.

Runs in the family I guess lol.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ever noticed how sometimes when she was leaving the apartment she would RUN OUT like a 9 year would?:lol: :lol:



She never just walked out like a normal adult:lol:

She was very enthusiastic and bubbly!!!

She was very enthusiastic and bubbly!!!


Since her character plugged in the missing roomate in season 5 they could have given the character some closure. They just didn't say anything like she just spend a week at the apartment instead of a season and a half

Her last episode was Janet's Wig... :( They just sent her off like that after she wanted to show Janet her "wist watch." That was cold!! :lol:

i liked Cindy's character, but she was just such a ditz, and a walking timebomb - you just knew every time she came onscreen you'd know it be a matter of seconds before she ran into something

Yes and none of the other girls on the show really did any slapstick, but Cindy did.

LOL!!! So true!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: Especially when Jack was around!!! She got even clumsier then!!

Ms. DipsH*T LOL

I think Cindy and Chrissy's nicknames in high school would be "Slow Snow" lol.

Cindy was way brainier than the season 4 Chrissy LOL

Cindy was way brainier than the season 4 Chrissy LOL


Yes the season 4 Chrissy was dumb as WOOD:lol: :lol:

Obviously somebody liked it because season 4 was the highest rating season!

That was still the best season of the series but the Chrissy character was the weirdest in that season

Speaking of that, how many think Chrissy in seasons 3 and 4 was a lot different than Chrissy in seasons 1 and 2?

Maybe a little of both. :lol: In the episode "And Baby Makes Four" she said she would marry him and she didn't even know the real reason why Jack asked in the first place so it does make you wonder.

But remember Janet had to convince Cindy to marry Jack!

I think that's pretty much the general consensus lol.

Speaking of that, how many think Chrissy in seasons 3 and 4 was a lot different than Chrissy in seasons 1 and 2?

They progressively dumbed her down. I prefer dumb/airhead Chrissy to the beginning seasons' Chrissy because she was a lot funnier!! :lol: :lol: :lol: She always had that goofy look on her face!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Of all 4 female roomates, I think Janet had the least romantic chemsitry with Jack. She seemed to be like a sister to him. She never really seemed interested in Jack in that way at all.

Chrissy was into Jack for a little while in the early seasons, Cindy accepted his marriage proposal, and Terri was in love with Jack with the mustache . :lol:

I actually think Cindy had the most chemistry with Jack. I think the Cindy character would have worked better if Janet wasn't around.

Interesting that you say that!! I think that a large population of Three's Company fans thought Jack and Janet should've ended up together. It's interesting to hear from someone who thinks otherwise.
Honestly, I never gave much thought to them ending up together until I came on this forum. I always thought Janet seemed a bit jealous of Jack and his relationships (see other thread,) but I never thought of putting them together romantically. Now after reading about it and discussing it, had they built it up in the last season, I think that would've been a fitting "sitcom" ending. I would much prefer that to Jack and Vicky.

I agree about Jack and Vicky being a bad idea. Vicky wasn't funny at all. The show didn't work because of the bad casting.

Most people don't agree, but it would have been a much funnier show if they had Jack and Cindy together.

I would of had Cindy being clumsy only once per show and only with Jack. The mistake the writers made with the Cindy character is when she was clumsy with other characters like Janet and Furley. It became too much. It would have been much funnier if she was only clumsy with Jack. The scene in "And baby makes four" where Cindy hits Jack with the kitchen door and Jack puts up his fists ready to punch Cindy, is one of the funniest scenes in the whole series. It's friggin hilarious! :lol:

John could of had a chance to do a physical comedy bit once every week. The audience would have looked forward to it like Chevy Chase on SNL.

If any roomate would've been in TAC with Jack it would've been Janet not Cindy!

Sure was, Larry was trying to put the moves on her and she was too young in the mind to realize it lol

You can't get any more two different people. Larry was worldy, Cindy was not. Cindy was innocent, Larry was not. LOL

I was laughing when Larry just gave up on trying to make out with her and said to himself, "this b*tch is nuts"

And told her to hold her breathe and then left to go to bed :lol:

She just kept cheering!!! :lol:

AND A ONE AND A TWO!!, She put the G in Goofy LOL

I enjoyed the show more when Cindy was on. They could've left her on the show as far as I'm concerned.

Many of my favorite TC episodes come from The Cindy era. For instance, "Dying to Meet You," "Double Trouble," "Father of the Bride," "Jack's Other Mother," and "Janet's Secret."

I agree Cindy was great and they could've left her on for another year but then her running into Jack would've gotten old just like how dumb Chrissy got old.

I don't think dumb Chrissy got old. At least not to me.

I don't think dumb Chrissy got old. At least not to me.


Chrissy got funnier as she got dumber imo. And the ratings went way down after she left the show.

But people missed out because season 5 was one of the best! :)

Am I the only one that felt like Cindy had no chemistry with Jack and Janet? She didn't fit in like Chrissy or Terri did. I don't know. I mean I don't mind her as a character aside from the fact that the acting wasn't always the best, but I just didn't feel like she belonged as much as the others. I'm just surprised at how many people love Cindy lol.

I think it was her height, she was too tall

I think it was her height, she was too tall
No, it has nothing to do with her height. I think a lot of it was age. I think a lot of it was awkward acting. It just didn't mesh.

No. I'm not really judging her for physical appearance. I like to see a little diversity. That was never an issue for me with her.

While I loved season 5, it wasn't necesarily because of Cindy, although I did enjoy her physical comedy. It was because, I think, both Jack and Janet had to be funnier and the writers had to be more creative to make up for the loss of Chrissy.

I agree there. I love those seasons after Chrissy, as much as I did like Chrissy too.

Chrissy got funnier as she got dumber imo.

Exactly!!! :D I didn't really much care for the more serious Chrissy of the first few seasons. It didn't fit her well. I liked when she was dumb and goofy!! :lol:

And as much as I loved Chrissy, I have to say, most of my favorite episodes of the show come after she left. There are a few favorite Chrissy episodes I have, but those were during her last seasons and when Furley came along.

The show seemed to change then for me when The Ropers left and Furley stepped in. Don't get me wrong, I love The Ropers and those earlier seasons, but I much prefer the Furley-era seasons/episodes. :) :D

Perhaps it was that there was more physical comedy in those seasons or that there were just more of those "wacky misunderstandings" that made me fall in love with the show.

^I agree with everything you have just said. And I think that while Chrissy's dumb act was hilarious, she almost tended to dominate at times and not let the show 'flow'.

My thing is...Chrissy's dumb act DID get to be too much toward the end and here's why: her voice got too squawky and daffy sounding and the faces she made got to be too ridiculous. It all became too caricatured. Three's Company was a farce and it's supposed to be silly, but that was just too much. I think she really peaked at season 3. By the end of season 4 it was just like...wut.ru.doing.suzanne.

I mean that's not to say I still didn't enjoy the character because I do, but every once in awhile during that time period the way she talked would make me cringe lol.

Chrissy's dumb act went too far and it was time to go. Suzanne even told Joyce during their reunion she was destined to be there only so long.

The best episodes were with Cindy and Terri!

Cindy had chemistry with Jack, but she had zero chemistry with Janet, that's why they replaced her.

Joyce was friends with Suzanne and Priscilla off-screen and it showed during their performances. Joyce didn't like the fact that the producers hired an actress with little acting experience. She didn't connect with Jenilee off-screen and it showed during their performances.

I think Joyce was jealous that she was being outshined yet again by another actress with less acting experience, like she was with Suzanne.

The Cindy character was much funnier than Janet, and Joyce didn't like that. When Terri came on, she had chemistry with Jack and Janet, BUT she wasn't that funny. Jack and Janet were the stars of the show when she was around.

The reason Season 5 had some of the funniest episodes was because of the physical comedy that John and Jenilee did together. John was at his funniest during Season 5.

That's not true at all! Remember when Jack went honest Cindy and Janet had the exchange about "short legs" and "giraffe"? That's one of the funniest exchanges in the entire series!
:lol:

As others have said they could've kept Cindy on for another but I think they felt they were running out of storylines for her.

Hey look, they could have left Cindy on the show for the remainder of the show's tenure and it would have been just as funny. The reason being because John Ritter and Joyce DeWitt were still there and so were the writers! I could be wrong in saying this, but I think the dip in the Nielsen ratings in season 5 were more about losing Suzanne, rather than gaining Jenilee.

They ran out of storylines for her after she moved out of the apartment. It felt forced that they would have her show up for a few minutes every few weeks.

There was also too much of an age difference between Cindy and Janet for them to be best friends. It didn't feel believable because of the lack of chemistry.

One of the best season 6 episodes was "Maid to Order", when Cindy was hired to be the maid. Her scenes with Jack and Larry were hilarious. The only scene I didn't like in that episode was the end where Janet and Terri fell over the couches. It wasn't funny when they did physical humor.

I think some of the writing for her towards the end went a little bit too far. There's one scene in 'Upstairs, Downstairs' in season 5 where she says to Jack, "Geez, it smells good what you're cooking" and Jack says "Chrissy, I haven't started cooking yet" to which she replies, "Well you better get started so you can catch up with the smell!". :crazy: :crazy: Funny, silly, but too much?

I totally agree about the two other girls trying to do physical comedy. And you are making a case for Cindy to remain on the show at least on a part time basis.

That's friggin funny! :lol:



Yes, I laugh every time I see it. I guess comedy isn't meant to be intellectualized too much. :happyface

I thought Cindy's role was a little too big to be a NEW CHARACTER. For example, she should have never been talking to the Ropers because she didn't know them.

That bothered me:lol:

Where the actual hell do you get all of these ideas about Joyce? That's ridiculous. You're making all of these assumptions up about her and I don't like that. Nope.

Look, you have this crazy love for Cindy. Great. I'm aware. But the girl was just not significantly talented lol. I don't think she contributed anything significant to the show. More people prefer either Chrissy or Terri and that's just fact. It's only your opinion that Terri wasn't that funny, so I don't see the point in making these crazy assumptions about Joyce and that's why she had no chemistry with Jenilee. I stated that I don't think Jenilee had chemistry with either Joyce or John. The physical comedy she did was written for her, she did it to the best of her abilities, but I don't think by a longshot that she worked with John the best in regards to physical comedy. Absolutely not.

I TOTALLY AGREE! The writers and Jack's antics drove the show so they could've just let Cindy stay on!
I disagree!1one Like I said, Cindy just did not work. It was obvious she didn't work, and that's why she was replaced. She was never meant to work for a long period of time. She was a temporary replacement and she served her purpose.

I totally agree about the two other girls trying to do physical comedy. And you are making a case for Cindy to remain on the show at least on a part time basis.
See, I always thought Joyce had an excellent connection with John. Episodes like Two Flew Over the Cuckoo's nest. The both of them has always referred to the other as if they had sort of a telekinetic connection. They just knew how the other worked and so when they did physical comedy together it just fell right into place.

So I mean, it's not just me arguing this point lol. Both of the actors themselves have said it. Even Suzanne had great chemistry with the other two as well.

Janet had some good scenes with Jack in terms of physical comedy. The scene in 'Downhill Chaser' where they are trying to put on Jack's skies is a good example of that.

But in terms of pure physical comedy, I thought Jenilee did it better than the other girls, eventhough she was not as talented as them. And she was so different than everybody else, that created tension, which can create comedy and did in this instance.

I am going to ask for Season 7 on dvd for Christmas and compare it to season 6 to see if Jenilee could have made it better. :happyface

I agree with everything that you said, Ashlee. I was going to say, Joyce was GREAT at physical comedy, especially when it was with John!! The two had amazing chemistry.

By the way, "Two Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" is one of my ABSOLUTE ABSOLUTE favorites!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :happyface :happyface

They could've kept Cindy on or used her sparingly at least. I don't think she got a fair send-off. But I agree, they would've had to come up with a better reason for her to keep coming around.

Perhaps she would've needed to help pay for college and Jack gave her a job at his Bistro to help her out...after much hesitation lol? Tons of opportunities for physical comedy there!!! I swear, Jack's Bistro was the perfect opportunity to keep some of our favorites on. I still say Felipe should've gotten a job at Jack's Bistro!! :lol: Still think there was so much potential in his character!! :lol:

That episode is PRICELESS lol. I love it. Definitely one of my favorites.

I think Cindy should've gotten a better send off, though. Absolutely. I just don't think it was necessary for her to have stayed. At all.

Felipe I do agree with, though. He would've make a great featured cast member.

Where the actual hell do you get all of these ideas about Joyce? That's ridiculous. You're making all of these assumptions up about her and I don't like that. Nope.

When they had a Three's Company reunion on a 1992 episode of The Maury Povich show, Jenilee was a surprise guest and reunited with Joyce. All Three's Company fans should watch this. It had Joyce, Richard, Jenilee, and John even calls in on the phone for a few minutes. During the show, Jenilee made a comment about Joyce having "so much acting experience". By her tone of voice, you could tell these two didn't like each other much. Joyce has mentioned Jenilee's lack of acting experience in interviews before.

Look, you have this crazy love for Cindy. Great. I'm aware. But the girl was just not significantly talented lol. I don't think she contributed anything significant to the show. More people prefer either Chrissy or Terri and that's just fact.

Actually, more people prefer Chrissy, and I'm one of them, as I've stated before. Jack, Janet, and Chrissy in seasons 1-3 had the best chemistry, in my opinion.

It's only your opinion that Terri wasn't that funny, so I don't see the point in making these crazy assumptions about Joyce and that's why she had no chemistry with Jenilee. I stated that I don't think Jenilee had chemistry with either Joyce or John. The physical comedy she did was written for her, she did it to the best of her abilities, but I don't think by a longshot that she worked with John the best in regards to physical comedy. Absolutely not.

That's just YOUR OPINION (see, I can do that too!). I'm aware that you have this crazy love for Janet and you wish she and Jack would have ended up together in the end, BUT John was against the idea. He made it clear in the E True Hollywood Story that he didn't think it would have worked. Sorry! :p

It had Joyce, Richard, Jenilee, and John even calls in on the phone for a few minutes. During the show, Jenilee made a comment about Joyce having "so much acting experience". By her tone of voice, you could tell these two didn't like each other much. Joyce has mentioned Jenilee's lack of acting experience in interviews before.



Actually, more people prefer Chrissy, and I'm one of them, as I've stated before. Jack, Janet, and Chrissy in seasons 1-3 had the best chemistry, in my opinion.



That's just YOUR OPINION (see, I can do that too!). I'm aware that you have this crazy love for Janet and you wish she and Jack would have ended up together in the end, BUT John was against the idea. He made it clear in the E True Hollywood Story that he didn't think it would have worked. Sorry! :p
Again, these are all assumptions on your part. If Joyce has mentioned anything about Jenilee's lack of acting experience (which is fact), and did so in any way other than stating a fact, then I'd like to see it for myself. The way she normally talks about other people, I highly doubt anything was said in spite. That's nonsense. Neither of them were ever known as having an issue with one another, so I don't know where this is all coming from other than that you seem to just want to pit Joyce against someone.

Going by this website and a website I run, and the comments I see on them, it's always quite split even between Chrissy and Terri. My point was that Cindy isn't often mentioned compared to these two, so I don't see why you need to bring up that Chrissy is overall preferred. That wasn't my point.

So to clarify that last one, the reason I bring up your opinion regarding Terri not being funny is because you used that opinion to argue that that is why she was allowed to stay. You seem to be saying that because Terri wasn't as funny, Joyce was pleased and so the producers kept her. Because as we all know, the opinions of the women on the show were of the utmost importance to the producers and they did everything in their power to respect them and their dignity. NOTE THE SARCASM.

I mean come on, really? I don't mean to be rude to you, but you're using some pretty silly arguments. Just because you didn't think Terri was funny doesn't mean that others didn't think so. Again, lots of fans of the show like her very much so you can't really say that because she wasn't funny, that worked in Joyce's favor...because the fact that she wasn't funny is only an opinion! Do you see what I am saying now?

And don't patronize me with that last part. I'm aware of that fact and it doesn't change my opinion in the slightest. That has nothing to do with this discussion.

Janet had some good scenes with Jack in terms of physical comedy. The scene in 'Downhill Chaser' where they are trying to put on Jack's skies is a good example of that.

But in terms of pure physical comedy, I thought Jenilee did it better than the other girls, eventhough she was not as talented as them. And she was so different than everybody else, that created tension, which can create comedy and did in this instance.

I am going to ask for Season 7 on dvd for Christmas and compare it to season 6 to see if Jenilee could have made it better. :happyface
lol I respect your opinion, but agree to disagree I guess. I just don't think her physical comedy skills were anything exceptional. Yes, she did hold her own with John, but by no means was it anything of note imo.

I never understood why they had Cindy hanging around once she moved out:confused:


Terri was the new roomate so that should have been it

The thing about Terri is that her character was never able to develop. This is the main reason why in interviews Priscila has stated that she was not ever happy on the show. The Terri character was funnier in the beginning but, as has been stated here before, never developed an identity. So although she was a better actress than Jenilee, her character was never able to be as funny as it could be.

Going by this website and a website I run, and the comments I see on them, it's always quite split even between Chrissy and Terri.


So what is your website? Can we take a look? :D

I agree with everything that you said, Ashlee. I was going to say, Joyce was GREAT at physical comedy, especially when it was with John!! The two had amazing chemistry.

By the way, "Two Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" is one of my ABSOLUTE ABSOLUTE favorites!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :happyface :happyface

They could've kept Cindy on or used her sparingly at least. I don't think she got a fair send-off. But I agree, they would've had to come up with a better reason for her to keep coming around.

Perhaps she would've needed to help pay for college and Jack gave her a job at his Bistro to help her out...after much hesitation lol? Tons of opportunities for physical comedy there!!! I swear, Jack's Bistro was the perfect opportunity to keep some of our favorites on. I still say Felipe should've gotten a job at Jack's Bistro!! :lol: Still think there was so much potential in his character!! :lol:

I agree Cindy should've stayed and having her at the bistro would've been hilarious! But Jenillee was in big demand and Dallas came calling remember?

It would've cost too much to keep her on plus have Terri! The producers were stingy which is probably why the Ropers or Lana or Cindy never came for Janet's wedding.

Again, these are all assumptions on your part. If Joyce has mentioned anything about Jenilee's lack of acting experience (which is fact), and did so in any way other than stating a fact, then I'd like to see it for myself.

Neither of them were ever known as having an issue with one another, so I don't know where this is all coming from other than that you seem to just want to pit Joyce against someone.

Joyce never said anything in spite? Really? Did you see the glee in her eye when she talks about how she's glad Three's a Crowd failed just because she wasn't included on the show. I'm not going to say anything bad about Joyce, because I'm a fan of her work on Three's Company, but ask yourself why hasn't she had a steady acting job on television since Three's Company?

Going by this website and a website I run, and the comments I see on them, it's always quite split even between Chrissy and Terri. My point was that Cindy isn't often mentioned compared to these two, so I don't see why you need to bring up that Chrissy is overall preferred. That wasn't my point.

I'm sure Chrissy is more preferred over Terri by a landslide if you polled the millions of people who watch the show around the world. Three's Company is known for Jack, Janet, and CHRISSY!

Because as we all know, the opinions of the women on the show were of the utmost importance to the producers and they did everything in their power to respect them and their dignity. NOTE THE SARCASM.

I never said Terri was ALLOWED to stay because she wasn't funny. I'm well aware of the producers attitude toward the women on the show and how they favored John's opinions over the womens. I said that Joyce was more comfortable with the Terri character not being as funny so it didn't out shine HER. Joyce wanted it to be her and John as the stars of the show. She felt like it was her and him since day one and that's the main reason she felt slighted when she wasn't invloved in Three's a Crowd.

The time the producers hired Priscilla, they weren't looking for a super funny actress to keep the show going for years. They were already planning Three's a Crowd. They looked for somebody to fill the slot who wouldn't outshine ANYONE including John. John was their golden boy and their main interest was making him the star. They didn't want another situation like Suzanne where somebody else beside John was getting more laughs at times. That was most evident when they hired the actrees who played Vicky. She might have been the least funniest actress in Hollywood at the time. :lol:

I was referring to Jenilee. The Three's A Crowd thing was in spite, but can you blame her there?

As far as not acting after Three's Company, she opted out of that opportunity herself. She didn't WANT to work on TV.

I'm sure Chrissy is more preferred over Terri by a landslide if you polled the millions of people who watch the show around the world. Three's Company is known for Jack, Janet, and CHRISSY!
Agree to disagree. I might say that Chrissy has a slight edge, but certainly not a landslide.

Do you have any quotes/statements from articles and books? I'd like to see them. And I don't mean your interpretations of what was said, I'd like to see what was actually said that led you to all of these conclusions.

So what is your website? Can we take a look? :D
I run a fan blog on tumblr. Mostly younger people on the site, so you'll have to understand when I tell you the title of it is "F**k Yeah Three's Company." It's a running gag title on the site for fan pages of shows and celebrities. Look up "**** yeah three's company tumblr" on google. If I type it in here, it'll just block it out. I already tried to put it in my sig before and it didn't work obviously lol.

I;m going to analyze your site:)

lol God Solomon. It's pictures and gifs. There's nothing to analyze. Go for it I guess, though.

Edit: Unless by analyze, you just mean "view" it. lol.

As far as not acting after Three's Company, she opted out of that opportunity herself. She didn't WANT to work on TV.

Yes, I can blame her. The producers wanted to do a new show without her. They didn't owe it to her to include her on anything. Don't you think there's a reason it was handled the way it was.... If you think Joyce didn't want to get back on TV after her "spiritual break" she took for 8 years, I don't know what to tell you.


Agree to disagree. I might say that Chrissy has a slight edge, but certainly not a landslide.

I WOULD say landslide, but I agree to disagree.

I've been a Three's Company fan since the show actually aired in primetime. I read the Chriss Mann book, I watched the E True Hollywood Story. I've watched countless interviews with various producers over the years. If you didn't watch these interviews yourself, I don't know what to tell you. Some people actually don't think the producers were sexist. People believe what they want to believe. I guess we will agree to disagree about Terri. :wave:

I would say the TC fans are pretty split when it comes to who was better Chrissy or Terri. But I think the general public favored Chrissy. People who weren't that loyal to the show would tune in to see Chrissy. That's why the ratings peaked the last season Chrissy was on, when her character was at her dumbest(and funniest). It kind of reminds me of James Bond. If you ask many of the die hard Bond fans(Bond geeks I call them), they all favor Sean Connery and many dislike Roger Moore. But Moore was enormously popular with the general movie-going public. Same concept.

But why compare? Terri was funny in her own way. She added some things that Chrissy didn't and helped make those last few seasons great ones. Plus, Priscila was the only TC girl I actually had a crush on. There was just something about her.

Yes, I can blame her. The producers wanted to do a new show without her. They didn't owe it to her to include her on anything. Don't you think there's a reason it was handled the way it was.... If you think Joyce didn't want to get back on TV after her "spiritual break" she took for 8 years, I don't know what to tell you.
Then I guess you're not aware of how the entire cast was left out of the dark about all of this. They had no idea where the show was going, or whether it was ending, of the state of their jobs. I'm a hardcore TC fan too, bud. I've read the books, I've watched the interviews, I read the articles. I'm on top of it all. Clearly we've just interpreted it differently. No, I don't think she was interested in doing TV again. She never was. She always stated she was more interested in theater. I believe her. It's not for everyone.

Most actors don't know the state of their jobs after the television season ends. That's part of being an actor. But we will agree to disagree on that point. I know your a hardcore Three's Company fan. I am as well. I think you should watch that 1992 Maury Povich show where Joyce announces her return from her 8 year "spiritual quest". She was ready to act in television, film, and theater again. I don't think the job offers were coming the way she thought they would.

I was using the "producers were sexist" as an example. We both came to the same conclusion on that, but some people don't think so. People believe what they want to believe. What could be blatantly obvious to one person, the other person just don't see it. :crazy:

I suppose so, then. I mean it wasn't just her that felt cheated. The rest of the cast wasn't pleased either. Even John felt guilty about. I wish I had the book on hand so I could find quotes, but half of my stuff is in the city right now because I'm in the process of a move lol.

If I knew where I could find this reunion, I'd gladly watch it. I'll tell you what, it's not easy for any actress over 40 to get work. Only now is it starting to happen a little more. Hollywood isn't a fair place. I still think a lot of it has to do with her just not being interested.

But oh God, good. Then I'd REALLY think you were crazy. :p

When I saw you had over 68,000 posts, I said this girl might be bonkers! but then I saw you voted for Obama and you love Three's company, I said this girl is cool in my book. :lol:

Oh God lol. I've been posting here since I was 13 years old. That's ten years. I used to chat with my friends via this message board on those random threads, so that counts for the rack up of posts lol. I assure you I'm not a TOTAL loser.

As for crazy, yeah probably a little bit. The best people are. :p

I never knew Joyce tried to work again in 92. You know what they say for an actress over 40 plus Joyce already started to look old at the end of TC.

I agree with CA that she burned her bridges with her statements and actions after the show ended and the years following that.

You have to kind of be a suck up to succeed in Hollywood.

You think it's a sign of desperation that she sells autographed pics of herself on her site for $25? I mean I did read once that she's worth $2 million so why does she need to do that!

Ba ROCK is da man! :)

We showed the Romney/Ryan supporters didn't we? :wave:

I have to agree that they didn't develop the Terri character enough. I mean, what did we really know about her aside from she was a nurse, always wanted to be a nurse, and could defend herself against creepos at the bar? :lol:
We do know that she was the smartest of the blonde roomies though!! :lol:
It seemed to me that she was always headed off to work. I would've liked to have seen them develop her character more and include her more in the storylines. But then again, maybe we just had more of a chance to get to know Jack and Janet?

P.S., I so wish we could see that Maury reunion episode!!!

Teri had her moments. I loved her in the episode where they all go on tv. She had me falling out of my seat in that one. :lol:

Oh yeah, "And Now Here's Jack" is another one of my favorites!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ever noticed how sometimes when she was leaving the apartment she would RUN OUT like a 9 year would?:lol: :lol:



She never just walked out like a normal adult:lol:

I'd rather live on the street than share an apartment with Cindy.
