The show was never great. It wasn't awful either except for the theme song. :lol: I'd say it boned when the young woman moved in with the Ropers. Were they trying to attract a younger audience by bringing in a 20 something woman? It just didn't work. That was towards the end of the series anyway so it's not a big deal.

And since they added her they were also supposed to add a young guy to the cast to live with the neighbors.
Being the only young person on the show without any other cast member her age defeated her purpose on the show

I guess they were trying to turn the Ropers into foster parents or something, but we already saw a little of that on Three's Company with the way they were with the trio sometimes. :lol:
