Thoughts on this show?

I liked The Ropers better

I thought it was kind of stupid. Antena TV still runs it on Sat.

The only thing I liked about it was Mary Cadorette, besides her I didn't like it much. I wonder whatever happened to her after that. I don't remember seeing her in anything since then. But I'd heard she'd been on Broadway several years before that. So I assume she went back to appearing in Broadway shows and probably has never done much TV or movies since.

Ed.

Jack should have married Janet. I was never a fan of Vicky.

The perfect ending to Three's Company.

I remember watching this season of 84-85 feeling it was a weak spin off. I still liked it, but nowhere near Three's Company.


It wasn't a spinoff, it was a continuation of the original series under a different name like Archie Bunker's Place

I wonder if there were ever any plans to put Three's Acrowd on DVD?


The show been available on DVD for years

never saw it , but I've heard it's not that good.

It stunk but they show it on AntennaTV on Sat.

Yeah it was a very weak spinoff.

I actually liked it just as much as Three's Company, I guess being 8 years old at the time I just took it as a natural progression of Jack Tripper now living with a woman and seeing over Jack's Bistro.

Even characters like Mr. Bradford and EZ Taylor were great.

If anything it's The Roper's spin-off that sucked.

Only thing floating out there are fan made bootleg sets, the show hasn't had an official DVD release.

Richard Kline should have been on there from the beginning. Jack needed a confidante and a sidekick to deal with Mr. Bradford.

Vicki/Mary was pretty but very wooden. She got better as the show went on but wasn't the best casting they could have come up with.

I enjoyed the battling Bradfords though.

EZ was annoying. He should have been replaced with Felipe.

TVFactFan is an assh*le. Don't listen to him. Ever. He needs to go back to the asylum and take his meds :lol:

TVFactFan is not doing anything wrong, I don't think he's harrassing you. Please stop picking on him and move on. Just please ignore what he said.
If he's bothering you again, just ignore him

Mary Cadorette was awful, very stiff. Her character was a shrill stick-in-the-mud if I remember right.

Mary wasn't shrill - just stiff. Vicky and Jack were sweet, but boring. Agree that Richard Kline should have been on there from day 1, and EZ was a one-dimensional cartoon.

This show really had no reason to exist other than the fact that it could so it did. Three is Company had run its course by season 8, and the rating decline in the final season attested to that fact. TVFactFan was correct this was not a spinoff but just a continuation of the original series, two girls that Jack lived with but was not involved with were replaced by one girl who he was involved with. One meddlesome landlord was replaced by one meddlesome would be father-in-law. Not a whole lot new creatively to give an audience reason to show up each week, and again the ratings attested to that fact.

I hated it, honestly. It wasn't funny at all and the dad from what I remember was way beyond annoying.

The whole show is flat, and the laughs are few and far between. Even the clapping from the studio audience, leading into the closing credits, is noticeably more subdued when compared to that of its parent series.

The spin-off caused a rift between John Ritter and Joyce DeWitt, according to Joyce in her Unauthorized Story (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-EZqUuYQrQ). In part because the producers asked John not to tell Joyce, and so he didn't tell her. Then she found out.

Did they not think she’d find out once it started airing?

Spin-off.

I’m glad that Mary Cadorette was able to bounce back after her brush with fame burned out.
