In the "Diamond Jack" episode when Jack, Janet, and Terri were in his bedroom tying the bedsheets together. Jack sent Terri out to talk to the crooks for about 5 minutes. At 18:53 the door to the girls' bedroom is half-opened, if you look inside at 18:53, the beds are gone and the wall that separated the two bedrooms is gone as well. You can see Jack and Janet continue tying the bedsheets. From a technical point of view, the camera had to be positioned inside the girls' bedroom in order to film what was happening inside Jack's bedroom.

Also, noticed from season 1 to season 8, that there never was a time when the two bedrooms were shown simultaneously in the same episode. I am referring to the camera actually following them into their actual bedrooms. If the inside of the girls' bedroom is shown then Jack would just run in and out of his bedroom only, and vice versa if the inside of Jack's bedroom is shown, then Janet or Chrissy, Terri, and Cindy would just run in and out of their bedroom as well.

Not necessarily. We have the expected layout of the apartment in our mind but, physically, the rooms can be anywhere in the studio. For example, we can see Janet walk into her bedroom while the camera in showing the living room, they cut, Joyce walks 100 feet to the set of Janet's bedroom and they film her walking again into that set. Same thing can be with Jack's bedroom which can always be 100 feet away from the living room. So, Janet's bedroom is indeed missing from this snapshot but it could be for a lot of reasons.

We often see the kitchen like 5 feet deep because the set of the kitchen is just not there.

Although this is a miniature set, it's pretty much an accurate depiction of the Three's Company Set. At 18:53, Janet and Terri's bedroom is completely gone. The wall behind the two beds is not there as well, which means that there must be a huge empty space in the girls' room for the Cameraman to position the camera to film the close-up shots of the trio in Jack's bedroom.

Says who? What's the source of this statement? Honestly, I doubt that they recreated an entire apartment in the studio. I tend to believe every room has its own set that they could temporarily "connect" to the living room if needed.

Studios have limited space. If, for example, they had to create a scene in the Regal Beagle, they might have to save space by removing the set of the kitchen meaning no scene could implicate the kitchen.

It would be neat if it was an actual apartment!!

Also of interest is that the bathroom set is never seen again in the last two seasons except for in the season 7 episode 'A Night Not To Remember' when Janet angrily throws Jack smashing the door.

Nice catch I never realized that. You just see them going in the bathroom not actually inside the bathroom

That is a good catch. When Jack's Bistro opened the Regal Beagle was not seen as much. Do you know the last scene of the Regal Beagle? I am guessing but was it "Hearing is Believing" when Janet eats french fries at the Beagle. We hear about them going to the Beagle in "The Charming Stranger" but we dont see it.

Its seen one time, my error. in the episode Hearing is believing. Its the only time and its early in that season which is why it feels like season 7 was the last season for the beagle
