I've seen them before but they are fun to watch. I always wonder what it was like for the actresses that got cut. It would be almost like hitting the lottery but then losing the ticket. However the changes they made really made the show better. John Ritter was cast and he never changed although his name was David, not Jack. The first blonde did a bad job. But Susan Lainer did a pretty good job. But no doubt Sommers did it better. A little trivia is that the scene at the end where they are feeding seagulls from far away is actually Susan Lainer and not Suzanne Sommers. Its so far away they thought no one would notice.

Yeah these are included as a bonus on the DVD sets, it's very interesting that while some things look the same not all of it is quite meshing together and the laugh track is probably as grating as an episode of The Big Bang Theory.

Oh and the actress Valerie Curtain who plays Jenny is very unattractive, thank god they replaced her with Joyce DeWitt.

At least for Susan Lanier she not Susan Sommers got to appear on the closing credits. Something producers never bother changing the first 2 seasons.

She also got to appear on an episode of Welcome Back Kotter as the "new" student but then never seen again.
