I was just wondering why Joyce DeWitt always felt the need to wear nylons/hoisery while filming Three's Company. I read that it caused conflict between 3's Co producers and she never wanted to work showing her bare legs. Even when wearing short pants. Why?? She had cute legs. Was it a personal issue?? Hmmm!!

I think maybe it was because she's more, how do I say this, more pure about herself. Know what I mean. I just think she has her standards about how to be and about how to do things. That's just my opinion.

She must be very modest and that's why I'm sure she was very respected on the show. Like I'm sure she was strong about the opposite sex yoo. That's what woman need to do now-a-days!!

The reason she never showed her bare legs was because she thought they looked to boyish. She hated her legs and that was why she always wore the nylons.

I think she had very sexy, femmiem, legs. :grineyes: ;)

She had very nice legs!! She really beat herself up. She also said that she was very chubby when she started out on Three's Company and that she hated that too. She didn't look chubby to me. She was only a kid at the time!!

Chubby! :lol: Joyce has never been fat in her life! She has always had an incredibly sexy body. :D

When TC first started out Joyce was 29 years old.

She did look younger than she was. On Larry King Live she said that when she started Three's Company she was a short chubby black haired thing. I guess even though she was 28 or 29 she still felt like a kid!!

I saw the one commercial when she was wearing a tuxedo type outfit baring her legs!! It was on the TV Land retromercials and she looked cute. She had a black stick and looked like a rockette!! She was saying something about how fast she moves and that the legg's hoisery always moves with her or something like that. They might just show it again!!

If Joyce was self-conscious, she had no reason to be. Her body was outstanding. Very curvy and feminine as it should be, in my opinion.

I read on the IMDB that Joyce DeWitt refused to appear bare-legged, but was that always the case? Unless she was wearing some very transparent stockings, I think there were at least two episodes in which she was bare-legged:

#0218 Home Movies
Janet is bare-legged in a pink bikini.

#0608 Some of That Jazz
Janet appears bare-legged in a purple leotard.

And several other episodes she was wearing skin-tight stockings in a bathing suit or leotard that didn't really make any difference anyways as we could see her legs just the same.

She always wore stockings. They were just transparent but she never worked bare legged. Even when she wore a towel or a bikini or even her football jersey nightie.

Unless I find Joyce first!
If she comes to an autograph show, I think I'll ask if I can touch her legs. :D :grineyes:
(Well, at least one leg.)

I WILL let YOU know how soft her skin is when I meet her (whenever that is). I just hope she doesn't slap me or something. :blush:

I think that it was the thing in that era. Chrissy did it too, as did my Terri and Lana. It was rare to find a bare-legged woman in that era. In this day in age, all the women on t.v. and in the movies go bare-legged.

That's true. Cathy Bach (Daisy Duke from "The Dukes of Hazzard") said when she wore her short-shorts, she was also wearing panty hose.

There was a time when women cared about their appearance and didn't consider themselves fully dressed without pantyhose. Now, women think that painting their toenails makes varicose veins and cellulite invisible.

That's toooo funny, but oh so true. We figure if you're looking at our pretty toenails, you won't notice everything else wrong. LOL

I admit, I'm a sucker for pretty feet. They can distract you from other discrepencies the legs might have. LOL

Pantyhose or no pantyhose, Terri and Vicky share the award for the best looking legs!:crazy: I've hardly seen Janet's legs, because she is wearing jeans on almost every episode I've seen.

Actually, she was 27. Joyce DeWitt was born on April 23, 1949. Three's Company debuted on March 15, 1977. That would've made DeWitt 27.
