If anyone has read the Three's Company book, 'Come And Knock On Our Door' , you'll notice a passage sort of in the beginnig about Janet's problems with Chrissy. In the next paragraph, it says, and I quote...

"Robert Sklar, author of Prime-Time America: life On And Behind the Television Screen, dared to find hidden meaning in a less obvious plot. He said the third-season episode The Fast - on the surface a battle of the sexes show in which referee Janet pits Jack's willpower to avoid women against Chrissy's willpower to avoid food- was actually about Janet's secret fantasies. " I think the real story of that episode is Janet's longing to be romanticaly invovled with Jack and to be as slim and pretty as Chrissy," Sklar wrote. She's out to frustrate their desires because she's frustrated i her own. The abstract argumment that she ivents is simply an sublimation for her own more fundamental argument with her two roommates. How can Jack be interested in other women and not in her? How can Chriisy eat so much and still keep her enviable figure?" Was Janet Wood ( pretty and petite, but earth motherly hidden) really the second coming of the once-too-often-overlooked Jan Brady, eager to ditch life in suburbia to become a hot child in the city??"

Okay...now that I wrote all that....WHAT???????????????????????? What's THAT about? I didn't think TC went that deep!!! lol!

Tell me what you think...

I think that people are going to deep into the show! TC, like Joyce said in the movie, the actors just wanted the audience and viewers to enjoy the show, that is all! And I don't think that the writers of the show, ever went into it that deep either! They just wanted people to have a good time watching it! :D

I totally agree!! I mean, it's just a fun show for crying out loud, not a soap opera!! Let's focus on the humor and fun!!

AHAHA what the heck? :lol:

I just finish reading the TC book! And it was really really good and intersting! (I had NEVER read a book so fast) Anyways, when I read that part I thought that was very dumb, b/c I thought that Janet had a really nice body, IMO better then Chrissy. And in the later seasons Janet says she eats when she is nervous, and with so many things going on around that apartment she probbly ate like all the time! And during that episode, Janet was trying to tell Jack about the girl that came to see him, if she would of felt jealous, she would of not said anything!:wave:
