They guest starred in Season 7 and Raven joined in Season 6. And supposedly Bill Cosby hated Three’s Company so it’s interesting he let John on his show.

I always thought that was 1987 when guest starred. Damm you right that was 1991

It was still weird to have her discussing three's company

I'd rather see Tyler Ritter, Joyce DeWitt, Katey Sagal and lesser known actors who worked with him in the special over Raven there.

Oh, I believe you. I just CANNOT believe how RACE obsessed Hollywood has become!!

So I take it they never made the Henry Winkler episode of 8SR?

Kaley Cuoco also worked with him on "8 Simple Rules," but she gets too emotional anytime his name is mentioned.

I'm pretty sure Raven, and even Kaley, haven't watched any episodes of Three's Company, with exception of a few clips.

At least Kaley worked with him, and had experiences from 8SR. But ABC had too much of her talking, which is like glorifying her or her experience.

It also seemed like ABC just did a get one person, the most successful one, from each area.

One remaining cast member of 8SR and Three's Company (Kaley and Suzanne), and had no interest getting Amy Davidson/Martin Spanjers/etc and likely Joyce DeWitt from Three's Company.

And children - ABC got Jason Ritter, but didn't feel the need to get the other Ritter son who looks a lot like John and who starred in the CBS sitcom, The McCarthy's. But he didn't turn out successful, so no need to interview him. Instead, get Raven

As much as John was funny on Three's company does he really deserve the special? Three's Company for it's time was big but it hasn't aged well. The show was dumb, sexist, homophobic but popular. After that his career was not that memorable.

Sinead O'Conner: What do you know about suffering? Your whole life is frivolous and petty. You spend your whole day worried about whether one of your tenants is gay.

Norman Fell: It's just a part I play...

Sinead O'Conner: A part you chose to play, sir.

When will the Robin Williams episode of Superstar air? I had assumed it would be September 15 but there is some other special then. And the following week is the start of the new TV season.

It was the line about the show being homophobic that reminded me of that sketch.
