What is the worst Three's Company episode you have ever seen?

[Precious]

I know Three's Company is a good show, but there were a few episodes that sucked. Post your answers here.

I think it would have 2 be the one where Janet thinks Jack's girlfriend is a hooker and shes really a sex theripsit. It's so stupid!

------------------
Jack: "This is a job for the man of the house."
Janet: "I did not kiss Larry!"
Chrissy: "Snort snort."
Mr. Roper: "Not tonight Helen, I got a headache."
Mrs. Roper: "Not tonight. That would be a good title for my autobiagraphy."
Mr. Furley: "Once a tippytoes, always a tippytoes."
Cindy: "I guess I messed things up, huh?"
Terri: "Janet? Shut up and get married."

I think the worst episodes were Will the Real Jack Tripper Come Forward. I thought Larry was mean to get a girl pregnant and then tell her his name is Jack. I couldn't believe Jack forgave him. I also hated Helen's Job. Some scenes in this episode were funny but I found most of the episode insulting. I thought Stanley was being a sexist pig when he told Helen that she shouldn't get a job and she should stay home to cook, clean, and keep house for her husband like a housewife. Oh Please, women can do anything today.

I highly agree about those two episodes not being that good and one I did'nt like was where this was a Terri episode and Janet had this lady dance teacher and she wanted to fire Janet if Jack did'nt go out with her and then Janet forgives her. Why when they teacher was sneaking around with Jack and planning to fire Janet?

Also the episode where Janet is afraid of a mouse in her bedroom and Larry finally kills it I did'nt like that one too well either it was'nt very funny.

I didn't like the last 2 episodes, mainly because I wanted Jack and Janet to get married. I didn't really like Vicki, even though Three's A Crowd was a cute little show.

Any episode that takes place at Jack's Bistro has a high likelyhood of being a real dog.

"Chrissy and the Guru", "Jack's Bad Boy", "Like Father, Like Son", "Old Folks At Home", "Jack's Other Mother" , "Lee Ain't Heavy , He's My Brother", "Jack's Uncle", " The Crush", Secret Admirer". I'd add the eppy " Look What I Found" but I love the scene between Larry and the little girl, it saves the eppy.

Out of 172 episodes, most were great and some were OK.

I think the only bad episodes were "Secret Admirer", "Strangers in the Night", and "Like Father, Like Son".

"Like Father, Like Son" is my least favorite episode.

[DORVID]

Every single episode is great.

As soon as I saw this, I couldn't type fast enough, the series finale, "Friends and Lovers". It's little more than a glorified backdoor pilot for the ill-fated Three's a Crowd spin-off. I quite frankly, don't care about Jack's romance with that drab flight attendant chick that he just met and her irritating, helicopter parent of a father. I as it was, could barely care about Janet's wedding to an equally drab guy for whom she also just met.

The whole thing just felt like the network and producers were in a rush to get Three's Company wrapped up and off the air so that they could get this new vehicle for John Ritter up and running. And they did it with pretty much little regard for the other characters (Janet, Terri, Larry, and Mr. Furley) much less the audience, who stuck by the show for the past eight years.

Look What I Found
Hair Today Gone Tomorrow
A Night Not To Remember
Borrowing Trouble
Janet Wigs Out

The thing I hate is when they take a character on the show and transform them into something we have never seen before just for laughs. Janet turns into a slut because she owns a blonde wig? Terri falls in love with Jack because of a FAKE mustache. Jack abandons Janet and turns into a mean drunk breaking her grandmother's vase.
You know you are out of gas when writers have to almost develop new characters but use the same actors.
Also since when was Jack too proud to ask for money? How many episodes was he borrowing money or going to a bank for money, etc? Janet and Terri have to develop a radio contest to give Jack money that he did not even need? Stupid!

Any episode that featured Chrissy's father the reverend guest starring were never my favorites.

But the real stinker is from season 7 "Bob & Carol and Larry & Terri", an episode that had the usual misunderstanding typical for the series but having to shoehorn two random nobody neighbors that happen to live in the same apartment complex are never mentioned again.

[cloggedmind]

Since this ancient thread got resurrected, I'll say the baby crying episode. Well, that is, any sitcom that has a baby crying supposedly for comic effect.

Two runners up include the I Dream of Jeannie baby crying episode, and the Amen show with the girl who wouldn't stop screaming repeatedly until she got her way.

Those are instant "skip 'em" episodes.

Yeah that episode was dumb. The writers grasping for straws trying to develop a new misunderstanding. In the later seasons they would introduce characters that we never saw before as "great friends" as if we saw them before. The couple that comes over to meet Janet and Jack that got introduced by computer dating is one example. Its almost like they were introducing a spin off or something. Golden Girls fans hate the empty nest episode because the neighbor we never saw or met before walks into the house and the girls talk to her like she's been introduced before and is a staple in their life. Its ok to introduce new characters but when you build an entire episode around people we dont know is weird.
