'Three's a Crowd' was the only other one.

The Three's Company show and their spin-offs are based on the British show, Man About the House. The Ropers is based on the British spin-off, George and Mildred and Three's A Crowd is based on the British spin-off, Robin's Nest. I wish Nick-at-Nite or TV Land would air the Ropers or Three's a Crowd. I heard they were supposed to be on around Winter 2001, but I haven't seen them on yet.

I e-mailed TV Land, and they gave me the same response that everyone else got, that they don't have exclusive rights to the 3's company spin-offs. I think that they have to last more then 2 seasons to be shown in reruns though.

You're right, they did last two seasons, even though the seasons weren't too long. I can't believe Fox Family channel is showing stupid reruns of Two of a Kind, with the annoying Olsen twins. That show lasted one season and its on 3 times a day.

Oh, and my point was that if Fox Family can show dumb reruns of Two of a Kind, then TV Land or Nick at Nite can show the Ropers and Three's a Crowd. The Ropers lasted longer than Two of a Kind.
