Default E True Hollywood Story about Three's Company

I just seen this on the weekend i was like ---> when i started to hear how Joyce n PB were treated the way they describe the producers of the show as sexist n that if Joyce had n idea she had to tell John b/c that's the only way the producers would consider it how come JR was making more money is not like he was this great actor when he joined the show n he wasn't even that funny (to me) to begin with. another prove of how sexist they were is so sad to here all this things n to look at show n realise that no1 was happy.

John was EXTREMELY funny, even before the show. Joyce & Suzanne & PB hadn't even been heard of until the show. John was already a name before the show. He was the star! Without John, there would be no Three's Company! I'm starting to think that you are not a John Ritter fan at all.

What is interesting about the E special is that the stories that Joyce DeWitt & Priscilla Barnes tell substantiate everything that Suzanne Somers said. Suzanne complained about the producers and how they mistreated her during her salary dispute and the public at large dubbed her a liar, but it seems she may have been telling the truth all along. Without even realizing it, Joyce & Priscilla lend credence and support to what Suzanne had been saying all along...

I agree that Joyce and Priscilla were treated unfairly. However, John very muched deserved to be making more money than the others because it was HIS show. He was the main actor, the main character, and he was the only one of the trio that was kept through all three pilots. Like I said in my previous post, without him, there would be no "Three's Company". There is no doubt as to why he was earning more money.

I am so sorry to say this but w/out the rest of the cast John didn't survived either!!! TAC failed when they decided to give John his own show!!! Everyone played a mayor part in the show!!! They learned that the hard way!!

Yes, that's very true. I was just saying that IMO, John was the main actor. You're right, without the rest of the cast, "Three's Company" wouldn't of been "Three's Company". Like you said, everyone played their own part and contributed to the shows greatness.
