I found TAC to be the most boring sitcom ever! I only watched every time it was on because of Jack Tripper. The writing was terrible in my opinion and the actress wasn't right for the part.

The Ropers was a riot, it was actually enjoyable. Three's A Crowd was horrible. Even with Richard Kline on the one you sent me, it still wasn't that good.

well I guess I am the first-lol. I just didn't like it. I saw two Three's A Crowd episode and they did nothing for me. I was laughing every second of the Ropers.

I would watch TAC just to see John Ritter, he's hilarious no matter who he's acting with. I also think the Ropers were funny, but not as funny as Jack. The Ropers kind of had that same running joke of she wants to and he doesn't, which got old.

Once their spinoff started, that was no longer the running joke.

I liked Three's A Crowd--it certainly was no Three's Company but it wasn't bad, IMO. I didn't care for Vicky, but I thought Jack was funny with Mr. Bradford. I like The Ropers, too. I would buy both if they were released to DVD.
