Default Why did the TC movie make it seem like John and Joyce were a couple?-lol

When the producer was telling John Ritter about the new spinoff, why would John say "WHAT ABOUT JOYCE? and not"What about Joyce and Priscilla?
Why would it matter to John what Joyce felt about the direction the producers want to go in with his character? It's all LIES!!!!!

Right! I hate how they did that! Suzanne brought it all onto herself. She signed a deal with CBS while on an ABC show for crying out loud!!

Although I don't think they should've made John and Joyce as clingy to each other as they were, John was concerned about Joyce when they told him about the spin-off. He didn't want her or Priscilla to be left out in the cold. But you're right, he said what about Joyce and Priscilla.

That's why the movie was disappointing.

The movie shouldn't be taken seriously by anyone.

If it really did happen that way, maybe it's because he'd known Joyce the longest and was closer to her.

I would've loved if in the final episode Jack and Janet did get together, they could've discovered that something was there afterall. And they could've referred back to Mate for Each Other.

IMO, I don't think that john and Joyce were a couple, John was married to Nancy and Joyce was involved with someone else. I feel though, Susanne did bring it on all herslef. That's why to this day, I have no respect for her what so ever! I remember watching the other day (on tape) The E! True Hollywood Story On Three's Comany' and I remeber seeing them showing John and he said that the next time he ran into Susanne was at some kind of premirie for a play(this happend a long while after 'Three's Company' was cancelled) and he walked up to her and said,' Chrissy come home'. and he said that she said' what was it that we were fighting about back than'? And John had said,'forget about it'. But that was than.
Let's not forget that a while after when he died and they made the second(or maybe it was the third season of 'Three's company' that they asked Susanne if she'd say a few words about John, and I heard that it was siad that she wouldn't do it unless she was paid. What a greedy little witch!

I don't think the movie tried to show JJ as a couple...just as good friends. They had stuck together through out the whole show til the end. And even at the end they show they remained friends!!

If Joyce really asked the producers-"What happens to Janet? Then she was not as smart as I thought he was. I really don't want to believe that she asked a question that stupid-lol Because by her asking that question, she was making it seem like her and Jack played a TV couple and that the producers wanted the Jack character to get another girlfriend. Did Joyce forget that her and John characters were PLATONIC FRIENDS????-lol

The producer was right when he said she had a long career on Three's company and it was time for her to move on

It seems like all the other actors weren't to upset with the show ending like that. Joyce had to be in denial because at the mostTC only had maybe one more season left.
