The Goofiest scene in the Three's Company Movie was when Suzanne's Husband told

[TVFactFan]

her to put the thigh master in between her legs and SQUEEZE-lol Then she is sitting there on the bed looking crazy with the thigh master between her legs while he is saying-"There you go baby"


"I see a Thigh Master in our Future"



LOL

[I Love John Ritter]

Yeah that was really dumb.

[PrettyinPink55]

I agree! That was just...weird lol.

[Janet Tripper]

I think the dumbest thing was when he went back to talk to the producers and got upset b/c they wouldn't take his idea seriously after all the mess they had caused!!!

its not taco bell its nasty DEL TACO lol. i think it is the guy in the del taco commetrials who plays don knotts. what a bad actor that guy is! he was nothing like don knotts. another stupid thing about the TC movie is that how come pricilla barnes never talked or anything??? such bad casting. oh yea was it ever released on dvd?

[comedyfreak]

I remember really, really hating all of Alan's Alpha Beta commercials. I thought he was an ass.

[AustinTripper]

Wasn't that a major leap in time between TC and the thighmaster? They tried to make them look pathetic with it, but suzanne somers became a millionaire many times over starting with the thighmaster...

[queenFrostine278]

What's amazing is that some of us were defending Suzanne to some degree. Not that we were condoning her behavior or her husband'd greed, but clearly the producers weren't saints either, and it was clear that both parties acted inappropriately. Look at how the producers later treated Joyce & Priscilla. Just terrible. Without even meaning to, Joyce & Priscilla actually lend credence to much of Suzanne's claims about the producers underhandedness.

Regardless, it seems Suzanne has learned very little from the experience. It was revealed that she was asked to take part in the DVD extras for Three's Company to give her a chance to talk about John Ritter in a tribute of sorts. She refused to do so without being paid mucho $$ for it. That's kind of sick.

Anne Wedgeworth, who played Lana Shields in Season 4, didn't have that great an experience with the show and her parting wasn't the sweetest behind-the-scenes, and yet she traveled half across the country to record her tribute to John and wasn't paid one cent for it. It cost her money to do the thing. Many others have done the same thing. That's class.

Suzanne, on the other hand, while claiming she's learned so much from her firing et al, wasn't willing to speak unless she was highly paid for it. That's totally her decision, mind you, but I still think it's kind of sick.

A few years ago, Suzanne had a cancer scare (John was still alive then). Had she not survived her bout with cancer, I highly doubt John would've demanded to be paid just to give a tribute to her. He even went on record saying that 'all that matters is that Suzanne get well'.

If the scene for thighmaster was to try to make Suzanne & Alan look foolish, they need not fret; their current actions/greed accomplish that task just fine...

When you say the Producers treated Joyce unfairly do you mean them not telling her about the Spinoff? Because They really didn't have to tell her anything

For the love of sanity, man, you sure love to argue. Are you going to defend the way the producers handled the spinoff? I swear you love to take the opposite view of any topic so you'll have something to post. Methinks you need a life man!

About the spinoff, yes, they should have told her, plain and simple. Were they obligated to? Not legally, but I think if one has principles, they should have. And she wasn't the only one in the dark about it. So was Priscilla Barnes, Richard Kline and Don Knotts. They even had John Ritter lie to her about it to satisfy their own agendas. That's cold. I don't care what spin you put on it, it's cold, plain and simple.

I was also referring to the many other times that the producers were mean to Joyce, as well as to the other many women on the show. As greedy a witch as Suzanne Somers was, the producers were just as out of line when dealing with her, just as they were to Jenilee Harrison, Priscilla Barnes (who remarked that the show was the 3 worst years of her life; that's pretty heavy!), Anne Wedgeworth, and Audra Lindley.

~Banishing the Ropers off to spin-off, knowing it was going to fail, is a little shady, no?
~Writing Richard Kline out of 2 Three's Company episodes simply for making a suggestion is a bit harsh, no?
~Promising Anne Wedgeworth more character development and then reducing her to 2 minutes a show is deceitful, no?
~Putting so much pressure on Jenilee Harrison to be the new Suzanne and then dropping her completely without so much as an offscreen mention is pretty callous, no?
~Lying about the show being spun off constitutes as a dishonest thing to do, no? And putting John Ritter into the middle of it is just as sleazy a thing to do, no? Both John & Joyce were estranged for quite some time due to that, and even though they did find their way back to being friends again, it did put a strain on their relationship.

Joyce wasn't looking for promises, she just wanted to be told the truth. In a world where dishonesty can be justified as a means of doing business doesn't absolve the liars of their dishonesty. It's still lying.

Whether Joyce is one's least favorite or biggest favorite, the fact is she helped carry the show when the going was tough and she deserved better than what she got. John Ritter wasn't the whole show, even though the producers did think that. In their minds the other actors were expendable and disposable and their actions reflected that. There's no other way to see it. They were cruel and abusive. Plain and simple.

I expect you to differ just to have something to post, since you seem to have way too much time on your hands dude. I suggest either getting a hobby or at least posting things that ACTUALLY MAKE SENSE!!!

Time will tell...
