Would you want to see a Three's Company remake? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I personally don't think I would like to see Three's Company remade today. I think redoing it today would require a lot of updating in concept and premise, which would ruin it for me. But would any of you like to see new young actors play Jack, Janet, and Chrissy?

no thank you

In a word, no.

3 no's so far. That means Netflix should be announcing it any day now.

Ha!

Yeah the market seems to be remake-crazy right now. I hope they never do it. It might be nice to see a similar show get made today (that is straight farce), but a direct remake would no doubt be disappointing.

Only if it's set in space.

I'd be up for it only if Jason Ritter would play the Jack Tripper role. He's inherited his father's comedic timing. With cohabitation being such a non issue; the show would have no comedic premise. They were reaching a bit to have made it such a big deal in the late 70s/early 80s.
