Watching Three's a Crowd right now and Vicky was EXTREMELY BORING!!!!! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TVFactFan · 03-25-2003, 12:06 AM

I watched a couple of three's a crowd episodes and i'm able to see that Vicki was the reason the show didn't take off. She was completely different from Chrissy, Janet, Terri, and Cindy. The Vicki character seemed more quiet and shy. I think if the chose the right girl to play Jack's girlfriend, it would have lasted until the 90's. Mr Braford was a great supporting character. But that Vicki had No acting skills at all.

Are you crazy? Vicky was a goddess! I just wish she had Jack's baby. That way, she would be a milf! There were 2 reasons this show went belly up so soon.

1) It had to live in the shadow of "Three's Company". The writers gave Jack a steady girlfriend, his own diner, and a new arch nemesis (Vicky's father.) They gave him a more promising future, but all the viewers wanted was the past.

2) EZ Taylor had to GO!!!

Vicky was pretty but she couldn't act. I liked Mr. Bradford and E.Z.

I watch this show once for like 2 mins. and I know this is the common statement, but Janet should of been Jack's girl friend at the end of the show, and in the spin-off. But even if they didn't do the spin off Jack and Janet should of been together! Vicky was not funny at all to me!

Yes your right she couldnt act to save her life. its amazing that suzanne sommers (aka chrissy snow 3s company) originally wanted that part as vicky, but didnt get it because the network didnt want to open up the suzanne sommers wound that i think was made not by suzanne herself but by her hubby allan hamil.

I don't know what made suzanne soers think she would be offered the part to play Jack's girlfriend when she was already kicked off three's company. Look like she was dumb in real life.

Suzanne Somers is not dumb for one thing. Second, her husband tried to get the network to cast her as Jack's girlfriend. The only thing Suzanne did wrong was let her husband dictate what HE thought her career ought to be. I am glad she finally stood up for herself.

wouldnt that have been great to see tho.suzanne as vickie, i bet the show would have survived longer with suzanne in it, as chrissy, WOW i kinda wonder if john and suznne would have fell for eachother, i know one thing he would not have told suznne to ask for things that were totally out of line. john ritter that is.

Suzanne could not play Vicky because she was already well known as CHRISSY!!

Mary was pretty but was miscast and acted poorly as Jack's live-in girlfriend and Suzanne as somebody mentioned wouldn't be right for his live-in as well because she is too much known as Crissy!!

EricIdlefan · 02-11-2004, 10:29 PM

EZ was annoying and had no brains!!

Are YOU crazy??? Yes, Vicky was pretty, but she was a miscast as Jack's love interest. Her character was written as too uptight and boring, and her "chemistry" with Ritter seemed very forced. I don't think it's that Cadorette couldn't act, it's that she was a bad comedic pairing with Ritter. And... my god, if anything serves as a shark-jumper for a show, it's a BABY. What worse way to ruin a fictional character's life? Or real one for that matter? LOL! Adding a baby would've made an already sluggish show that much more so. But, not all is lost for you. Odds are very good the actress has already had kids by now, so you have your milf...out there somewhere lol.

Adding a baby to that show would have really made it unwatchable.
