Three's Company Controversy - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Ohthehorrornet · 06-04-2003, 02:39 AM

This quesion was probably answered before or everyone knows the answer. But, I see on here all the time about how everyone gets excited when "Paradise Lost" plays.
Why isn't this episode played? Is there something controversial about it? I've seen the episode and it seems like an ordinary Three's Company episode.
Thanks,
Tim

Apparently, Nick-at-Nite for a very long time did not want to air the episode because Larry and RF get drunk in it. *shrug* To me that's a very stupid reason not to air it, but that's N@N for you.

I honestly don't think that makes sense that they wouldn't air it before cause they got drunk, cause, hello take a look at "A Night Not to Remember"...I seriously think the guy who runs Nick @ Nite is on something lol.

what they sed b4, because of the drinking thing....

but i mean, thats a stupid reason, i agree with *ATVPeople* because i mean, Cheers is taken place in a bar with everyone drinking... and in this, nothing THAT bad is goin on ....

Yeah and the other episode that N@N will never ever air is Going to Pot. I'm glad i have it from TNN.

Unwanted Angel · 06-04-2003, 07:16 PM

Ok I can understand why they won't show The Charming Stranger. But if they can show Days Of Beers And Weeds" Then why can't they show Going to Pot or Paradise Lost? DOBAW is a much worse episode then GTP. They use the words getting Stoned and Joints. N@N is so stupid and i hate them!

N@N aired Days of Beers and Weeds. I have it on tape.

Thanks for clearing that up for me

...but I now have another question, What is wrong with "The Charming Stranger"?

That's the episode that caused a lot of controversy because Jack's private parts falls out of his boxers. I taped that episode from TNN and they had a black bar that prevented viewers from seeing that scene. N@N just refused to air it.

Ohthehorrornet · 06-04-2003, 07:49 PM

Oooooh. Now I remember.
Yeah, I hate Nick @Nite now.
They are going to add Full House, Fresh Prince, and Roseanne.
Those shows aren't classic televison. They're just your average sitcom.
Three's Company, All in the Family, Cheers, etc are really the classic shows.
As opposed to Nick @Nite's usual five hours of Cosby, they should put on more Three's Company and All in the Family.

Full House really fits on N@N because it puts the F in Family Comedy and THree's Company puts the A in Adult Comedy which is why it should go to TBS

I know they aired Days of beers and weeds. I said if they CAN air DOBAW then why CANT they air Going to pot? DOBAW is a much worse episode then GTP is!

You never seen Going to Pot? I think GTP s worse because it deals with a Drug Bust. IN DOBAW, the Trio just stumpled into some marijuana

Well said, SOLOMON.
