The premise of the 1977 sitcom "Three's Company" -- adapted from the 1973 British series "Man About the House" -- would likely never fly in 2024. Roommates Janet (Joyce DeWitt) and Chrissy (Suzanne Somers) require a third roommate to pay rent in their expensive Santa Monica apartment. They stumble across Jack Tripper (John Ritter), an aspiring culinary student whom they get along with. It so happens, though, that the building's landlord, Mr. Roper (Normal Fell), is ultra-conservative and refuses to let unmarried men and women share his apartments. To get around this contrived contingency, Janet and Chrissy tell Mr. Roper that Jack is gay. This satisfies the landlord but opens Jack up to homophobic jibes.
Fell eventually left the series and was replaced by the high-strung Mr. Furley, played by Don Knotts. Mr. Furley, it seems, required the charade to continue. Somers also left the show in its last two seasons and was...

Actor Suzanne Somers had a highly publicized feud with her Three’s Company castmates. But upon reflecting on their grudge, Somers felt that her business mind got in the way of her professional relationships.

Somers’ exit from Three’s Company wasn’t an amicable one. The Three’s Company star left the series after five seasons because of a pay dispute. This resulted in a rift between Somers and the Three’s Company cast that took many years to repair.
But according to the late Somers, there was some tension between herself and the Three’s Company cast before her departure. In an interview shared by Foundation Interviews, Somers confided that she let her co-stars immediately know what her career goals were. Whereas her castmates had a natural passion for acting,...

Three’s Company star Suzanne Somers made no secret of her dreams for a new version of the classic sitcom that made her a TV icon. The actor, who died on Oct. 15 at age 76, had floated an idea for a new show that would incorporate a hologram version of her late co-star John Ritter and also gave the thumbs up to the idea of Jennifer Aniston playing the Chrissy Snow character. But despite the talk, there are no plans (that we know of) to make a Three’s Company reboot a reality.

Particularly in the age of streaming, it's hard to imagine another show living a life like the one that "Three's Company" did throughout the late '70s and early '80s. Spanning eight seasons and more than 170 episodes, it's the kind of run that relatively few scripted TV shows can ever claim, but especially now. It also made absolute stars of its cast, perhaps most notably Suzanne Somers, who recently passed away at the age of 76. She played the lovable Chrissy Snow alongside John Ritter's Jack Tripper and Joyce DeWitt's Janet Wood. But it turns out that Somers' life-changing casting happened essentially by accident.
Former President of ABC Entertainment Fred Silverman, speaking in an archival interview shared by the FoundationINTERVIEWS YouTube channel, discussed his lengthy career in television. When the subject of "Three's Company" came up, the executive explained that he "was very involved in the casting of Suzanne Somers.

One fictional apartment in Santa Monica, California is a little less funny now. Suzanne Somers passed away at the age of 76 on October 15, 2023. She was one of the main cast members in the 1970s/80s series "Three's Company" alongside John Ritter and Joyce DeWitt, playing the joyful and (as much as I hate this word) ditzy Christmas "Chrissy" Snow. As someone who watched the show as a very tiny person, I've seen most of the episodes. What I didn't know was that Somers was also playing another character, hiding in plain sight the whole time.
"Three's Company" was based on the British show "Man About the House," and ran on ABC from 1977-1984, with Somers playing her role in seasons 1-5, leaving after contract negotiations failed. The show centered around two women, Chrissy Snow and Janet Wood (DeWitt), who lose their roommate and need someone to take over her portion of the rent.

Name a classic show and, for all its success, you're likely to find a mess of behind-the-scenes drama between the network and its star actor(s). The acclaimed hit series "Three's Company" was no different, although the reason for why late star Suzanne Somers was ultimately fired from the production more than halfway through the show's acclaimed run is certain to raise eyebrows. In fact, it remains every bit as insidious now as it was at the time.
Somers sadly passed away this week at the age of 76, leaving behind a wide-ranging legacy that largely stems from giving one of television's most famous performances. As the "dumb blonde" Chrissy Snow, Somers made up the all-important third leg of the trio that also included co-stars John Ritter as Jack Tripper and Joyce DeWitt as Janet Wood. Together, the three formed the backbone for "Three's Company" and its premise of three singles...

Hollywood is mourning Suzanne Somers, star of sitcoms “Three’s Company” and “Step by Step,” who died Sunday after a long battle with breast cancer. The actor would have celebrated her 77th birthday on Monday, Oct. 16.
Somers was known for her roles as bubbly “dumb blonde” Chrissy Snow in “Three’s Company” and single mom Carol Foster Lambert in “Step by Step.” Somers left “Three’s Company” in 1980 when her request that she be paid the same as her male co-star, John Ritter, was denied. After the end of “Step by Step” in 1998, Somers transitioned to a career in health and beauty, becoming the national spokeswoman for exercise device the ThighMaster. Over time, she built a fitness empire from TV infomercials and an expansion into e-commerce. She also made an appearance in 2015 on Season 20 of “Dancing with the Stars.”
Fran Drescher, Kathy Griffin and Barry Manilow are among those who have paid tribute to Somers.

Suzanne Somers’ death on Oct. 15 ensures a Three’s Company reboot would be impossible. It would have been unlikely before the starlet’s death, but Somers wasn’t against the idea. Now, though, there is just a single member of the original main cast that is still alive. That makes us immeasurably sad.
Joyce DeWitt is the only remaining original ‘Three’s Company’ cast member still living
Joyce DeWitt, who played Janet Wood on Three’s Company, is the last living original cast member. DeWitt appeared in 171 episodes of the iconic series, working with both Ritter and Somers as a main cast member from the pilot onward.

Suzanne Sommers, star of the classic ABC sitcom Three’s Company, has died. She was 76 years old. Somers died on Sunday at home in Palm Springs, California, passing away one day shy of her 77th birthday, according to The New York Times. “Suzanne Somers passed away peacefully at home in the early morning hours of October 15. She survived an aggressive form of breast cancer for over 23 years,” publicist R. Couri Hay said in a statement to Page Six. Everett Collection “Suzanne was surrounded by her loving husband, Alan [Hamel], her son, Bruce [Somers Jr.], and her immediate family,” the statement continued. “Her family was gathered to celebrate her 77th birthday on October 16. Instead, they will celebrate her extraordinary life, and want to thank her millions of fans and followers who loved her dearly.” On Three’s Company — which aired from 1977 to 1984 — Somers starred in the first five seasons as Chrissy Snow (pictured above), who shares...

A Three’s Company reboot hasn’t happened yet. But that doesn’t mean ideas haven’t been discussed. Suzanne Somers, who played Chrissy Snow on the classic TV show and died on Oct. 15, 2023, once shared her idea for a Three’s Company reboot. It involved her deceased co-star, John Ritter (Jack Tripper), in hologram form, and his son, Jason Ritter.
Somers wanted Chrissy and Jack to be married with a child in a ‘Three’s Company’ reboot
In an April 2022 episode of the Behind the Velvet Rope podcast, Somers shared her idea behind a Three’s Company reboot, explaining how it could continue without Ritter, who died in 2003. Her suggestion: a holographic version of the late actor. (More on that ahead.)
“I had suggested a show where you would imagine that Chrissy Snow and Jack Tripper eventually got married and had a child,” Somers said.

Los Angeles, Nov. 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Classic sitcom fans will be delighted to find Three’s Company star Joyce DeWitt in two new films streaming this holiday season. The 73-year-old mid-westerner who played Janet Wood for eight seasons on the ABC hit series affects a Southern accent in both a delightful holiday musical called “A Scattered, Smothered & Covered Christmas” and a feel-good romcom called “Ask Me to Dance.”
Kay Gobbell and Joyce DeWitt in “A Scattered, Smothered & Covered Christmas” one of two currently-streaming holiday films starring DeWitt.

Becoming a part of the popular conversation in the mid-1970s was the phrase "Jiggle Television," which was designed by NBC to be an insult to ABC's programming of the time. Instead, it became a short-hand, if you will, to describe shows like Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman, the ladies of Charlie's Angels, and, of course, Three's Company. The latter focuses on Chrissy Snow (Suzanne Somers), Janet Wood (Joyce DeWitt), and Jack Tripper (John Ritter), living together platonically and pretending that Jack is gay to keep their landlords, the Ropers (Norman Fell and Audra Lindley), at bay. The show would turn out to be a combination of slapstick humor and sexual innuendo usually arising from misunderstanding — and it was a huge hit. "If you look back to '70s sitcoms," explains Chris Mann, author of 1998's Come and Knock on Our Door: A Hers and Hers and His Guide...

New Line Cinema is in negotiations to acquire the rights to classic sitcom Three's Company and has hired screenwriters Abby Kohn and Marc Silverstein (He's Just Not That Into You) to author the script for a film adaptation. Robert Cort (Cocktail, Runaway Bride) will produce the project, which will be set in the 1970s, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Three's Company, which aired from 1977 to 1984 on ABC, focused on an unlikely trio of Santa Monica roommates: two single women and a man pretending to be gay in order to circumvent the era's narrower housing norms.

Three’s Company had already left the airwaves when I was born in 1985. However, I was still able to fall in love with the hijinks of Jack Tripper, the dumb blonde moments of Chrissy Snow, and the good old reliability of Janet Wood in the form of reruns. The show can still be watched today on TV Land. As a result, even younger fans than myself are able to watch the classic misunderstandings of this comedy. The sitcom experienced many different cast changes over its eight year run. Some of these were amicable (The Ropers), while others were pegged with controversy (Chrissy Snow). Here is a look at all the cast changes that took place on one of the most popular shows from the 1970’s and 1980’s. Like with most popular television series, a spin-off of Three’s Company saw the departure of two of the main characters on the show.

Three’s Company was the ‘Friends’ of its day; a sit-com about three twenty-somethings sharing an apartment in Santa Monica California going through the ups and downs of life for the singles set of the late 70s. The American version of the UK show ‘Man About the House’, Tc was considered a groundbreaking show. Hard to believe just over 30 years ago men and women living under one roof as platonic friends was not only a novel idea for television, but a shocking and controversial premise. Juvenile jokes, double-entendres, and ridiculous plot-lines were all part of the fun, but Tc was also a true reflection of the shifting morals and values of young America arriving in the last days of disco and jiggle TV.
Several pilots were made with different actors before John Ritter, Joyce Dewitt and Suzanne Somers were selected to play the roommates we came to know and love.

Meyer had a knack, and a passion, for photographing gorgeous, busty women and felt that the gals in the nudist camp movies that were popular in the ’50s were far too plain-looking for his tastes. In 1959, Meyer scraped together $24,000 and made The Immoral Mr. Teas, a quaint, colorful, and cartoonish movie about a nerdy fellow whose life is constantly interrupted by beautiful large-breasted women in various stages of undress.

What a delightfully freakish treat I received when I started watching this early 1970s gritty flick! When I first turned this on, I was expecting utter rubbish but to my surprise it was nice. It has a similar gritty nature to same year release “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.” Ironically, this movie was released months before the latter film as it also involves a backwoods family. This movie has alternate titles in record such as “The “Folks at Red Wolf Inn” and “Terror House.” It’s not widely known and has very limited releases. If you happen to discover an old copy, you shall be in a rare breed of owning a release!
The plot involves spring breaker Regina (Linda Gillen), who receives a letter informing her that she won a getaway leisurely vacation at a small by-the-ocean hotel resort. She is immediately rushed there quickly...

Veteran actress Joyce Dewitt has been hit with two charges of driving under the influence (DUI) following her arrest in her native California earlier this year.
The 60 year old, best known for her role as Janet Wood on hit 1980s TV show Three's Company, was arrested in El Segundo on America's Independence Day after driving past a traffic barricade.
The actress was taken into police custody after reportedly failing field sobriety tests and was later released on $5,000 (£3,330) bail.
A complaint filed on Tuesday by the Los Angeles County District Attorney shows she had been driving with a blood alcohol level of .15 - twice the state's legal limit.
She has been charged with one count of driving under the influence and one count of driving while having a blood alcohol content (Bac) of .08 or higher, reports TMZ.com.

It’s Thursday, so it’s time for another Dream Cast, in which we take a classic movie or TV show -- perferrably something with Xer appeal that we can either trash or have fun with -- and recast a hypothetical (or sometimes not so hypothetical) remake with actors working today. This week: Three’s Company, the 1977-84 ABC sitcom about a straight man who pretends to be gay so he can share a Santa Monica apartment with two straight women. (If you have a suggestion for a classic TV show or movie we could play Dream Cast with, feel free to email me.) I remember being a small, stupid, uncritical child and loving this show. I’m not sure whether I understood, at the time, much of what passed for humor here. Did I know what it meant when people said a man was gay, or why mistaken sexual...
