Three's Company

No Nudity

Review

Come and knock on our door...Based on a British sitcom called Man of the House, the sitcom superhit Three's Company launched in 1977, and gave us a full seven years of misunderstanding manufactured laughs while inspiring some spinoffs. But we don't think things were ever the same after the headspinningly sexy Suzanne Somers left the show in 1980. The ABC show followed the hijinks of a trio of roommates living in Santa Monica, California, specifically in apartment 201, directly above landlord Mr. Roper's (Norman Fell) unit. See, Chrissy (Suzanne Somers) and Janet (Joyce DeWitt) lost their third roommate and can't afford the apartment without someone else helping with the rent. Student chef Jack (John Ritter) is willing to live with these blonde and brunette babes, because who wouldn't be, but the problem is Mr. Roper is kind of old school. He won't let an unmarried man live with women, so the trio come up with a scheme to trick Roper into thinking Jack's gay. It works, but it's a tough façade to maintain when you're surrounded by the constant, not so fantastical fantasy of doing some mating with your roommates in what would be the most amazing threesome known to man. In fact, Jack is crazily horny through the series, and speaks nearly exclusively in double entendres. Can't blame him, wed be jacking it all night if those seventies sex kittens were in the next room! As the ’70s gave way to the ’80s, Three's Company dropped Norm and Suzanne from its cast and added Don Knotts, Priscilla Barnes, and Jenilee Harrison, but it's humina-humina Somers the world remembers as the breakout knockout of the show. With all due respect to the very doable Miss DeWitt, the woman who had us watching Thighmaster infomercials with zero intention of ever buying one made this farce must see TV. No, she never got naked but the constant jiggling and bending over in booty shorts was super sensual to a teen boy watching the boob tube in the seventies. We'd pretend to be gay all day to land a living situation like Jack in Three's Company!
