Just recently, for the first time in years, I began rewatching old episodes of that old sitcom from the late seventies and early eighties, Three's Company. When I was growing up in the eighties and early nineties, reruns of this show aired all of the time. I must have seen every single episode at least five or six times each.
It was a bit of a silly show. By now, everyone knows that it seemed that every single episode was about some kind of misunderstanding. Usually, it was of a sexual nature, but not always.
At the time, this show was regarded as pretty hip, bold and even controversial. The idea of one man living with two women was evidently racy for the times. Of course, the running joke was that the landlord (Mr. Roper at first, Mr. Furley in later episodes) thought that Jack (John Ritter) was gay, and that both Jack and the girls would have to play along and convince Mr. Roper and Mr. Furley of the same.
There were some very funny moments in the show, and some episodes really were quite funny. I remember laughing when younger, and even getting a kick out of it when watching the show in more recent times. More often, though, I just got a good feeling somehow, when watching it. Especially the later episodes, with Don Knotts playing Mr. Furley.
In any case, just thought that this video would be worth sharing here.
Enjoy!
