One of those actors who just about everyone loved. Her demanding equal pay, paved the way for actors on other sitcoms to earn the same amount. RIP

Actually never really paid attention to her because I didn't find her attractive or like her personality. However. I was watching a blurb on the boob tube tonight about her. She got fired for asking for wage parity with John Ritter who was making 150 G's an episode to her 30 G's. Seems a reasonable ask after so many seasons. Don't know how much of the show she was carrying on her shoulders, but it does seem she was getting fucked. Thank God for Thigh master.
Yeah. I think I heard that story recently.

Admit it Philip, you thought Mrs. Roper was the hot one.
no, not really. But Mr. Furley kicks ass....

Cindy was also pretty hot. I love this show big time. I can't even explain.

Jack Tripper is God (Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy). John Ritter is the best physical comedian to ever live. I'm surprised Hollywood never capitalized on his talent the way they could've. I would have loved to have seen him in Mr. Bean/Pee-wee Herman style movies and shows.

With respect that title belongs to Buster Keaton...

The Chrissy character during the first season was pretty much a normal girl, IIRC, the writers dumbed her down in the second season, that's when the character really took off and she and Jack carried the show IMHO. Yeah, she did deserve a considerable raise.
Chrissy in season one was so unbelievably different than Chrissy in season five before she left the show.

Buster Keaton was quite the elaborate stunt man, especially in the 1920s when special effects were limited. He was definitely incredible.....


But the funniest of all time is definitely subjective because John Ritter had the opportunity to also supply dialogue with a team of great writers and a hit show.

I can understand the platitudes for Susanne Somers the person, but that show, Threes Company, was the epitome and apex of absolute trash, garbage TV.

The story of Lana coming onto the show was an interesting one. Larry referred to Jack to work as a male escort and that's when he met Lana as a client before she decided to move into the building and chase him. And then poof she was gone along with her whole storyline.

I feel like John Ritter's physical comedy really kicked in at the end of season four. I love how the producers discovered the talent and really showcased that after season four.

Some info about Lana’s disappearance, taken from the Wikipedia page of the actress who played her.

Definitely " derailing" the thread, but here's some Buster Keaton Canadian content.
