Members,

I was born on June 13, 1972 in Texas, USA. I remember watching THREE'S COMPANY when it was in it's first run. I remember my family saying THREE'S COMPANY will be canceled. And guess what, THREE'S COMPANY is a 70s' and 80s' icon now. I still watch THREE'S COMPANY every so often.

I think what the producers did to Suzanne Sommer 'Chrissy Snow' was despicable they should have gave Sommer what she asked for she deserve it. Sommer was the best on THREE'S COMPANY.

i disagree and agreeto an extent...

Suzanne Somers asked for a massive salary increase plus 10% of the three's company profits

now, maybe a massive salary increase is understandable, but to also ask for 10% of the profits on top of that is absolutely ridiculous

on the other hand, if you know her history before three's company , then she has had a very unhappy life up to that point, so maybe the loads of money was trying to compensate for her unhappyness.

Yank,

That is totally disrespectful. You owe Suzanne Somers an apology.

Wait a second, Mindy, the other member might have a point. She was at the highlight of her career and she was driven obviously. I heard that John and Joyce wouldn't even appear in the same scenes with her afterwhile. I'm not sure if that's what is was, but who knows? I read her autobiography and it seemed like she went through a lot, it seemed to me that she got a little over ambitious. Hopefully she learned from the situation if it was all that. She was crushed when she learned that she was to be fired. In my opinion, she should've kept cool. I didn't hear anything about John and Joyce asking for 10% of the profits.

IMO. I think Suzanne got the worst end of the stick, but nowadays has it best. She redeemed her career on SHE'S THE SHERIFF and STEP BY STEPS. And while John Ritter is bearded and overweight and Joyce has definately seen better days, Suzanne is still a beautiful woman.

Suzanne Somers went through rough times. And she should have gotten anything she asked for. Because, she definitely deserved it. No other cast member deserved what she deserved. You owe Ms. Somers an apology.

it's been 20 years since Suzanne was kicked off TC. So I highly doubt that she is still offended at what people say.

I think they did a horrible thing to her, but nonetheless, she is still looking good while John Ritter (can someone buy him a razor please? LOL) and Joyce DeWitt are both shadows of their former selves.

Well, Suzanne wanted $12,000 more per episode then she was making. And the 10% thing?! Couldn't they have just said no? ^_^ Did they have to fire her?

Yeah, she still good looking, but now all she does is sell Buttmasters...

Suzanne Somers is not a has been. She made a comeback with noticeable shows such as Step by Step and Candid Camera. And why do I need to apologize to somebody I don't even know? I wasn't trying to be critical of her. My purpose is not to start any conflict at all. For being almost 53, Suzanne has still got her looks and is doing better than she was during the Three's Company. Besides, this was 20 years ago. I think Suzanne has overcome that part of her life.

You would look good too if you had all her money. We all know she's had plastic surgery done. All over! - Everybody has to grow old. Joyce Dewitt still looks like an attractive woman. John Ritter is a tad overweight but, he can lose weight if he wants to.
