Hilarious
I was a late convert to Three's Company, but I got into it when my husband started recording episodes on our Tivo. This is a collection of the first six episodes and lays the groundwork for the series. The chemistry among the cast is readily apparent and John Ritter's physical comedy is genius! Janet and Chrissy find Jack passed out in their bathtub one morning after a going away party for their roommate. They need a roommate and Jack needs a place to stay, and bing bang boom, the premise of the show is born. But, this is the 1970's and a man living with two women is a bit scandalous. The Ropers, the landlords of the building, won't hear of it. So Janet tells the Ropers that Jack is gay. Even watching this show in the 21st century, it is evident how ahead of it's time it was. A gay man, two women living with a man and innuendos galore demonstrate just how ahead of its time the show was.
