Product: Three's Company: Season One (1977)
Rating: 5.0
A quick and fun release at a great price
Anchor Bay is doing us a solid in making the short season one (it was a spring replacent show in 1977) into a quick and inexpensive single disc release out well before the end of 2003. I had a chance to catch part of the recent "Three's Company" marathon in which 2 of the 6 episodes from this season were aired -- "Pilot" and "Roper's Niece" -- both of which had my sides splitting. The pilot episode could not have been executed any better and it appears as if this was one of only a handful of TV series in the annals of history that began a long run already in full stride. And in six episodes nonetheless!I highly recommend this and future season releases, beginning in 2004 -- which will contain bonus materials! John Ritter may be gone, but thanks to his large body of work and my DVD player, I won't be forgetting him.(For those thinking Anchor Bay is simply out to make a buck off the passing of TV legend John Ritter, take notice: the DVD rights to "Three's Company" were purchased several months before his death and he had even been scheduled to work with Anchor Bay on supplemental material for the DVD releases)
