I MET HER. I was an extra on her show Step By Step. I was told never to speak to the actors but when I saw her I thought, I don't care if they fire me, I'm going to say hello to Suzanne Somers. So I did and she could not have been kinder to someone. She asked me my name and spoke to me for a couple of minutes. I could hardly breath. Her husband called her and she had go, she said goodbye and good luck. I will never forget it.
Lucky you that would’ve been the light of the lights of my life so funny, so cool I was just telling my granddaughter as I’m listening to this interview she is somebody I could’ve been friends with she’s so down to earth so fun not affected I don’t believe at all by her popularity, and continued popularity
Awe thank you 🙏🏻 for your story I love ❤️ Suzanne
❤️
Suzanne is an example of a person who others tried to put in a box. Suzanne had a soul blueprint for her life. Her vision of her life was bigger than all around her and even bigger than even she knew initially. Those Three's Company producers tried to limit her, tried to "put her in place." She followed her soul's blueprint and blazed her trail. She outdid all of them and lived by her own rules. She did it magnificently! What a bright star!
Well said!!
Absolutely 💯
“The Worst is Over” such a powerful statement .
She is missed because she had a beautiful soul.
Exactly 💯 my therapist said the same to me..life's been ok...ever since... POWERFUL WORDS!!!

Suzanne Somers was absolutely AMAZING and Truly will be Missed but Remembered For All The Love She Truly Put into Everything B/c She Truly Did Care and Was an Incredible and Beautiful Lady! RIP Suzanne A Forever Shining Star!
Beautiful, smart strong Woman, love Suzanne Somers, Rest well.❤
❤I wanted Suzanne healthy and to live forever…..She is a National Treasure❤Will be missing her in many ways. ❤🙏‼️
As a kid I was glued to the screen on tuesday night. Threes company was my favorite. I wish I had her in my life. So many life lessons and wisdom she had.
Suzanne somers was an incredible and beautiful and smart woman. The world will miss her!!!!
I own two cookbooks and three books of hers . I cleared a shelf’s on my bookcase , I won’t yo own every book and know everything she has to say …. Naturally brilliant woman and so loved by one man .
Suzanne always had a pure heart I believe. Very dear dear woman.
I am so enjoying this. Thank you. Chrissy Snow was one of the best characters in sitcom history.
I am just getting to know her outside her TV character. She is soo inspiring! She is so loveable, so kind, so polite. It's refreshing to have her in my world through these videos.
I really enjoyed this podcast. Suzanne was an amazing person who will continue to inspire and inform us for years to come with her books and other contributions. I loved hearing about her special relationship with Alan, too. RIP. ❤😢❤
Beautiful job! Rest in Peace Suzanne 🙏
What a fabulous interview. What an amazing woman. I’ve always liked her. I now love her. What a loss that she has passed. She lived a terrific life. She made the most of all she had.
Suzanne is Brilliant and her wisdom and joyful spirit will live on forever
Very sweet n real person.
She is missed. I hope she is resting in God's light n love.
❤
Thank you for this wonderful interview with Suzanne so heartfelt ❤❤❤
Wow 🤩
I feel so small in wisdom and so large in gratitude 🙏🏻
Thanl you so much for sharing this fascinating interview with Suzanne. This is exactly what I needed to hear. Kudos to you for having the right skills in order that Suzanne could truly speak her truth. Ripe with wisdom. Painful learning curves for Suzanne indeed. Many of us can relate to this kind of manipulation yhat we've experienced in our lives. Especially in our youth. I truly believe that it was a blessing for Suzanne to be fired from 3's company...Even the title of the show itself is symbolic of the fact that the producer's clearly weren't happy with Alan being 'extra company' not only in Suzanne's life but in their lives and the plans they likely had for Suzanne. Suzanne bring a real 'light' was actually in a vulnerable position with that crowd. We have heard about so many women in Hollywood who ended up being so abused. I'm so thankful she got 'out' when she did. I have so much respect for both Suzanne and Alan and I love them both. Both excellent examples and role models for people of all ages who just don't feel to follow the expected narratives or contracts in this matrix. Truly gifted and inspiring. So proud of Suzanne and she absolutely deserves respect. Smart Lady 💚💜💚💌
A really wonderful
Interview - thank you for reposting it.
Rest in peace Suzanne 🙏♥️🙏
What a great answer! "I'm respected!"
WOW, this has got to be one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen/heard!! Much respect to both of you!! To be able to be so honest. Truly telling your perceptions about your life and the Decisions you have made with pride
🙏💜💕
❤️❤️❤️
Wow wish i could say that...that she says she's FABULOUS! She certainly was!
You are beautiful n smart n gone to soon . I know your family is gonna be lost with out you but in time it gets better a little.
I know it all Gods plan for us even though we try n hang on for our loved ones we just cant .
My heart is broken for your loved ones n myself, im a ten year survivor of breast cancer.I was diagnosed ten years ago today.R.I.P. Suzanne
Superb interview! Your dynamic, pace, way you're almost bouncing/feeding off each other etc...Amazing! NEVER knew that *Suzanne herself made that super classy suggestion to have her and Joyce appear at the 2003 Emmy for a John Ritter tribute but got rejected!! :(
What a great interview and her crying was so touching. I thought wow, she just realized what great things she has actually has done, and is truly proud of herself. And perhaps when this interview was done, her life’s mission really was completed and she just needed to stay just a little longer. I’m sure she is at peace. ❤😊. This interview has helped me alot and it is on my day of 11/11 @11:11pm. So I just finally just understood a full circle of mine.
Her family said she makes you feel like your the only one in the room. Feel for Al he has to be devastated
I love ❤️ Suzanne Somers. I really cried 😢I grew up watching her I loved when she wore her hair I pigtails I wore them too she was Chrissy Snow I loved that show John Ritter I miss him too 😢❤
Rip Suzanne!❤
Suzanne Somers Such beautiful & Elegant Lady 💐your Memory will be Close to Our Heart 💝RIP🍃🙏Our sweet Chrissy 🌸
Yes ma'am, like my mom used to tell me, ' you can tell me where you've been in your life, but you can't tell me where you're going in life'! Because you don't know your future in life, nobody does. So yes..janet and john wouldn't have ever guessed that Suzanne would have gotten that far ahead of them in life😅 that just goes to show you that you never know what'll happen in life.😊...yep she laughed all the way to the bank!!😊
Suzanne was such a force to reckon with. What a classy, beautiful woman inside and out. What a loss to the living 😢
💖Check out Suzanne when she sung on Johnny Carson!!
She had a beautiful voice. Wow... True entertainer and a very successful entrepreneur!!
She was definitely above the gain!! She will never be forgotten! 🤍
Can so relate to a lot of wat Suzanne had said/lived/experienced...I am also a victim/survivor of childhood abuse... Felt Worthless my whole life until I got therapy at age 55.. the last thing my therapist said to me was... the same thing ...which is ...the worst is over since then I have been okay ... my therapist saved my Life...which I have said to her ..more than once!What a smart intelligent talented beautiful sexy human being! Loved you on Threes company! REST IN PEACE.... MY DEAR FRIEND... SUZANNE SOMERS 😩💔🙏✌️❤
Awesome interview. I learned more about Suzanne this morning than I’ve known about her entire career. Though a rough and troubled beginning… She did learn through it and become a better person for it. She is absolutely right that she was in the right place and where she needed to be at this point in her life, I had always wanted to buy her seasonings and oils even her skin care, but could never afford the prices she had on them. Very proud of her products for sure 💕👍I know that they costly to produce. So unless I’m in a specialty shop somewhere in Southern California and find a rack of sale items, I probably will never get to taste Her delicious oils or vinegars…. also, I just found out that she believed in God. I have often wondered as I have watched her shows many times, and I’ve never heard her speak of God/her God or Jesus Christ. Though I found she and her husband a little conceited they were fun to watch in the kitchen. Having their cocktail with a vodka splash. God bless them all her children and her daughter-in-law, especially that will feel the impact most likely harder than the rest. As you can tell, I’m continuing to watch. I hope they are continuing to make money on her behalf.
Susan (Mahoney) Somers was baptized and raised Catholic. She had a moral compass ❤
I think Alan will have a Suzanne foundation for women and everything they did together... Suspect it was talked about over the 20+yrs she battled Cancer back to remission n nahe said he saw 'down the road'... So being 74yr I think and he just turned 86yr I think 💬 Both were a blink away from be'n without the other... This cancer reoccurring must've triggered everything she, they wanted to be the legacy... Her books are a forever Gift' 🎁 she'll be here thru her words... Now whatever Alan shares the family will just be another conversation with Suzanne
More not less of her Sweet dear self!
God Speed we are so blessed to have known you... 😘🕊️🌬️
Alan is Jewish. He had her a Jewish burial. @@sweetesthawaiianprincess8086
This is so informational.
RIP Mama
Organic , means it comes natural , you can pay for dance lessons but if you cant have the natural moves your only mechanical , you can always tell the singers , dancers, actors , an actresses that it’s bought and not natural , you have a blessing when it’s bought and natural .
I admired Suzanne summers so much in my childhood(and CS)I wore stripy sun dresses 👗 and bikinis 👙 I wore the square ponytail on top that flopped off on one side I even wore summer high heals (for children lol) and would pose for pictures head tilted holding my fingers with one of my foot turned inwards they only thing was that….I had brown hair! But to me I looked a identical to her🥰
This is the best interview of Suzanne Somers I’ve heard so far. She really talks about how misogynistic and sexist the producers of Three’s Company were, and how they screwed it up for everyone. Imagine if the producers listened to Suzanne’s ideas about Chrissy Snow, the show would’ve MADE MONEY to a point where Joyce DeWitt and John Ritter would’ve been set for life.
Apparently there was a contract in place that no actor could make more than the stated star: John Ritter who was fantastic. Would have been better possibly if they included Joyce.
@@sweetesthawaiianprincess8086 If John wanted, he could’ve talked to the producers on Suzanne and Joyce’s behalf, as the producers were misogynistic. Plus, while John was definitely incredible, so was Suzanne. The show was never the same when Suzanne left.
I’m not so sure Three’s Company had too many more seasons to go. There wasn’t a lot of depth to the characters. Formulaic plot lines.
@@sweetesthawaiianprincess8086 She just said in this interview she didnt ask for what he made she asked for less.
There were no misogynistic and sexist agendas back then. John Ritter simply carried the show and Joyce apparently had a clause she would make whatever Suzanne would make, which would have been outrageous for that time.
Only wish I had meant someone like this, Long ago.
Because I was never able to overcome the childhood, and Im 73😢.
How Blessed💙🙏 Bruce was to have a Mom who did.
I wanted to have 6 Children from age 13 and a Wondrous Forever, Loving Marriage ~like Suzanne and Alan💞.
But, Sadly, though I Tried, I couldnt Overcome.
This is an amazing interview. The saddest thing was watching Suzanne get mixed up with the bogus so-called doctor, Nicholas James Gonzalez. He truly was a quack. The Wikipedia on him is something else. Incredibly, his bogus practices are still being promoted by other quacks. I'm glad the world had her as long as we did. Such a talent.
Please post the video instead of just a still photo. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Why is the interviewer talking over Suzanne and cutting her off? Not all the tine, but more than should happen.
I dont understand how Laverne and Shirley were paid alot of money, but Suzanne was fired after alan hamel met her bosses to make a commision off her salary. She was suddenly disposable which was alans fault. My father knew Suzanne and liked her as a friend. There must have been something Suzanne's boyfriend alan did to put off her getting a raise. Alan used her to make money and the network didnt like alan.I have a feeling they didnt like the boyfriend, allan Hamel was and why they kicked her off the show and distroyed her reputation. Suzanne is being loyal to Hamel, but he did something to make the network dislike her. Suzanne is just sticking up for her botfriend when he was the one that destroyed her career to make a buck and she had to work much harder after that as if she was his work horset to make a percentage of her salary. She died and he's still alive living off her hard work. Sad.
I believe the show was better with Suzanne. But what she didnt understand was people DIDN'T watch Three's Company to watch her. John was the main attraction. John was the Star. There was no Three's Company without John as Jack Tripper. She was absolutely wrong to be thought as the star.
She should have lived till her 90's like Barbara Eden
Sweet Suzanne’s decades long well postponed breast ca (triple negative?) plus her broken spine, neck and cerebral terrible damage from a fall plus anothe physical injury catapulted her health on a quick spiraling down decline. She was a humble bright loving strong trooper. Rest in Peace. 🙏❤️
RIP Suzanne.
Without the Cancers she likely would've.... Wonder if it was a genetic thing.... Sure she looked into All of it deciding what to do
Cause she wanted as much life as she could live.... 😘🕊️🌬️
@@sweetesthawaiianprincess8086
If Suzanne's cancer spread to her bones, maybe this is why her injuries were so severe and devastating.
Breast cancer commonly spreads to the spine and bones rendering them weak and prone to fractures.
If she didn't have cancer, she may have recovered better.
She must have been in so much pain.
Poor thing.
Condolences to AL and her family.
@@sweetesthawaiianprincess8086 Yes, if she didn’t fall twice she would still be alive !

Wow, wouldn’t that have been a funeral? They talked about for ever centuries now say she was the smart one of the bunch now you don’t even know that John Ritter really as fast as he it would’ve been Suzanne and Joyce and him coming down in the middle. Wow what a goodbye that would’ve been. I love it you were a marketing genius, Suzanne. I’m telling you listening to this woman. She is fantastic and I feel so bad for her family. They are surely going to miss this woman each and everyone of them. She had a lot to teach them and I hope they took the time to learn. When I hear the name, Suzanne Somers, I think strong, extremely smart, loving, caring, and anything good in life and she has the right to say I told yourself thank you Suzanne this is been the most awesome interview I have ever listened to on TH-cam rest in peace, sweet lady you will be extremely missed.
Luv her ❤
When Suzanne got fired for asking for more Pay, (way back then with Three's Company,) the executives' story of how she deserved it didn't deceive me at all, and I'd bet my breakfast for the next 50 years that the REST of the American people weren't deceived, EITHer. She was a target, just like countless other young, single, lovely women have been to men of power for many centuries. Women hate young women like this, too. Not a fun world we have. Still : keep SHININ', Suzanne Somers'es of the world!!
Suzanne was not single at the time. She married Alan the same year Three's Company aired.
Woman who are considered above average attractive (and Suzanne Somers had that in spades) know what it is like to experience when a mans desire to control them, own them whatever you want to call it. Even other women who have not had this kind of experience know of it, but perhaps do not realize how uncomfortable and stifling it can be, they instead get jealous and inflict further harm by hoping for their failure. Look at all the women Harvey Weinstein tried to dominate because he was in a position to do so. Hey Harvey Weinstein would have a hard time getting women who looked like Suzanne Somers, so he uses his power and position. The interviewer is right, that would not fly now - but then was still the time it did.
This a an uncut podcast (audio only).
Everything Suzanne said was correct. Rest well Ms. Somers.

Chrissy Snow was no Hawkeye.
Both were wonderful.
What does that even mean ... She was friends with Alan alda... Another terrific human! 😘
So if she was eating right and doing coffee enema's why did the cancer keep returning?
Who will ever know? But maybe she extended her life moreso because of her approach.
The breast ca had one last return. Other ca’s were unrelated: hyperplasia uterus and melanoma.
Like all cancers, breast cancer is likely to spread to certain organs oppose to other organs.
One of a few places breast cancer spreads to is the bones, which can lead to painful spinal cord compression and back pain.
When Suzanne had her fall and had neck and spine problems requiring surgery, it could've been because her cancer had spread to her bones, making her fragile / most likely to fracture more easily than if she was healthy.
I don't think any treatment for cancer is 100% effective.
There's always that chance of it returning. Some can be cleared only to have it return years later. Some people get it and are blessed not to get it again.
What a stupid statement , cancer is a process that you decide how to treat it . She lived decades after her diagnosis without traditional meds so many only last a few years on those poisons . She lived decades from it , and looked Amazing , healthy . Listen to her interview again and listen 👂 😊
@@barbarasmyth9752 F*#$ off Barbara! It was an innocent statement coming from someone who may have no experience with cancer. READ the statement again without prejudice this time!!
Susan aged very badly. In my opinion I almost didn't recognize her. N her husband wanted more money. He messed up her career almost.
She was 76 years old and she looked great for her age. She loved her husband and had a very good life with him. MY daddy died when he was 76. We are not going to be here forever.
Suzanne. Actually looks good for her 70s.
Suzanne be a gem Lived her ...Shined beautifully. .Beautiful inside abd out Wise A good example if walking her talk She's not aging well Saud the donkey to the swan 😉
She held a masterclass in aging beautifully Charming dear funny nurturing g Healthwise Creative...
@@smpeace2683Actually 77. She would have turned 77 the next day.
