I miss this time in America. Game shows all morning, REAL soap operas on tv. Real sitcom reruns to fill the tv daytime tv gap. Especially on cold winter and rainy days.
@1906tpir .... I agree with you completely!!! I think anybody old enough to have experienced this time in our history misses it ... every last one of us
Fact: "Three's Company" was taped at the same studios Tattletales, Match Game, and The Price is Right did their shows (the latter still on CBS at this time): The network's very own Television City, from Seasons 2 thru 6 (1977-82) before moving back to KTTV (Fox) Channel 11's now-defunct Metromedia Square for the final two seasons.
I know that! Fox didn't exist back in '77, '82' 83, or '84. And, yes, TC was produced at Metromedia Sq for the pilot episode and most of the first season and the final two seasons (1982-84). Check the TC page at Wikipedia.org.
A number of teams weren't married to each other as well (not necessarily a requirement to be on the show), including Jenilee and Jeff (just good friends, I think). Anna and Gordon were married many years, too. Were they divorced, or did Anna die? Oddly, Jenilee was married since 1993 to the same person.
Except Jeff and Jenilee. They were just good friends. BTW, Jenilee was still single at the time, but would get married about 10 years later, to a different man (They're still together AFAIK).

Absolutely true.

Bert passed away in 1991.
He was so charming and handsome. He was so talented.
"They've got to make their own decisions" Very true statement from Gordon Jump!
I like the older opening style where all of the couples come out to meet the audience first.
Jan 25-29, 1982
"Three girls and a shotgun." -- I remember this episode from when it first aired! I still use that line.
God won't like that remark.
+Paul LaRue Think of it was a little fire and brimstone (sulphur is used in gunpowder).
@ZoneFighter1 No. 12:24 point.
I thought for YEARS it was "daughters," too. But it's "girls."
Please, don't say Mandela Effect.
Thinking about prize money, each person in the winning section won a whole $9.16.
Hey that brought a loaf of bread and gallon of milk plus some chicken quarters to cook for supper back then. Just saying
I had no IDEA that Jeanne Le Harrison was famous before Three's Company (and I didn't know she was on Dallas either)
Thanks for this:D
And now Bill is 90...
What red-blooded male would NOT have given Jennilee Harrison a back rub?
It would be interesting to see if maybe ABC might revive this show and, if they do, how much money might be at stake.

CBS had this show. Fox Television didn't have this show.

Nice wig bill!
Most of the people on this show and all Tattletales is they have been married more then once. Marcy and William married 23 years before they divorced.
A number of teams weren't married to each other as well (not necessarily a requirement to be on the show), including Jenilee and Jeff (just good friends, I think). Anna and Gordon were married many years, too. Were they divorced, or did Anna die? Oddly, Jenilee was married since 1993 to the same person.
marcy was his longest union... his fourth marriage recently ended, i believe.
_More_ celebrity marriages ruined...
Except Jeff and Jenilee. They were just good friends. BTW, Jenilee was still single at the time, but would get married about 10 years later, to a different man (They're still together AFAIK).
The others would be divorced later and Gordon is now deceased.
So what number wife is this with Bill?
Wow, Marcy Shatner has really aged
JTLYK, it's Jenilee, not Jeanne Le.
Is Gordon's wife an actress?
I don't think so.
this is the first episode
Not the first episode. Jennilee mentioned that five years prior she was in the audience & handed the microphone to Burt.
Raw Fish?! Ewwwww!
Nude volleyball game?! Nasty!
