Wow, can't believe she was 76. Her role in Three's Company seems timeless.

RIP. Saw Joyce De Witt at Hunterdon Hills Playhouse in August.

RIP. Loved that show.

Still makes me laugh.

Every guy's goddess

Bubbly bouncy blonde.. perfect foil for John Ritter's campy physical comedy. I guess the first blonde of that type to make it big since Marilynn.. Goldie Hawn, IO guess.. but she didn't have the same, er, "assets".

The show did so many smart things for the Chrissy role... it was like she didn't know how attractive she was.. they gave her that pigsnort laugh... made her dumb and so nice.

The story of how she got that American Graffitti role..

 

[ashokan]

Its said that Charlie's Angels was root of T&A and "Jiggle TV" but the Angels were mostly hair-dos
Somers was the jiggle queen - had a dozen different moves to put the baps in motion.
I like the "American Graffiti" Blonde the most though.
A lot of the more memorable women I've seen were in cars, walking out of stores as I walked in etc.

 

[LOU-RU85]

Wow - loved that show. Sad day. RIP.

 

[RUGuitarMan1]

RIP. Man, all the childhood actors, musicians, etc. that I remember are passing quickly.

 

[RUBOB72]

Boomer memories

[Colbert17!]

She was responsible for many teen age boys learning how to use the "pause" button on their VCR.

 

[PiscatawayMike]

Come and knock on our door... always wished she'd knock on mine. Never happened.

R.I.P. Suzanne.

 

[MulletCork]

Ahh man. A true legend. Sad stuff. RIP. Damn.

 

[hankee18]

What a woman. What a body and set of legs. Held up extremely well into her older years, too - the true test of anyone. May she R.I.P.

 

[tom1944]

She made a hell of a lot of money with that equipment

 

[greenknight]

RIP. Saw Joyce De Witt at Hunterdon Hills Playhouse in August.

2 of my good friends do Chiller Theater shows.
All these old show actors & actresses show up to the Chiller shows. 3's company was there

Stupid sitcom. Beautiful girl. Obviously a very strong fighter. RIP.

Funny sitcom.

Better no one knocking than the John Ritter character and Mr. Hurley. LOL

See - she knew how to get that lil bounce in there

Terri is too (Priscilla Barnes).

Beavis and Butt-Head paid homage (cued up)-- you can guess their dialog!

Nice! The banned episode as well.

Have the entire collection of old episodes including music videos on a personal library. Apparently Paramount/MTV could not (or would not spend the $) for the access to the videos, and they were cut out. The videos were the best part.

Back to Suzanne Somers, had not realized that she did not have much of a career after Three's Company. Various small parts in TV movies, movies and TV shows. Hope she made a lot of $$$ on Three's Company.

I bet she made more money doing Step by Step which was a Friday night show on ABC in the 90’s. Patrick Duffy was her husband.

Well, I missed that one completely. I don't recall that show at all.

Apparently, there was show called "She's the Sheriff too that ran for 44 episodes, where she was the Sheriff in a town near Lake Tahoe. It apparently was aired in first-run syndication.

Dont forget Terri..Priscilla Barnes. She actually was on the final 3 seasons and honestly after a few episodes you started to forget about Chrissy who was already barely appearing the previous 2 seasons

I felt the dynamic did work with her and also with Furley replacing the Ropers. Though those orginial 2 seasons were gold
