I JUST woke up and had to watch this stupid thing. Fuck jimmy--occupying everyone else's minds with his obsessions so he doesn't feel so crazy by himself! BLECHHH.
He's got a large red ball trapped in his rectum, Sam! There was a guuurl, Abigail. She was trying to perform a therpeutic back massage but wound up destroying his lower intestine, Sam.
Boy, was this a crappy show. I think it lasted about 6 weeks. So glad I could find this clip -- I was trying to convey to my hubs how stupid the theme song was and it was impossible to replicate. Gotta be the goofiest theme song ever!! LMFAO!!
@LesaJ64 Lasted 2 seasons (actually 1 and a partial season) with excellent ratings in the first season and probably would have lasted awhile had they not moved it to another time slot.
The luscious lady in the tennis whites is former child star Patricia (Patty) McCormack, who was in the classic thriller "The Bad Seed", about a very evil, mean little girl (possibly the inspiration for the 1990s movie "The Good Son" with Macaulay Culkin).
this is another bad example of remaking a british classic!..the opening titles say it all..really cheap and embarrassing to watch..george and mildred is a classic comedy series..the same happened with man about the house..that was remade into threes company..steptoe and son, remde into sanford and son..dont get me wrong they are some great american comedies..happy days for instance..a true classic..imagine if they tried to remake that in britain...it would be a total flop. originals are best.
Patricia McCormack must have felt really stupid doing this intro..."You want me to do what...pretend I am hitting a tennis ball? And that is how I am going to be introduced on the show?"
even as popular as their characters were on 3s company, it doesn't mean they could carry a show on their own. Florence's character from The Jeffersons had the same problem when she left for her own show CHECKING IN which lasted only a few episodes. She obviously needed George Jefferson who was the butt of her jokes and vice versa.
The best part of this theme song is at 0:34 when you hear a little bit of three's company I can't believe the people that did the music for three's company did this song coulda been way better
@bubbaXzone -This was a spin off for "Three's Company but only lasted one season, so don't worry, the reruns of it should end shortly, like by early October.
@joycollector yeah I mean come on release it on dvd for crying out loud other shows they should consider are: Phyllis, Flo, I haven't seen and seasons of the show "Alice" on the shelf anywhere. The ratings were strong in the beginning then they fell when it was moved to a new night.
Joe Raposo wrote the theme (and it sounds like something he could have created for "SESAME STREET"). During the second season, a 30 second version of this title was mostly used.
This looks really bad and cheesy compared to George and Mildred, which was hilarious and better than what it 'spun-off' from. It looks similar to the Brady Bunch - standard American opening themes or something?
@BettinaBalser yeah.... which back then was like equal to 500 dollars today.......regardless...... this show was awesome..... FAR better then most of the dogshit we get today on tv....
I don't care if it was good, bad or indifferent. Just put it on DVD. I mean, have you seen some of the stuff that has made it to DVD? "Pink Lady and Jeff"? Really?
Patti McCormick from the Bad Seed movie & Jeffrey Tambor were both funny, yet Norman Fell dancing with the plunger was proof this show was going down the toilet fast.
Norman Fell ate the blueberry pie!!!!!!!!!!!
