Three's Company Trivia

Among the interesting tidbits:
* Billy Crystal auditioned for the role of Jack Tripper.
* Suze Lanier-Bramlett, who played Chrissy on the second unaired pilot, is seen on the show's ending for the first several seasons alongside Jack and Janet, where the three are tossing bread to seagulls at the beach. This ending was carried over from the pilot and wasn't re-shot with with Suzanne Somers as Chrissy.
* Priscilla Barnes said her years on the show were the unhappiest in her professional career. She almost quit as soon as she was cast because she did not like the backstage atmosphere.
* During Somers' clash with the producers at the start of the fifth season, the cast had to be given scripts with Chrissy (blue), and without Chrissy (pink) in them. Most of the time, Chrissy's lines were given to Mr. Furley (Knotts).
