Three's Company: Alone Together

I don't think this adaptation of the Man About the House episode "And Then There Were Two" is nearly as good.  For one thing, the subplot about Mr. Roper and the real estate fraud is less interesting than Jo's nephew's christening.  And for another, the male roommate possibly "attacking" Chrissy plot is more tasteless here than in the British version.  Note that Jack is now dating Linda, although they seem to break up over the phone at the end.  (We won't see her till later.)

Sondra Currie makes her first of three 3'sC appearances, this time as Sherry Lee.  This is the first of two Bryan Joseph scripts.  And for some reason there are two directors, Hobin and Ross.
