Three's Company: The Babysitters

Three's Company: The Babysitters
ABC
January 17, 1978
Sitcom
DVD
B

This is an NRW adaptation of a MAtH episode I don't currently have, where it's a Robin & Chrissy plot.  There are some differences, including much more sexual tension between the British babysitters, but it's overall the same plot.  Janet has a date and can't babysit for her friends the Randalls.  (Jerry Randall is played by Archie Hahn, who was on The Bob Newhart Show a couple times and who would go on to Whose Line Is It Anyway?)  She pressures Chrissy and Jack into covering for her.  This is the episode where Mrs. Roper innocently says the word "nipple."

Sheila Rogers, Punkin's mother, had appeared on That Girl and What's Happening!!, but she's more memorable for her four later appearances on 3'sC, as a nurse at Terry's hospital.
