Three's Company: Chrissy's Date

Three's Company: Chrissy's Date
ABC
October 11, 1977
Sitcom
DVD
B

I'm currently missing the Man About the House episode that NRW adapted, but I remember it as being equally good.  Chrissy here dates a post-Bewitched Dick Sargent as Lloyd Cross, who lies about being divorced.  This is one of the better episodes showing Jack's sweetness to and protectiveness of Chrissy, although Chrissy does defend herself against Lloyd's lies.  Joyce Bulifant, who was then best known as Murray Slaughter's wife on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, plays Mrs. Cross.

Note that although the "dirty word" scrabble isn't as extensive as on a different MAtH episode, Jack does think Janet is spelling "tit" rather than "title."  The other words are in-joky, like "snow," "wood," and "company."
