And they weren’t alone. Look at Three’s Company, which initially made over a half billion dollars in syndication. Suzanne Somers had the nerve to ask for a piece of that. And the producers, by many accounts, enjoyed belittling her and punishing her by writing her part down to almost nothing before firing her. And the press went along with it, depicting her as the villain. Somers was not innocent and made a lot of missteps while negotiating. But the misogyny was clear to me: how dare this woman ask to share in the profits of a show where she was a significant player?</blockquote>
