[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 104662, member: 27"] I always got the impression that a lot of the backstage problems (even those that bled onto the screen) were instigated by the producers, as if they enjoyed pitting the stars against one another in a "boys club" sort of way. It's been a long time since I saw the [I]E! True Hollywood Story[/I] documentary that was made about [I]Three's Company, [/I]but one[I] [/I]part that really stuck in my mind was how the producers were so eager to create and produce a spin-off (which became the DOA [I]Three's A Crowd)[/I] that they basically shoved DeWitt and Barnes out the door without so much as a "thank you". Though Barnes was a bit newer to the show, DeWitt had been with them from the beginning and was totally disrespected at the end in favor of making the new show all about Ritter/Jack...as if he had been the only "draw" of the show. Neither of them deserved such treatment, and I don't recall Ritter ever coming to their defense. [/QUOTE]
