Joyce DeWitt

Janet was reasonably smart considering the show.

Joyce was more attractive than Suzanne.

There's already a 3's Company thread going. Please post there instead.

And such a bitch, too.

Someone should start an "If's A Living" thread.

There's already an active one, r4.

There's one of those already, R4. Let me direct you to it, so R2 doesn't start twitching about it in a control-freak moment.

The only women less remarkable than Joyce who mysteriously led their own sitcoms are Susan Clark and Joanna Kerns.

JOYCE!

You've got a great pair of L'Eggs!

Honey, I don't need to be more famous -- I'm rich.

Joyce is very sweet. I have a picture of the two of us I took with my cellphone last December but I'll never share it with datalounge.

Joyce De HalfWitt for Half Leggs

Joyce was actually an accomplished theater actress before landing the role of Janet. She also has a masters degree from UCLA.

Her only problem was that she took the shows issues to heart. If she hadn't voluntarily left the business for a number of years, she easily could have a steady career doing supporting roles.

I have a drama degree from Carnegie Mellon. It doesn't make you charismatic or compelling to watch.

R10, does she have pants on?

She had a cute little body in R11

Her hair do was a fro, OP, and Bonnie Franklin's was a bowl cut. Are you extremely hungry right now or something?

It actually became more of a shag.

Yes, r17, she was copying MEEEEEE!!!

Around here, the name is "DL Fave Joyce DeWitt" or "DL Legend Joyce DeWitt."

Do check out her annoying website, won't you?

[all posts by tedious, racist idiot removed.]

Don't I know it, r20! Even for an iconic talent like me!

My god, she was the glue of that show. Between Jack's self-centered horniness and Chrissy's dippiness. She was a talented comic actress.

Do you people know anything about comic acting?

Joyce is a Shakespearean trained actor.

[quote]Joyce is a Shakespearean trained actor.

Trained by Shakespeare himself!

[quote]Yes, [R17], she was copying MEEEEEE!!! by: Liza w a "Z"

Didn't Liza fall off the wagon shortly after Joyce ripped off her look?

R22 Thanks for your input, Joyce.

I am sure this has said before, but Kris K is her hair and eyeliner clone. I couldn't believe it the first time I saw KK, I hadn't seen 3'C in years and immediately thought of Joyce. Who knew she would be a style icon?

Joyce was always forcing her tits to bounce too. I guess she was trying to keep up with Somers.

R28 that was comic acting, not tit-bouncing!!

Remember the episode where she was passed over for a promotion because her co-worker Chloe had gigantic tits?

Arthritis?

Exactly, arthritis! That's the only gag I remember from that show, but it was a c lassie!

You would be amazed how many unqualified people manage to thrive and get ahead just by showing up everyday and being on time.

Welcome to the conversation, Mr. Bomer at r33.

I could hardly tolerate watching that show because of Suzanne attempts at trying to be a sexpot. She really was not pretty and I could only imagine (no, better not) what her Las Vegas revue was like..probably demonstrating the "Thigh Master" to the drunks in the audience.

Has anyone seen my new one-woman show at the Fresno Community Playhouse? It's called "Joyce to the World." I wrote the script myself.

It promises to be the most exciting one-woman show since Rain Pryor's "Fried Chicken and Latkes."

Damn, you homos hate on everybody. How the hell can someone have rage over the celebrity of Joyce DeWitt?

Oh dear, Shelly!

Joyce wasn't completely flat you know.

Here's a screencap from Joyce's screen test for Fallon on Dynasty.

It really shows how much free time to waste everybody has when there's a thread hating on Joyce de Witt.

You tell 'em, Joyce!

Is "Chrissy or Janet" just a later version of "Ginger or Mary Ann"?

Home sick today and watched the behind the scenes TV movie on 3C. Allen Hammill comes off the worst, portrayed as a totally amoral, narcissistic sleeze.

Joyce dated Henry "Bombastic" Buskin, Johnny Carson's lawyer.

she was much more natural in the early seasons and then her acting became amateurish and shrieky much of the time.

Perhaps she was overcomepensating for the horrible scripts. They all over acted like they were doing a junior high school play in the last year or so.

Except for Knotts who remained the master of comic timing.

The writing did get worse R47

She has played both Maureen in RENT and Mama Rose in GYPSY in the last 15 years or so. I pray someone bootlegged that shit and uploads it to YT.

God forgive me but I so enjoy the hatred for BF whose ODAAT might be the nadir of Norman Lear sitcoms who I consider the nadir of tv producers. I'll take the CBS hayseed of the 60s any day.

Funny thing is I enjoyed Franklin in Applause a lot and enjoyed her Carrie in Carousel. But something happened between Jones Beach and LA and she must now spend eternity paying for it.

the 3'a Co scripts were so bad towards the end I am surprised John Ritter agreed to do the spinoff.

Joyce would have made a fantastic Fallon! If only...

who the hell ever found somers attractive?

We did!

She was the Jan Smithers of Three's Company.

R52 a broomstick with a wig would've been better than Emma Samms.

[quote]How did this woman ever become famous?

It was the 1970s. Being a moderately attractive, somewhat cunty independent woman was in.

So many jealous, bitter and spiteful little Queens here.

Maybe get off your lazy butts and even TRY to do something important?

Leave Joyce alone you vindictive freaks.

The next who? Crazy bitch.

Joyce I nominate you for the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge!

How come no one told me Joyce had the premiere of her comeback vehicle, My Boyfriends' Dogs, on the Hallmark Channel last night???

Luckily it's repeating right now. Let's all watch and show Joyce we support her.

I watched it Saturday night, R62.

Love Hallmark Channel original movies - they're sweet, simple, and reassuring goodness.

[italic]Will our heroine find true love?[/italic] I don't know. There could be just about any outcome. Who knows?!

I think she was very cute. I guess you cant see it

And you thought your comment was worth bumping a thread from 2014?

The 2015 Troll has moved back to 2014.

Janet was a good character when the show first started. But by the end, Joyce started playing her first, which didn't really work.

She was good friends with David Letterman, and she dated Johnny Carson's lawyer, Henry Bushkin.

*"started playing her ditsy" that should read.

While I think she was integral to the show’s success, it annoyed me that she was always trying to stifle laughing. Watch any episode and you’ll see what I mean.
