How JOHN RITTER Overcame His Fear of Being “Up in the Air"
Consider Subscribing @TVsbesteps
-- Uplifting Eps --
"Up in the Air" (Three's Company)
Season 6, Episode 25
Written by: Shelley Zellman
Directed by: Dave Powers
Terri (Priscilla Barnes) convinces Janet (Joyce Dewitt) to take Jack (John Ritter) to a fancy party in order to make another man (Barry Williams) jealous. But the party is on an island and Jack is afraid to fly. So Larry (Richard Kline) gives Jack some tranquelizers for the flight.
At the party, Jack is still loopy from the pills and makes matters worse when he combines it with an energy drink... leading him to dance the night away.
This episode is considered a favorite amongst the Three's Company cast, including Ritter himself.

    If streaming services are cutting random content of things for a specific purpose like sitcoms, it raises a question, "what for?". Regardless of what it is "for ", if they are 'selfishly' showing different edited versions of the same show.. ie, to facilitate either: shoving more ads into the show time, to avoid paying royalties for music, to perform mass psychological analysis via the logging of and experimentation with people's reactions to different versions of the same episode (like yo boy, Big G, with every incremental software update), or even just to innocently follow the whims of the Christian Right or just some marketing dork.. then why don't they don't have to disclose anymore it like if it was on a vhs or a dvd that was chopped down from letterbox format? And remember how they had to GIVE you a reason? Except Blockbuster Video didn't (and I never got to see the "Love Scene", (as my parents used to call them) in Dolomite because of that! Thanks blockbuster.... or not......or maybe.. thanks??......that's a mind boggler isnt it? to hate or not to hate blockbuster because i remember everyone kinda hated having to go there because of how obnoxious it was compared to other video stores and if you could drive 5 miles farther to go to to a slightly better video store it was worth it but i digress

One day our neighbors come over with a bunch if Alf stuff.... they had no idea Kim loved Alf, we barely talked to these people. So now we have a shrine of Alf in our basement with a full on cross and and burning candles and we pray to him to return from melmac and we will feed him all the kitties.

    I'm having a Mandela effect. I remember them driving and Jim's character saying "What does a yellow light mean"? When they all said "slow down" he said it slower and nearly got into an accident. That would of course, make no sense if Jim was getting his permit because he would not be able to legally drive yet. Saying it while driving though and almost getting into a collision is a thousand times more funny.

    60’s? No alien abductions? 😳😂 Yeah, that’s when all that pretty much started! Now a lot of so-called alien abductions(I blve a lot are true) really didn’t even come out until the last 10 years or so…where now you’re not thought of as crazy! And like I keep saying.. aliens were here before us, they’re here now ..they’re all over our skies and I believe what’s up in our skies now, is mostly the good guys! ❤ The galactic federation is absolutely a real thing! ❤❤

    Robert Reed cared a lot of about his child actor coworkers but I don’t know why he made such a big deal over certain things. It was a shit a silly show. It did have its moments, but it had to have some form of comedy and craziness.

    I was born in 77 and I wish the show was back on TV, it was a very special show to teach little children the right way to see nature and animals, and to send them out in the world with the right frame of mind. Kids today watching bloody teletubbies or something that doesn't teach them anything, kid's are missing out on something special, and look at the state of the world now. Love you Dan, and miss you friend. 😢💔👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏👍💪🇭🇲

    Christopher Lloyd was definitely a highly underrated actor. In one scene he walked in when the actor character was showing the other characters mime. Lloyd then proceeded to do a great miming performance while staying in character and being funny in Jim’s way.
