What to Know

Critics Consensus

Three's Company features a likable enough trio of stars, but this sitcom's over-reliance on smutty jokes proves more irritatingly naughty than nice.

What was good, clean fun in Man About the House turns into innuendo, leer and smut in Three's Company. Go to Full Review
Marvin Kitman Newsday 06/24/2021
It's as reasonable a premise for a series as any. But creators Bernie West, Don Nicholl and Michel Ross are not commenting on this sociological trend in a funny or sophisticated way. Half the problem is that I'm not 12 years old anymore. Go to Full Review
Jerry Coffey Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com 06/24/2021
The situation is innocent enough, but the comedy isn't. Tuesday night's pilot script was genuinely funny, but most of the laughs derived from sexual innuendo that some viewers will find offensive. Go to Full Review
Win Fanning Pittsburgh Post-Gazette 06/24/2021
The performances are uniformly adequate and the writing, at least in this episode, is topnotch. Go to Full Review

Mike P @RT09890132 01/07/2025 Back in the day this was dismissed as a porno with a laugh track. And while that isn't far off; it also has some genuinely fun and funny moments; and a great cast. Although smart, it is not. But maybe that's ok. If you're into relatively innocent innuendo and nostalgia from the trashy but fun 70s; this could be your jam... Fun from the house that Jack built... See more B. @RT25236649 01/28/2023 Lighthearted tomfoolery. No woke preaching, just sophomoric risqué humor from a more easy-going time.
