[QUOTE="Soaplover, post: 438471, member: 336"] Season 4 seemed to be a soft reset for the show with bringing in Furley and Lana to take over the Roper role.. with Lana and Furley having more interaction with the main three. The camping episode is one of the funniest episodes of the show..imho. I know the show revisits the older women objectifying Jack when Ellen Travoltra (of Charles in Charge fame) as his boss that makes passes at him at work.. but this time framing it as sexual harrassment on the job.. and Jack not being believed because of the idea that women weren't capable of that. Season 5 is a transition season, and I think having Cindy on there as someone younger could have been a way to reset the naive blonde character (think season 1/2 of Chrissy)... but Cindy also participates in physical comedy with Jack. Most always focus on John Ritter and his physical comedic talent.. but Jennilee was so important with setting up the routine and doing so flawlessly. Sadly, the show just viewed her as a placeholder so she was never allowed to truly develop a character. Season 6 had a strong intro for Terri, someone that kind of had the potential to be sarcastic with a heart... but after the first few episodes, the show just has be just be a placeholder.. even though the actress was charming. Eventually the show made her the straight man and made Janet the more spastic one. [/QUOTE]
