At 74 years old, Joyce DeWitt, best known for her role in the iconic TV show Three’s Company, takes a moment to reflect on her illustrious career. After a hiatus from the entertainment industry, Joyce has made a notable return to the public eye. Recalling her time on the show, she expresses gratitude for the experience. “It was such a gift. I mean, it was iconic. But who would have thought it?” Joyce says, her smile evident in her words. She reminisces about the show’s intention to offer a modern twist on the 16th-century farce, balancing moments of silliness with underlying serious themes.
Friendship and Love: The Heart of the Show
Joyce fondly remembers her late co-star, John Ritter, and the essence of Three’s Company. “John Ritter used to say, ‘We don’t want people to just laugh but to fall over their couch laughing,’” she recalls. The show, although eventually canceled, was celebrated for its depth of friendship and love among the characters, which resonated deeply with audiences. Despite its cancellation, Three’s Company earned a Primetime Emmy, marking a significant achievement in television history.
