Estil | 1,265 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 (edited) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzanne_Somers I personally remember her better from the 90s sitcom Step by Step (not to be confused with the New Kids on the Block song) but this was obviously her real claim to fame: I'd love to be in a Three's Company kind of deal with the ABBA girls Edited October 15, 2023 by Estil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renmauzo | 1,201 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Cancer...damn. Like Estil, I also remember her most from Step by Step. TGIF was great back then, with shows like that and Hangin' with Mr. Cooper, Boy Meets World, Family Matters, Dinosaurs, etc. Watching Three's Company reruns really takes me back though.

I mostly remember her from watching Three's Company reruns (and not realizing how dirty that show was with innuendo.) Step by Step was weird to me, because I knew her from Company and Patrick Duffy from Dallas. I just couldn't get it out of my head that the show was as if Bobby Ewing hooked up with Chrissy Snow, and adopted Nicole from My Two Dads.

AirVillain | 489 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 DIdn't realize she was the mom in Step by Step. Loved me some Three's Company though. Would be interesting to watch it now as an adult. I've seen bits but not full episodes in their entirety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her Three's Company alumna / replacement, Priscilla Barnes, is the March 1976 Penthouse Pet of the Month. She posed under a pseudonym well before she was widely famous. I have that issue somewhere in my "archives." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forget, does each month's Playmate get to be on the cover or the centerfold...or both at the same time? That must be quite an honor as Wikipedia sees fit to recognize all of them with their own articles!

For the record my usual attire is t-shirt (my current one reads "BEST CAT DAD EVER"  ) and shorts or sweatpants. I seldom go anywhere besides the grocery store or grandma's so I don't really have much reason to wear anything else...
