Flicking through the channels, I just caught sight of Don Knotts. In color and definately post Ghost and Mrs. Chicken. I kept moving but kept wondering just what I had caught sight of. What was he doing in orange pants and a tan ascot? Oh yeah, Three's Company. How sad. He wasn't even the first choice for the role. Mr. Roper died, remember?
Flashback to casting:
"We need a consumate actor. Someone who can evoke the spirit and hip vibe of a naiive landlord, without dimming and overshadowing the memory of Mr. Roper. And, more importantly, who's available to start on Monday?"
This might explain why she was so hard on Cassandra.
