Synopsis: The Ropers was the first spin-off for the super comedy
hit, Three's Company. The story has the oddly matched couple, the landlords
to Jack and company, selling their apartment building and moving across
town into a posh townhouse development. Their neighbors in this upscale
community never quite adjust to Stanley and Helen's outrageous antics,
especially Jeffrey P. Brooks III, who lives next door with his proper
family.
Released in mid-season, this spin-off began in the spring of 1979 as
an instant rating success, airing directly after Three's Company.
It received a 55 percent audience share in its ABC Network debut and
stayed in the top ten all the rest of that season.
In its second season, the show moved time slots to air Saturday night
at 8 p.m. The time-slot change would turn out to be a difficult move
for the show, and only twenty-six episodes would be produced.
