She was fired as the reigning star from Three’s Company when she stupidly let her husband go ask the producers for more money.......figuring she was indispensable.
They laughed in his face.
They wouldnt even allow her on the set.
Then she had the gall to say she was asking for raises for her co-stars,too.
Joyce De Witt and John Ritter never forgave her for sacking the hit show.
Well, Somers stayed for 5 years, the show ran for another 3 years after she left, so not sure she was 100% the reason it was cancelled. Eight years is a pretty good run for a show.
If you don’t ask you don’t receive. Obviously the show wasn’t making the bucks and wasn’t worth it to the producers. That, and stupid business decisions are made all the time.
