- Series overview
This page lists all of the episodes aired during the fourth season of the popular ABC-TV sitcom series Three's Company, which ran on the network from 1977 to 1984.
A major cast change came into being when two of the series's stars, Audra Lindley, who played the part of Helen Roper, and Norman Fell, who appeared as husband Stanley, were granted the opportunity to co-star in their own series, titled The Ropers, which premiered in September. At the end of the previous season, two episodes were written to accommodate the Ropers' move from the Hacienda Palms Apartments into the exclusive Cheviot Hills neighborhood in the new series.
For the new season, the series would gain two accomplished veteran actors; veteran TV comedy series/film star Don Knotts, who starred on the hit 1960's CBS series The Andy Griffith Show would assume the role of new landlord, quirky, loud-dressing, self-professed ladies man Ralph Furley, and actress Ann Wedgeworth would join the cast as Lana Shields, a saucy, attractive, 40-something divorcee, who really has the "HOTS" for Jack, after going out with him, where Jack was working as a paid escort, but whom Furley would go head over heels for, much to the character Lana's cringing displeasure.

In actuality, the doctor (Keene Curtis) is tearing up from laughing at Chrissy's jokes and that Chrissy is due to be discharged that day in perfect health. 63 10 \t"The Loan Shark"\tDave Powers \tMark Tuttle \tNovember 20, 1979 \t0410 Chrissy loses a check Jack planned to use to pay his tuition. Chrissy gets the money for Jack, who is horrified to discover she got it from a loan shark. The shark learns Jack is a chef, who will trade cooking lessons for his wife in lieu of paying interest on the loan. However, the shark's young, beautiful wife is more interested in Jack than in learning cuisine. When her husband catches her kissing Jack, she explains that she is congratulating Jack for the baby he and his "wife" Chrissy are "expecting". 64 11 \t"The Love Barge"\tDave Powers \tGene Perret & Bill Richmond \tNovember 27, 1979 \t0411 Jack gets the opportunity to work as a chef on a cruise ship and the girls almost end their friendship over who Jack can take as his one guest. Lana tries to invite herself, under the pretense that Janet and Chrissy shouldn't end their friendship over a cruise.

Carmel), has come into town and Ralph wants to look like a big-shot, because Denker has always been more successful. He talks Chrissy into posing as his trophy wife while Denker visits.

Baser, Mark Chambers & Kim Weiskopf \tDecember 11, 1979 \t0413 Lana reads a letter in an advice column that mentions a man living with two girls and who is having an affair with one of them.
