This page lists all of the episodes aired during the fifth season of the popular ABC sitcom series Three's Company.
Since the departure of Suzanne Somers from the series cast towards the end of the previous season, producers had been looking for another cast member and new roommate to best compliment the talents of John Ritter and Joyce DeWitt; although they had cast Jenilee Harrison into the part of Cindy Snow, Chrissy's cousin, and also though the show was still in the top five in the Nielsen ratings, the chemistry, as seen by the producers, was just not quite there between the clumsy Cindy and the now often-suffering Jack, whose pratfalls always seemed to be used as the punch line, the victim of mistake prone Cindy's misgivings, always having a revolving kitchen door strike him in the face as she absent-mindedly barged through it.
The show's producers felt the show needed another roommate as a proper balance between the characters that could still be funny enough to serve the comedy in the storyline; then they found it in actress/model Priscilla Barnes, who had previously appeared in guest spots on such ABC shows such as Fantasy Island and Love Boat, and also as a regular on the short-lived CBS nighttime soap opera/drama series All-American Girls.
Priscilla would assume the role of Nurse Terri Alden, who unlike the clumsy Cindy, and the progression somewhat naive, ditsy characterization the Chrissy Snow character had taken with Suzanne Somers in the part, Terri was a smart, assertive professional, a nurse who could hold her own with the sleazy guy types, such as Larry and still exude sexiness with a heart of gold.
The introduction of Priscilla as Terri Alden began in a two-part episode Terri Makes Her Move at the beginning of season 6; Jenilee, whose character, Cindy, was headed off to college (UCLA) would remain with the cast, making sporadic appearances throughout the season.
