1. I like the one ...
where Mr. Roper makes a crack at his wife, then laughs into the camera.

4. The one where Chrissy and Janet do it.
Maybe that was just in my head. I get confused.

5. How can you NOT include the one
where Mr.Furley dresses funny and makes a joke about Jack being light in the loafers?

Don Knotts was my personal (love?) God...until Three's Company (sniffle) plus he looks like my Mom...I think I may need professional help.

6. In all seriousness,
the best episode was the one where Jack tries to pretend he's dead so that big bully won't beat him up.

They set up the fake funeral and Ritter delivers one of the funniest lines in sitcom history while laying in his coffin...

"What am I? Jack in the Box!"

7. The show hasn't dated well...
Season 1 really was uproariously funny, but was only 6 episodes.

Season 2 lacks the wit BEHIND the double entendres. And while the visual catchphrase of Roper making a comment about his wife then turning to the camera and grinning generally is hilarious, it doesn't make up for the other 24 minutes that are so-so at best.

I recall Don Knotts' first season with Suzanne Sommers being hilarious (mostly for Don Knotts but Suzanne had Chrissy to a T by then), but the show went downhill after that.

I much prefer Norman Lear's works (the first 4 years if All in the Family, early Maude, early Good Times, etc...)

9. The threesome where Jack proves his "fairydom" by doing it to
Furley AND Roper?

10. The one where there was the big misunderstanding....
that lead to a series of pratfalls by Jack and other assorted wacky adventures.
