it thank you so much make yourself at home thank you ever so much for bringing these bloopers from Three's Company well you are very welcome dick you know until I watch them again I'd forgotten some of these moments myself that's to be expected you have to have almost a photographic memory to recall everything yeah well as this blooper will show you dick my photographic memory has often been and just a little bit out of focus you know what really turns me [Music] well that funny thing is that my boobers were usually not forgetting my lines the problem was that I enjoyed my lines too much sometimes sometimes I found that what we were doing was so funny that unfortunately I would enjoy it as much as the audience didn't take this scene Jack and Janet are talking to a character played by one of our all-time favorite guest stars Jeffrey Tambor whom we suspect is a mental patient but we don't want him to know that that's what we're thinking take a look so Tom how are you nuts [Applause] now this next scene is kind of unusual for Three's Company it's you and John Ritter sharing the same bed mm-hmm yes and that is unusual in this episode we were pretending to be married to fool my mother and well sometimes John is just so disarming that you are absolutely helpless before him what are you doing just in case your mother [Music] she tried so hard but she really cracked up that's a screw-up no I understand this next group of boomers came from Suzanne Somers private collection that's right that's right Suzanne has what she likes to call her personal gag reel it contained many of her bloopers over the years and here's a couple of her very special moments that she was kind enough to share with us tonight don't you have any consideration for the two of us damn it what are the reasons I left home was cuz no one thought I was old enough to - what's wrong with saying I'm very pleased to meet you does anyone know okay here's a trivia question for you what was the name of John Ritter's character on Three's Company well as a fan of the show I happen to know it's Jack Tripper it's an easy no well not for Suzanne in this particular episode Michael this is John well let's let's talk a little bit about John Ritter oh absolutely a joy to work with and totally unpredictable I could have guessed that and of course he had this habit of always breaking me up like in this particular blooper which features Don Knotts and Jenny Lee Harrison now the plot has John pretending that he's his identical twin brother from down south the scene has Jon exiting the apartment and when he opens the door we're just supposed to see a little subtle fog effect what happened well you're about to see for yourself and poor Jenny Lee and I well we're just done for you anywhere tonight well I got to I got to catch the next flight home in this fog fog yeah it's thicker piece about there what [Music] [Music] is a matte overcast so what about that time that John made that grand entrance oh yeah this is really a mini parter you see it was important to the scene that John entered the apartment and not closed the door behind him but he just couldn't remember not to close it so what you're gonna see right now is about the fourth or the fifth take I got it I got it Jason defarge's review [Music] and of course every time that we reset to shoot his entrance over and over and over we were all teasing him mercilessly so in this entrance he decided to get us all back [Applause] like I said dick he is wonderfully unpredictable you can say that again Thank You Joyce very very much for the bloopers Joyce DeWitt ladies gentleman next Laverne and Shirley Billy Crystal Tom Hanks and John Travolta you know in doing this 50th anniversary salute we discovered some treasures that we really had no idea even existed take for example this little scene outtake from Laverne & Shirley it features Penny Marshall as you would expect but take a look at who is playing the role of her boyfriend -

Judd Hirsch hey thanks dick you know taxi II was a wonderful experience and one of the reasons was the great writing that's why as an actor I tried to interpret those words just as the writer intended them all so there's what I call license for wishful thinking I have no right being here I don't even want to be here in fact it'll probably be do Nui know did you go Blayne worst part is I didn't even get dinner out of it usually when a guy dumps me takes me to a nice place hey I tell you what let's do I'll get the guys together and we'll go we'll go to some you know funny-looking joint which is around a corner and have a couple of beers and then we'll all jump on top of you and now everyone remembers the character of Reverend Jim sort of spaced out ex-hippie of course Christopher Lloyd the actor who played him was nothing like that or was he Wow your guess is as good as mine Wow what do you think the odds are that was that okay okay here's a scene where Christopher Lloyd had a kind of a poignant moment in an empty courtroom and he decides to walk up to the judges bench when no one's around to see what all that power and authority feels like but Danny and I had a better idea okay you know Danny DeVito took so much joy in playing that mean-spirited tyrant Louie but sometimes you just got onto my skin and my reactions I'm afraid was sometimes not for public consumption love life now this next blooper is one of my favorites and I'm not even in it now it features Danny and a wonderful character actor named Lucas now Lou had what you might call a hangdog expression and Danny couldn't look him in the eye without watch Maxie started Maxie's when Maxie stop Washington Ridge with dental work max look at it in this way just middle-aged I don't want to say anything I mean I don't really want to say that Maxie's old but when he started trucking the George Washington Bridge was dental work I've been looking it in this way max you're not really old you just middle-aged all right but look look at it look at it in this way max you know okay yeah thanks for inviting me to be part of this 50th anniversary celebration if you've proven one thing over the years it's that good shows may come and good shows may go but bloopers go on forever ladies and gentlemen thank you judge very very much and don't go away we had a lot more to come stay tuned for one of the most famous bloopers of all tired [Music] [Applause] tonight we leave you with a true gem from a legendary children's program the sufi sales show now that aired on ABC from 1955 to 1962 now you need to know that part of Sufis regular routine was to have the doorbell ring after which he would open the door partway into a little comedy routine with an actor who's hidden from view now on this particular show the crew totally surprised sufi who would already rehearsed the door scene with one of the regular cast of characters but during the show the crew pulled a switch and the person they sent to the door was a totally naked woman Rajah I mean she was hidden from the viewers of course but not from Sookie sales so remember this was live television and soubise gonna open the door and right before his eyes there's a woman with no clothes on at all it's an all time blessing [Music] [Applause] Emily this is live so soupy has to keep going [Music] [Music] now there was a camera that recorded the other side of the door and here's what Scooby saw hey it's been a great 50 years and one thing's for sure we've only scratched the surface when do this again real soon for now Dick Clark solo join us next week for part TV [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause]
