The apartment that the three characters shared was a spacious, two-bedroom apartment in scenic Santa Monica but they only paid a quaint $300 per month!

The Stars of The Show Didn’t Talk to Each Other For Almost 30 Years After The Show
Usually, co-stars can create enough of a relationship to stay connected after a show ends but, for the "Three’s Company" cast, it would be almost 30 years before they would reconcile.
Somers and DeWitt publicly reconciled on Somers' talk show, and thankfully she and Ritter also reconciled shortly before his death. Considering how lighthearted the show was supposed to be, it’s wonderful the castmates were able to clear the tension between them.
Larry Dallas Was Just Supposed To Make a One-time Guest Appearance
The character of Larry Dallas (played by Richard Kline) was initially supposed to appear in a single episode. But after producers observed the chemistry between Kline and Ritter, they decided Larry should stay.
After this, Larry Dallas became a consistent character on the hit show.
John Ritter Remembered His Actor Father in a Unique Way
John Ritter is actually the son of a well known actor (from many western films) named Tex Ritter. Tex died before he ever saw his son on "Three’s Company" but John was still able to honor his memory on the show.
In one episode he dropped the following line: “well, you know you have to learn to trot before you can gallop...who said that?”It’s believed he said this line to point to his father’s acting career in so many westerns.
Priscilla Barnes Recalled The Set Being Unpleasant
Priscilla Barnes (who played Terri, one of Chrissy’s replacements) said that the behind-the-scenes set of "Three’s Company" was not enjoyable at all.
Whether it was the tension between the cast and crew or another disturbance to the work environment, she said that she almost left after she started on the show and that her time as Terri was the most miserable of her entire career.
