It's pretty clear that they only created this show to cash in on the unimaginable success of Three's Company.The Roper's weren't characters who needed a spin-off.They were just bit players in a below average sitcom, not charismatic superstars.Sadly, The Ropers is basically the exact same show as Three's Company except that the neighbors are married.Every plot/joke is about a misunderstanding.It's lazy writing but why would a good writer want to work on this show?The only bright spot in this sad excuse for a sitcom is the performance of Jeffrey Tambor.Too bad it would be twenty years until he was in a good show.And even worse that FOX cancelled it.Don't watch this show.Trust me.
