American fans of the quintessential '70s double-entendre comedy Three's Company might be surprised to learn it was a British import. Yes, the sexy Chrissy and the leering Mr. Roper had their beginnings on the other side of the Atlantic in Man About the House, set in the swinging '70s of London. The laughs are broad and shameless, and as enjoyable as any silly wink-wink-nudge-nudge comedy of the era.

Chrissy (Paula Wilcox) and Jo (Sally Thomsett) need a third roommate for their London flat, and find the perfect one in a passed-out party guest, Robin (Richard O'Sullivan). But landlord Mr. Roper (Brian Murphy) isn't so sure about the setup, so the women tell him Robin's gay ("we told him you were a poof!"), though, naturally, Robin is wildly attracted to both of his roomies. Much of the comedy consists of the trio of roommates keeping up the front for the rest of their building and unexpected guests, workmen, and council authorities.

While some of the humor is dated, the snapshot of the mores of the '70s shows a culture in enormous transition, and the fact that it was able to laugh at itself was a big part of the times, on either side of the Pond. Man About the House lasted six seasons on British TV and spawned two spinoffs in England alone--and, let us not forget, launched the careers of Suzanne Somers and John Ritter in the U.S. Let the hijinks begin! --A.T. Hurley

5.0étoiles sur 5 can't beat the Brits or the original, Oct. 14 2007
far funnier and real then it's american rip off the silly three's company
the wit between man in the middle Robin Tripp
And the smart and sassy Chrissy,
Meanwhile gorgeous and sweet Jo seems queit helpless
without her two roomates

the Ropers do steal the show at times
no team was better with comedic timing then the late great Yootha Joyce(Mildred roper) and her skin flint selfish hubby George played by
Brit television legend Brian Murray
great to see this funny and quick witted show
who's humor has proved timeless now on DVD
I'd love to see more Man About The House
As well as the spin off The Ropers (Even better) on DVD
