The Unknown Story

Gilligan's Island

While only airing for three seasons, Gilligan's Island has one of the most catchy and memorable theme songs ever recorded and the series has taken on a life of its own for decades. We take a close look how the seven castaways secured their place on the island, and made a real impact on pop culture.

I Love Lucy

Not only is I Love Lucy considered to be one of the best sitcoms in history, the forward-thinking of Ball and Arnaz revolutionized how television is made on multiple levels. The story of an inter-cultural married couple, not to mention the world's first pregnancy announcement (and birth) on television is just part of why this sitcom, that premiered 70 years ago, is still relevant today.

Cheers

One of the most beloved sitcoms of the 80s and 90s didn't start off that way – after its 1982 premiere, Cheers was on the chopping block for NBC, as it ranked nearly last in the ratings. Due to a loyal – and growing - fan base, who was eager to see the ups and downs of the first "will they or won't they" couple, Sam and Diane, the series eventually grew to a top-ten certified hit for eight of its 11 seasons. Cheers spent one season at number one and became one of the most popular series in history; its series finale was watched by an estimated 93 million viewers. We take a close and intimate look at the early days of Cheers, the shock and awe of Shelly Long's decision to leave the series during its heyday, the casting of unique and memorable characters, and how Cheers became a true destination for anyone who wanted to go "where everybody knows your name."

Three's Company

"Come and knock on our door" is the first line of the legendary theme song of Three's Company. Even in 2022, you'd be hard-pressed to find someone who is not familiar with the antics of roommates Jack, Janet, and Chrissy. We take a close look at the early days of this 70s and 80s series, the real reason behind Suzanne Somers' controversial and sudden exit, and the blondes who followed in her place as the third roommate. Even after the death of beloved star John Ritter, his physical comedy skills are considered one of the industry's best, as he breathed life into Jack Tripper.
