Thanks to their parts in the television series *Three’s Company*, which ran in the late 1970s and early 1980s, Suzanne Somers and Joyce DeWitt rose to fame. Three roommates—two ladies and one man—were seen on the show living together and finding themselves in amusing situations as a result of miscommunications.

Janet Wood, portrayed by Joyce DeWitt, was a conscientious and astute roommate who frequently found solutions to issues that Chrissy and Jack brought about. “Janet was intelligent, responsible, and frequently had to solve the problems that Chrissy and their other roommate, Jack, got into,” the original report stated.

Joyce, who was born in West Virginia on April 23, 1949, studied acting in college and went on to become a professional actress.

Her tenure on *Three’s Company* lasted until 1984. After that, she carried on performing in TV movies and stage plays, but she didn’t stay in the spotlight as much as Suzanne Somers did.

Even though her career was quieter, *Three’s Company* fans still like Joyce.
