THE DOPERS
Sick #129, October 1979
a: Jack Sparling

Short-lived sitcom of the landlords from Three's Company moving out and getting their own apartment. Stanley (Norman Fell) and Helen Roper (Audra Lindley) lived next door to Jeffrey (Jeffrey Tambor) and Anne Brookes (Patricia McCormack) and their precocious son David (Evan Cohen).

A running joke throughout the show (and previously in Three's Company) was that Helen was eternally sexually frustrated.

The building's hot tub was the shows excuse for the Ropers and the Brookses to interact.
