0:02 welcome everyone out of the woo here the
0:02 sun is just now rising over the greater
0:05 los angeles area where i will be
0:07 traversing to quite a few different
0:09 spots
0:10 trying to procure all the different
0:13 filming locations
0:14 of my favorite sitcom of all time
0:17 three's company based
0:19 in santa monica and what better place to
0:22 begin
0:22 than here at the pier i'm inviting you
0:26 to join me something i've been wanting
0:27 to do for quite some time and now
0:29 it's happening i'm inviting you to join
0:32 me
0:33 shall you wanted to get here at this
0:36 time frame
0:36 just to enjoy a little quietness
0:40 these will be taking place a little out
0:42 of sequence
0:50 oh yeah all of this looks so familiar
0:50 from that show that started in 1977
0:54 and went through 84. eight full seasons
0:58 the buildings on that shoreline could be
1:00 seen
1:01 in the fourth and fifth seasons
1:05 in the trio walked right along here
1:08 starting in that direction at the
1:11 beginning of
1:12 those intros heading that way and then
1:15 back again
1:17 got the logo there across the screen i
1:20 always like to look for
1:21 little items like the top of the
1:23 carousel there
1:24 and the buildings they were walking past
1:29 this address 3-2-0
1:32 i'll get back to you in a minute but you
1:34 can see off in the distance there
1:36 is there that little protrusion up in
1:39 the air
1:45 still there that's it back then
1:45 this establishment was called the
1:48 beachcomber it was here for many years
1:50 a new paint job a couple of the other
1:52 structures have been torn down
1:54 but notice this one in the distance
1:56 there
1:57 the one that's just popping up that is
2:00 still there
2:01 although now now painted blue
2:08 when they went in and got the three
2:09 t-shirts
2:11 and they walked out it was through these
2:14 very doors
2:15 here at 320. address still the same
2:18 even though the building looks a little
2:19 different as stated on the signage
2:22 three two zero and
2:25 three two zero
2:36 that's so dang cool i always just assume
2:39 they had those made and those
2:41 those shirts really were sold inside
2:45 there because there was
2:46 one dangling on the front of it now
2:49 enticing people to come in to purchase
2:51 them
2:55 they probably went in and said hey make
2:55 these for us and they did
2:58 and then they walked off with their new
3:01 merchandise that way
3:03 when the carnival games were being
3:04 played it happened just over here where
3:07 this
3:08 building now stands the way i figured
3:11 that out was
3:12 based on this photo through another
3:14 stage of its development
3:15 another new paint job but over here
3:19 you will see the carnival games and you
3:21 kind of see this little
3:23 design on the wood pattern right there
3:27 which leads me to believe
3:31 that they were right there in this spot
3:35 of course that you know that new
3:36 building has been placed there since
3:38 i found some info showing that the games
3:41 were in a horseshoe pattern starting
3:43 going against that wall and then
3:46 blocking the parking over there you can
3:47 park on this pier
3:49 but it went across and then down
3:53 this direction so where chrissy
3:56 had her eyes blocked and still knock
3:59 down
4:01 all the items would have been down here
4:05 directly against the side of what was
4:08 the beach comber
4:09 down there against that
4:12 to give a little more perspective
4:28 above where that heavy machinery is
4:28 that lines up even though there's some
4:30 new there's some new buildings
4:32 but it lines up of course they were out
4:35 in the water
4:36 on a sailboat over way over there
4:45 so it's a little bit of a different
4:45 angle but they were on a sailboat out
4:48 in the ocean as shown here notice on the
4:50 far end
4:53 they're very very tall
5:02 office building right there
5:02 that's the one on the same end
5:05 they obviously had two boats one for the
5:07 crew and one for the cast
5:09 zoomed way in on joyce
5:12 and what's over her shoulder is the one
5:16 just in front of the mountain range
5:20 right about there that's it looking from
5:23 the camera's direction which would have
5:25 been over there
5:26 this one confused me a bit this that was
5:29 on the pier
5:30 is no longer here and it used to sit
5:33 right there just to the side of the
5:37 playland arcade in that empty spot in
5:39 the middle there playland arcade
5:42 a lot of repurposing has taken place
5:51 there it is the arcade
5:51 in the middle and that empty section
5:53 over to its side
5:58 oh there's also another beachcomber this
5:58 is marlene's beachcomber
6:00 not to be confused with the three's
6:01 company beachcomber
6:03 which is just a few feet down the other
6:06 direction of
6:07 of the pier this is the newer
6:09 beachcomber
6:10 and the one from the intro is right down
6:14 past the end of the trail route 66 on
6:17 and just to confirm my thoughts
6:19 there is a placard here designating
6:21 sinbads
6:28 right there sinbads which means
6:28 oh there are some familiar items bumper
6:31 cars
6:32 next to sin bads so sin bads
6:36 here next to the arcade
6:39 stretching to about there which means
6:42 the bumper cars
6:43 would have been right there
6:49 little ambiance from the seagulls
6:53 and some construction that's taking
7:08 when jack tripper played by john ritter
7:08 he's cruising around
7:09 on the bumper cars and notices
7:13 notices a very attractive female loses
7:16 control
7:16 and bumps into the side
7:20 more or less would have been right
7:21 around here
7:23 bumped into that and then gave that look
7:25 at the camera
7:26 and i found something interesting the
7:28 number of the bumper car
7:30 and the design next to janet
7:39 that john is driving is number 23
7:39 and see the flowery pattern there
7:43 now here's something here's a little
7:44 side note i found out that kind of blows
7:46 my mind a little
7:47 clint eastwood in every which way but
7:50 loose
7:51 there was a scene in in the same spot
7:55 in the same bumper car number 23
7:58 same floral pattern all right here
8:03 so a little tie-in three's company
8:06 and clint eastwood wonder whatever
8:08 happened to that car hopefully not in a
8:12 junkyard somewhere
8:14 here's an angle looking out towards the
8:16 water
8:17 you see the beach there under the canopy
8:21 that would have been
8:22 directly above me looking that way
8:26 oh yeah everyone just frolicking right
8:29 in here
8:34 having a great time a lot of history
8:34 here at this pier seeing a lot of
8:36 changes
8:37 it's always fun to pinpoint these spots
8:40 for many years visiting out here i was
8:43 always mistaken on where
8:45 lana tripped jack up i thought it was up
8:48 near
8:49 the front of the pier but in reality
8:53 it was right here against this pole
8:56 and the bubba gump shrimp company down
8:59 used to be a place called the boathouse
9:02 as
9:03 shown here
9:09 and you'll see that right behind where
9:09 he's falling
9:10 is a pole there are three poles from the
9:13 boathouse so look at the boathouse use
9:15 that as your coordinates one
9:16 two three a bench on the side of
9:20 the third pole lining it up one two
9:23 three the trio walking past here
9:26 lana sticks out her foot
9:30 trips up john ritter who falls down upon
9:34 another frame you see the holiday inn
9:36 and the distance there and a clear view
9:37 of that pole
9:39 it's no longer a holiday end but you can
9:42 see it still down there
9:44 and they've added a few electrical
9:45 outlets
9:47 and whatnot to it but it's the same
9:48 design down towards that end a lot
9:51 it's considerably different a storm
9:55 demolished a lot of this thankfully
9:58 from here towards the end
10:01 is more or less the same with some new
10:03 there's some new establishments
10:05 popping in and taking over you just have
10:07 to have a little imagination and some
10:09 clues
10:11 to figure out where everything was
10:18 this is a good time to be here
10:29 can always use the bridge overpass there
10:29 it's a good frame of reference there's
10:31 still a seafood place here
10:33 as well even though the name has changed
10:47 right at the end a very historic
10:47 building
10:48 the merry-go-round that's the same thing
10:49 as a carousel
10:57 who could forget how he was just kind of
10:57 had one foot on either horse and then
11:00 furley over here on the other end
11:03 you know very afraid clinching on
11:06 tightly
11:07 they've also placed uh placard here it's
11:09 put on the national register of historic
11:11 places
11:12 back in 87 it's also gone through
11:16 quite a bit of refurbishment over time
11:20 so much in fact that it's nearly
11:22 impossible to figure out
11:24 which of the horses they sat on
11:27 repainted
11:28 taken apart moved to another facility
11:31 cleaned up
11:32 then brought back but it's still here
11:35 just in a lot better shape than it was
11:37 way back then
11:38 you can picture them circling around on
11:40 this thing
11:42 just always forever etched in my mind
11:48 i kind of feel like a lot of it was just
11:48 on the spot
11:50 they said let's just go down there and
11:52 see what we can get they
11:54 did the arcade games the carousel
12:01 bought the t-shirts all that probably
12:01 wasn't planned i mean
12:02 they probably had a general idea but
12:04 didn't know what they were going to go
12:05 home with
12:18 not too far from the waterfront is
12:18 the old king's head british pub
12:22 one of the two spots that was used
12:26 as inspiration for the regal beagle
12:29 just getting a little peek in the window
12:31 here and get the
12:33 layout of what it looks like inside
12:36 obviously nothing took place on the show
12:38 inside here
12:39 it was just just used as inspiration
12:43 this in another spot about a half a mile
12:46 down the way
12:47 and the other is the shay jay
12:50 seafood place all depends on who you
12:53 talk to the combination of both spots
12:56 or one or the other the regal beagle
13:00 this is how it was thought of this is
13:02 what they were thinking of when they
13:03 created that that play the hangout spot
13:07 about a mile and a half down the way
13:10 technically in venice beach is where
13:12 the first three seasons the bike riding
13:15 scenes took place on that path right
13:16 over there well i gotta go down about
13:18 another
13:18 100 yards or so realize i misjudged the
13:22 distance it's more than 100 yards
13:24 probably
13:26 probably about a quarter mile from where
13:28 i parked
13:30 kind of getting close up to where the
13:31 skatepark is not quite but heading down
13:33 towards
13:34 where the skatepark is as the story goes
13:37 they perched up on top of the roof
13:40 to get this angle what i'm looking at is
13:44 right over there where that little turn
13:46 is
13:47 so i'm thinking maybe this roof or
13:50 perhaps
13:50 even that one over there to get the
13:53 bird's eye perspective
13:55 as they look down on
13:58 when he cruised the bike over into the
14:01 sand it was
14:02 right at this bend there
14:05 you can see you know obviously i'd have
14:07 to be probably another
14:09 100 or 200 feet up in the air but that's
14:11 it you see the
14:13 the pier the venice beach pier off in
14:16 the distance
14:18 so santa monica pier that way
14:22 corner of wave crest ab
14:26 looking that way towards venice beach
14:29 these little gazebo sections are still
14:32 now painted green they're still in the
14:35 same
14:36 the same spot most likely the same same
14:40 shingles and stanchions in those
14:43 palm trees have grown considerably
14:46 perspective of
14:47 him on the bike and zipping through
14:51 right about here gets distracted
14:55 falls over into the sand right there fun
14:57 fact
14:59 the female that was approaching him was
15:01 in fact suzanne summers
15:03 and she was how she had a wig on you
15:05 would never know that that was her
15:06 and the end result was him taking a
15:09 tumble
15:10 right there in the sand
15:19 classic there are two possible angles
15:19 that this could have been where
15:21 the whole group is riding down maybe
15:23 possibly this could have been
15:25 one option and speaking of two options
15:28 i'm going to i'm going to stand
15:29 corrected because i believe
15:31 this is the appropriate spot
15:35 just down to the next turn in
15:39 because in the aerial you see a
15:41 structure down there
15:44 and just the embankment of the way
15:47 you know the way the sand is
15:50 ground level to the sidewalk
15:54 this is where he was riding the bike
15:56 gosh they look almost identical
16:00 but i'm gonna i'm gonna say park ave
16:02 east
16:03 and these here
16:10 are those and the other
16:10 the difference between the other spot is
16:12 there is a facility that's been built
16:14 that you would have seen right there
16:17 where in this frame it's just off
16:21 to that side not in that section
16:25 which is down the beach where i was a
16:27 moment ago and the light poles are also
16:29 a giveaway there are three of them in
16:31 frame
16:31 two down there by the seating area and
16:34 one closest to the turn in here by where
16:37 the sidewalk is
16:38 meaning right there oh watch out don't
16:41 you don't want to fall in the sand
16:43 when it comes to the bend in the
16:44 sidewalk here where
16:46 the trio is all riding what the two
16:49 girls on a tandem bike
16:51 and tripper on his own i believe this is
16:53 it with the camera facing
16:56 that way with those buildings there
16:59 in the distance and the way i think
17:00 that's is because there is another
17:01 sidewalk that kind of
17:03 turns off and that we can be seen barely
17:05 in the bottom of the frame
17:07 right there so we're looking at if i was
17:09 standing over in that section
17:12 looking that way all in the same general
17:15 vicinity
17:16 well over four decades can really you
17:19 know a lot of other
17:20 a lot of other construction can pop up
17:22 but there are a few
17:24 a few buildings back there that that
17:27 sort of
17:27 line up gosh what has it been 43
17:32 years since the first episode give or
17:35 take
17:35 it's a good idea big the foot head over
17:37 to the apartment
17:38 i don't think they're waiting for you i
17:41 know the kisses are hers and hers and
17:43 his but they don't live there anymore
17:46 you're going to knock on their door they
17:49 might be
17:49 the new owners might be frightened nice
17:52 little mural there on the side of a
17:54 surfer
18:08 this is what it looked like during the
18:08 opening sequence the credits at the
18:10 beginning of the first
18:11 few seasons we got the ropers and then
18:14 later mr furley living down below
18:16 and then jack janet chrissy up top and
18:18 then later cindy snow moved in and then
18:21 terry larry would come over to visit
18:24 it all happened right there through
18:39 that's amazing this is
18:39 incredible to see this in real life
18:43 i'm not gonna go knock on their door
18:44 like big the foot was but
18:46 it's cool to see obviously all exteriors
18:49 no
18:50 interiors there were no sound stages or
18:52 any scenes took place in there
18:55 but that's it right over that those
18:57 hedges from the shoreline gonna make my
18:59 way over to 7800 beverly boulevard it's
19:01 only about 11 miles
19:03 according to this it'll take 24 minutes
19:06 the second through sixth season were
19:08 filmed here at cbs television
19:10 city off fairfax
19:13 season two through six here's what the
19:16 entrance looked like
19:18 back during those times very similar
19:21 see a little more retro vehicles in the
19:23 parking lot however
19:25 the tickets
19:28 that you would have been given would
19:30 have resembled this
19:36 be pretty cool to own one of those or to
19:36 attend a taping
19:42 that'd be a good souvenir to have all
19:42 the interiors during those years took
19:44 place on studio 31.
19:47 i think i like about the show a lot is
19:49 how quickly the pace was
19:52 it is said that they would start
19:53 recording you know they would show up on
19:55 monday and get the script and then
19:57 practice throughout the week and then
19:58 when the studio audience arrived at the
20:00 end of the week
20:01 they would do an entire taping in about
20:03 an hour
20:05 less for for a 24-minute show
20:09 yeah the commercials in so it was almost
20:12 like a play of sorts they had it all
20:14 practiced out
20:16 they wouldn't even go back to their
20:17 dressing rooms to change outfits
20:19 they would do it on the set on a little
20:22 makeshift dressing area
20:24 while the other scenes were taking place
20:27 it shows in the final product on how
20:29 quick how quick everything moves
20:31 a few years ago i was able to attend
20:33 another production
20:35 inside studio city and afterwards was
20:38 able to wander around got a little bit
20:40 of a
20:41 impromptu tour and was able to go into
20:44 in the studio stage 31 i got to see
20:48 the dressing rooms i got to see where it
20:50 is now used
20:51 or at the time when i was in there a
20:53 couple years ago for the sets from bold
20:55 and the beautiful the
20:56 soap opera but just seeing the area
20:59 where
20:59 all those interiors took place was it's
21:02 like almost like being on sacred ground
21:06 33 and 31 are right next to each other
21:08 you can see how they have the
21:10 seats there set up looking into where
21:12 the set would
21:13 have been these are some photos i took
21:17 inside there's the stage 31 door slides
21:20 open and closed
21:22 it's where all the magic happened and up
21:23 here this is as you're entering in it's
21:26 up on the second level there's a
21:27 staircase
21:29 it goes up to the dressing rooms now it
21:32 wasn't there's no confirmation of this
21:33 that that was them but
21:35 i would i would just assume that is
21:37 where the cast
21:38 were going in you know we're preparing
21:40 each day and as stated
21:42 they were changing the outfits between
21:44 scenes
21:45 on the set you know just out just out of
21:48 but at the beginning of the day at the
21:50 end of the day they use these these
21:52 dressing rooms
21:54 and then there's actually it shows all
21:55 four you got stage studio 41 and 43
21:58 but up top in that corner studio 31
22:02 and one of my favorites i am knocking on
22:06 the door
22:08 hey i had to of studio 31.
22:12 they were waiting for me i always really
22:14 enjoyed the show
22:15 this book is this book is a a good read
22:18 for
22:18 it's like a little behind the scenes a
22:20 step by step of the account well
22:22 no pun intended when it comes to suzanne
22:25 but just you know some of the things
22:27 that happened leading up to
22:29 the completion and and through the show
22:31 itself
22:37 i learned a lot from this a lot going on
22:38 in this
22:38 in these pages this is the second of the
22:40 dvd sets
22:41 that i've owned over the years the first
22:43 came out in the early 2000s
22:45 and they weren't all released in in one
22:47 box out of all
22:49 all the different seasons you could only
22:50 get one by one so i ended up getting
22:52 season one then a couple months later
22:54 season two
22:55 three four and then after a couple years
22:58 all eight seasons were out
22:59 back in 2015 i purchased this not sure
23:02 when it was released
23:04 but i got so in early 2000 started
23:07 with the first episode made it all the
23:09 way to the last i watched in
23:11 precise order and then i did that again
23:13 in 2015. so i watched every
23:15 show including the pilots at least twice
23:19 in order and then i have my favorites
23:22 that i've watched like 10 or 15 times
23:24 i'll throw certain ones that i really
23:26 really enjoy and then of course reruns
23:28 that i watched when i was younger and
23:30 then older so
23:31 yeah i have a pretty good handle on on
23:33 the
23:35 on the show itself just about a mile
23:38 away
23:38 is the location of where some other
23:41 former studios were that they used for
23:43 the first season and the last couple
23:45 it's ending up being a little farther
23:47 than a mile i was i was wrong on the
23:49 coordinates
23:50 i had to make a quick pit stop here
23:52 check out this mural inside of hollywood
23:54 high
24:01 nice there's john up there
24:01 all his glory
24:09 at the cross streets of van ness avenue
24:09 57 100 west block of sunset boulevard
24:23 there used to be metro media square
24:23 the first and second to last and
24:28 final season where i'll film the
24:30 interiors
24:31 on a sound set well multiple sound
24:33 stages but one of them was utilized
24:35 all the sound stages used to sit right
24:38 here
24:39 this is a satellite view looking back
24:43 before it was demolished here at the
24:45 corner
24:58 also said there were two episodes from
24:58 season four
25:00 they were also taped here they moved the
25:03 sets over
25:04 from cbs from fairfax
25:08 to this spot because there's their
25:11 production facility during those two
25:12 weeks where it's being utilized by
25:14 something else
25:15 so you had to move all the sets from
25:17 there over to here
25:18 a few miles
25:27 i don't know what that noise was just
25:27 got to let it sink in that this is where
25:29 the curtain call was the final moments
25:37 an ending an ending that could have been
25:37 done differently
25:39 it segued into the the spin-off show
25:44 just like the original counterpart that
25:47 three's company was based on
25:49 overseas did the same thing just like
25:51 the ropers left
25:53 there was a spin-off on that other show
25:57 as well very interesting how it all kind
26:01 of followed the same formula
26:03 even though it was different in a lot of
26:21 as some would have hoped i i am of the
26:21 opinion that
26:22 maybe that's how it should have
26:24 concluded
26:31 but the roommates all stood here
26:31 looked back
26:34 at the half empty apartment some of the
26:38 furniture was left but all their
26:40 possessions were gone
26:43 turn the lights off and close the door
26:57 it is almost fitting that the first you
26:57 know
26:57 to start on january 28 1977 the third
27:01 pilot there were two other pilots
27:03 beforehand with a different array of
27:05 cast
27:06 get to that in a minute i'm going to
27:08 head over to the exterior of
27:10 the apartment from the pilot episode
27:14 which it exists
27:18 it's worth watching but it's it's
27:21 definitely different
27:22 than what we have gotten used to that
27:25 was that took place right here
27:27 in 77 and then eight years later the
27:29 final episode
27:32 at this field it's almost fitting to
27:35 start
27:35 and end at the same spot even though
27:37 most of the years
27:38 we're over on fairfax walking down
27:41 fountain avenue it's tough to find
27:43 parking in this area on the corner of
27:45 ardmore
27:47 avenue the cross streets
27:50 right up here is the hacienda palms
28:15 this is a deep cut i know but this would
28:15 have been where they lived had the pi
28:17 this pilot had been successful was no
28:21 chrissy it was samantha and was no
28:25 janet it was jenny in fact
28:28 even though played by the same actor
28:30 there was no jack
28:32 only david john ritter
28:36 has david slightly different font
28:39 used for the logo as well
28:49 these hedges have grown up and they have
28:49 placed this little
28:50 concrete formation with these cinder
28:52 blocks here
28:59 the hacienda palm sign would have been
29:00 right up there
29:07 notice the shingles over the windows
29:07 there and the little drainage
29:09 areas up there those are all still there
29:14 as well even modern day
29:22 and this is parked out front interesting
29:22 to note during that episode
29:24 the theme song had no words they just it
29:26 just kind of was hummed
29:28 just the fashion of the the words had
29:31 not been written yet
29:33 also the same gentleman that wrote the
29:35 sesame street theme
29:38 pro 3's company thing a brand new comedy
29:41 from the producers of the jeffersons and
29:43 all in the family
29:45 this is what a ticket would have looked
29:47 like from the first spot
29:49 seating time 7 15 show started at 8 8 to
29:52 9.
29:54 see less than an hour to do an entire
29:56 episode
29:58 that's moving it made it over onto the
30:02 back side of griffith park
30:03 towers up there is the hollywood side
30:08 on the the other side of the hill this
30:11 is in the same general vicinity of the
30:13 la zoo
30:14 which i'm heading for the last of the
30:17 full
30:18 three intros from seasons six seven and
30:22 eight
30:23 it's in the same neighborhood as seemed
30:26 only fitting to swing by
30:29 and there's a beatles quote and in the
30:31 end the love you take is equal to the
30:33 love you make
30:35 he's a big beatles fan in fact
30:38 he ended up having a poster
30:42 of the beatles put above the bed in the
30:45 set
30:46 you see that in quite a few episodes
30:49 and he did some interviews with with
30:51 john
30:52 around the time the the popularity of
30:54 the show and he when
30:56 he had heard that some of the members of
31:00 the beatles had seen the episodes and
31:02 were
31:03 we're really into his work and he was
31:05 humbled by that
31:06 i never got to meet him in person would
31:09 have liked to said hello
31:11 shaking his hand in reality you never
31:15 really know
31:16 someone that you would watch on
31:17 television or in movies or
31:20 you know anywhere you never know if
31:22 they're going to be the same person that
31:24 you think they might be but
31:25 after watching a lot of interviews
31:27 reading a lot of things
31:28 and even even seeing the things he
31:31 started
31:32 really seemed like his personality and
31:34 the type of person came out and a lot of
31:36 that so i feel like
31:37 i feel like we would have gotten along i
31:39 don't who knows you never you never
31:42 if someone's work is is going to
31:44 transcend into how
31:46 how they are but i feel like that was
31:48 the case i did however get to meet joyce
31:50 dewitt a few years ago we had a very
31:52 long conversation
31:54 about three's company and how her
31:57 and john how i i told her that they were
31:59 those two were the glue that held
32:01 the series together i don't think it
32:04 would have gone
32:05 on and been as popular if it was not for
32:08 the camaraderie and the melding of those
32:11 two characters
32:12 between jack tripper and janet wood
32:15 it was just it was just too good how it
32:18 just flowed through
32:19 cast members you know they come and go
32:23 but they were they were the staple that
32:24 held everything together she gave me a
32:26 big hug she was very kind
32:28 got a photograph and and then after we
32:31 were about to depart
32:33 and she said that i remind her in a lot
32:35 of ways
32:36 of john ritter which is a huge
32:38 compliment
32:40 it was a bit it was a big compliment for
32:42 her to say that i was like kind of taken
32:43 aback by it
32:44 to hear that from from joyce okay
32:48 i digress move on i almost don't even
32:51 know what's going on at this moment
32:52 the look on my face like what is
32:55 happening right now
33:02 that's great i must admit this is my
33:02 first time ever setting foot in the los
33:04 angeles zoo i do know the entire front
33:08 facade the whole entry point has been
33:10 completely redone once i set foot inside
33:13 i'll kind of show the general area but
33:14 this is what it looked like here
33:16 this is a wide angle and this is a
33:18 close-up as they're going up the
33:19 the final amount of steps all this rock
33:22 work
33:22 as far as i know it's probably going to
33:24 be completely removed all this looks
33:26 totally different i was looking at some
33:27 satellite views and it appears as if all
33:29 that down there was newly added
33:32 and the part that the cast walked in
33:34 would have been right through here
33:36 and then panning up that waterway would
33:38 have been there
33:39 notice that tree there on the top of the
33:41 hill above furley's head just
33:43 just over his shoulder as they're
33:45 walking up i believe
33:46 it is that tree well i'm gonna focus
33:49 right in the middle
33:50 so it's grown up quite a bit but the
33:52 angle would have been like that
33:54 oh my goodness this flamingo
33:58 is as excited as i am he was tap dancing
34:00 in the mud
34:01 and now they're just all they are all
34:06 okay he's back to tap dancing in the mud
34:08 there so he's got the
34:15 little tap dancing happening but what i
34:15 am fascinated by
34:17 yes it this is incredible
34:20 the rock work back there
34:24 behind where terry was standing is
34:27 exactly the same
34:28 all these years later pretty much sums
34:31 it up
34:32 right there is the rock formation in
34:35 question see how it kind of angles
34:37 upward
34:39 and there are some very distinct little
34:41 boulders in there
34:42 and that right there are that's the same
34:46 okay pay no attention to the tap dancing
34:48 flamingo in the mud
34:50 we're trying to focus on three's company
34:51 spots here you're being very distracting
34:54 but it's it's almost fascinating it's
34:56 just like
34:57 a little tap dancing on the
35:04 from the mud dang that is so cool
35:04 that is that's just amazing to think
35:07 about
35:08 right when i think of threes company
35:11 this is
35:12 one of the images i always think any zoo
35:14 i go to or any
35:16 anything that has flamingos i always
35:18 will reference this
35:19 and this is the very spot
35:23 still doing a little tap dancing in the
35:25 mud currently this exhibit
35:27 is closed but captioning not available
35:45 an example of what i'm referring to is
35:48 right here
35:49 you can see they look faintly but there
35:51 is the little
35:52 drainage area there which really isn't
35:54 used for drainage it's so the
35:56 it's so the lion does not leap over
35:59 towards this fence
36:01 but furley was right there
36:10 right there making those faces
36:10 this is more or less the the angle
36:14 of where it was right there almost
36:17 13 feet tall well gosh
36:20 yeah that went off in the distance
36:22 there's probably 14 feet tall
36:24 this is where cindy was standing
36:36 went into the cindy years huh yeah i
36:36 gotcha
36:37 could have been a chain link fence here
36:40 this is where
36:40 jack kind of flipped over and
36:44 chimpanzees were in the in the distance
36:47 there were some out but i believe
36:49 they're being fed now
36:51 best guess would be that the chain-link
36:54 fence that he ends up
36:56 flipping back over was right there and
36:59 in that frame there is a waterfall in
37:01 the distance however
37:03 you don't really see how extended upward
37:05 it is
37:07 so i'm not 100 on this one but this is
37:09 the only area
37:11 that has the chimpanzees
37:21 and again this is 40 way well over 40 or
37:21 over four decades ago
37:23 things are things are changed
37:25 considerably over time
37:27 looking at this elephant now
37:30 hello there elephant
37:39 this section is also different from when
37:39 janet and larry are taking the photos
37:41 and they back up and larry realizes
37:44 he's face to face with an elephant's
37:46 trunk
37:48 i'd hope to find this embankment there
37:51 but
37:51 it's no longer in existence or it's not
37:54 in public view
37:55 so i don't see it anywhere obviously
37:58 this whole courtyard has been completely
38:00 redone but a little bit of the past
38:03 still remains over here the reason i'm
38:04 showing this
38:05 is because the entryway used to be lined
38:08 with these from when they're walking in
38:11 notice the rock formations they're all
38:14 the same type of rocks these used to
38:15 stretch
38:16 all through the entire property and
38:18 there's still some
38:19 back here that matches up and proves
38:22 that those
38:22 rocks were also up front at that point
38:25 at least out of all the options and
38:29 places i want to see inside this
38:32 property
38:32 this one still exists
38:36 if i had to choose one of them that i'm
38:37 glad still around
38:39 it's the flamingos pot i mean the other
38:42 ones are around too but they've just
38:43 been
38:44 adapted a little bit and changed a
38:46 little bit over time
38:48 the shuttle was also not operating the
38:50 tram that takes you around
38:52 the whole property they did the outro
38:55 twice
38:56 which leads me to believe it was the
38:57 same day because it's the same driver
39:00 same vehicle but you'll notice there are
39:02 six in the back here
39:04 including cindy and then the next season
39:08 the outro no cindy just the five of them
