I really like this show as a kid. Topics go over many young kids heads along with the jokes, but has slapstick that can keep them entertained. The show's main characters are caring and loving towards one another, but sadly have to lie to stay together. The sexual innendo is pretty mild and the drinking is probably the worst part of the show. Some of the girl cast has flings with bartenders and everybody has some kind of beer at the bar everytime they go. The language isn't strong, mainly mild curse words present.
It is a very funny, light hearted, good natured show. However, it is showing its age, and some of the more decade specific and cheesy stuff is wearing thin. But, it is still very funny, especially specific scenes.
Even though some characters have attitudes that people today would frown upon (Mr. Roper's relationship with Helen for example, in one episode they have a fight over her allowance) they generally have their heart in the right place. Women are objectified, and it should be noted it was written and produced by all men for at least the first few seasons (then one woman writer was added) but despite this intentions are good, and the characters really care for one another.
I think it is the perfect show for young tweens and teens who are just starting to watch shows not aimed specifically at kids.
I'm not allowed to watch it at this age, We're not allowed to watch this show no more until we're 13. This Show should be 13 or 14 and over because this stuff can be inappropriate for 10 year olds.

I can't believe this site "recommends" this show for ages 10+. Jack's message is always "get some, get some" and CommonSense thinks that is ok for ten year olds? My eleven year old is not even allowed to watch this.
e.g. Shut up, idiot! Should be 13 with parental guidance and 14+ alone, but definetly not 8, 9 or 10!
sanford and son is better (because 3's compiny can be a little inappropriate for 12 or 11 year olds and under, it's iffy for 13, on for 14 and over, don't watch this if you're a kid, it's inappropriate to me).

Not for kids. It's a little inappropriate, there is No Violence, the only content is S**, Language and Dr*gs (actually you can say drug, but it probably won't show). It's fine for 13 or 14 and over, but don't take kids. It is bothering me how a lot of people thinking it's a kid show. It's Comedy.
Love this show. I find Mrs. Ropers wardrobe intriging. I also have to marvel at the Beatles poster in Jack's bedroom shown in a few scenes, man I wish I had one of those!
The show does rely on sexual inuendo's and jokes; so I am shocked on the rating CSM has given it.
It's very hard to say anything new about this one. The physical humor and the absurd situations are funny for all ages, the sexual jokes will go over the head of the very young, but the social morality (honesty, faithfulness to friends, and the rest of it) is of the highest order.
Besides, IT IS SO FUNNY!!
