Classic television fans were treated to a heartwarming blast from the past this week when Richard Kline, best known as Jack Tripper’s smooth-talking best friend Larry Dallas on Three’s Company, made a rare social media appearance to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the show’s debut.
Looking virtually unrecognizable from his 1970s sitcom days, the 82-year-old star popped up in a new photo supporting the John Ritter Foundation, reminding viewers of the deep, real-life connection the cast shared off-screen. Sporting a sleek, silver hairstyle, mustache, and beard, Kline is helping to raise awareness for aortic health.
The photo was shared by the John Ritter Foundation. They wrote, “Larry’s back, and this time he’s telling the story! We’re thrilled to have original cast member Richard Kline, beloved as Larry Dallas, joining us as narrator for the live staged reading of a Three’s Company episode at Evening from the Heart New York on November 2, benefiting The John Ritter Foundation.

“I would pay big money to watch this live-streamed,” exclaimed a second classic television viewer.
A third fan noted, “This is exciting, and he looks wonderful!”
In a 2013 interview with Pop Speaking, Kline said he “initially auditioned for a guest spot as Larry the used car salesman. The chemistry between John Ritter and myself did not go unnoticed and so they brought me back for more and more spots until I was offered a contract to be a regular the following season.”
Kline is one of five actors who are coming together to perform a live staged reading of an episode of Three’s Company.
In a massive casting update shared on Instagram on October 6, Jason Biggs was revealed to take on John Ritter’s iconic role of Jack Tripper in an upcoming revival. Joining him is Christine Taylor, who steps into the shoes of Chrissy Snow, the unforgettable character made famous by the late Suzanne Somers.
Bellamy Taylor will play Janet Wood, first portrayed by Joyce DeWitt. Finally, Richard Kind will play Mr. Roper. Norman Fell originated the role.
Other stops include Dallas, Cleveland, and Los Angeles. It has not been revealed if the same cast will perform at each stop.
