Starsky and Hutch
(1978), Kojak (1978), and Taxi (1980). Barnes
gained fame as Suzanne Somers replacement on Three's Company,
where her character (the level-headed, no-nonsense nurse Terri
Alden) was the polar opposite of Somers' bubbly and buxom
Chrissy Snow. Barnes joined the cast in 1981 and was there
until the series ended in 1984. After Three's Company
Barnes' career remained fairly steady, with regular TV and
film roles including Licensed to Kill (1989), The
Crossing Guard (1995), Mallrats (1995), Mumford
(1999), and cult-film The Devils Rejects(2005). |
