I am not going to doubt you, but a link to this would be nice. I have seen the Skipper from Gilligan's Island on the original Magnum, but If there was a Three's Company crossover, we would not be merely talking about a Three's company star, but the plots of both shows intersecting. Are you sure you are not talking about a mere guest star?
For example, John Ritter was a a guest character on the original Hawaii Five-0, but Three's Company did not exist at the time. I do not remember any of the characters of Three's Company ever being guest stars on Magnum Pi. But even if they had been, I don't remember the plots/motifs mixing, like the Magnum Pi/Simon & Simon episode did.
Too hard for you? Ok, here’s another one:
In which classic Gilligan’s Island episode did Mr. Dysdale threaten to foreclose the island’s mortgage because of Darrin Steven’s failed ad campaign?
Boru
We are talking about Magnum Pi, not Gilligan's Island. I merely observed over the past couple weeks that the actor who played the Skipper on Gilligan's Island was a guest star on Magnum Pi.
Now you are asserting a Magnum Pi/Three's company crossover, which does not merely mean one actor from a prior show showing up in another show, but means the PLOTS overlap.
"Guest star" does not equal "crossover".
I would not be surprised if one of the actors of "Three's Company" guest stared on the original Magnum Pi. But there was never a plot overlap between the two shows, at least not the original, to my knowlege.
