[edit] Three's Company Effect

A Google search reveals only five distinct hits for the phrase "Three's Company Effect". Only two of those hits reference the meaning mentioned in the article. One hit uses the term to reference watching TV shows as an adult that you enjoyed in your youth and discovering that they weren't as great as you remember. The 2nd hit refers to a strategy with a Collectible card game that has no reference whatsoever to the TV show. The third hit links to a 404 notice. As if that weren't enough (and you'd certainly think it would be), Wikipedia is not a dictionary. → Ξxtreme Unction|_{yakkity yak} 16:29, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Decent nomination. You give a good (and humorous) summary of what led you to believe it was deletable, refrained from voting, and pointed to the deletion policy. 9/10. fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 03:45, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
