John Cleese was apparently quite happy for the 3rd season to air but Connie Booth was adamant that it would never be shown.
Yes, interesting... but completely untrue, I'm afraid.

Hell, Cleese and Booth were already divorced by the time the second series was made.

There was allegedly ONE episode filmed but unaired, due to production issues rather than creative disputes. However, even this is unfounded.
