WTF ?????

That is awful...

Huge fan of this man, He paved the way for Physical comedic sitcom characters like Kramer.Very sad.

Seems like all the greats are passing away...Charles Bronson, Robert Stack, Gregory Hines, Bob Hope, Katherine Hepburn ...Awful.But we all have to go sometimes.

I wonder what will happen with "8 Simple Rules..."

(CNN) -- Actor and comedian John Ritter has died unexpectedly after he was rushed to the hospital for a "dissection of the aorta," his publicist Lisa Kasteler told CNN.

Ritter, who would have turned 55 next week, was the star of the ABC series "8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter."

Jaydawg · 09-12-2003, 07:20 AM

He was one of my favorite people in Hollywood. '8 Simple Rules' was awesome and 'Stay Tuned' was one of my alltime favorite movies to watch

bleh

Grindie · 09-12-2003, 07:24 AM

John Ritter was class... wait, maybe i'm mixed up a bit. He is the guy that was in IT and Problem Child, right?

sabin26 · 09-12-2003, 07:26 AM

Yeah I heard this morning on the Radio that he died. '8 Simple Rules' was a great show and 'Stay Tuned' was great. Don't forgets 'Problem Child'.

R.I.P. John.....you will be missed.

teewee1432 · 09-12-2003, 07:39 AM

yes

teewee1432 · 09-12-2003, 07:44 AM

I am really saddened by this. I was a big fan of him and his work. Just yesterday I was at a critics screening for the new fall television show season and I was hyped up about watching the 2nd season of 8 simple rules because that is one of my favorite shows. But with his sudden death who knows the fait of the show and cliffod the big red dog in which he also provided the voice.

R.I.P.

dr_evil · 09-12-2003, 07:44 AM

man this is really sad news

teewee1432 · 09-12-2003, 07:46 AM

I fell your pain dr.evil.

**Coming Soon!** · 09-12-2003, 08:02 AM

The two John Ritter threads have been combined. This is indeed a very sad day.

sabin26 · 09-12-2003, 08:05 AM

I just remembered that John Ritter was in probably the most horrifying mini series for everybody when we were little............IT

sniktawt · 09-12-2003, 08:10 AM

Let's not forget Three's Company, The series that made him.

I thought he was great in Bride Of Chucky as well.His Son, Jason Ritter was in Freddy VS. Jason Right ?

sniktawt · 09-12-2003, 08:13 AM

I wonder if 8 Simple Rules will still be produced...When Redd Foxx died in 1991 his show the Royal Family continued but it's not the same.

Terrible news.Very sad day indeed.

sabin26 · 09-12-2003, 08:17 AM

I don't think they could pull the show off without him. Look what happened to Newsradio after Hartman's death. It wasn't as good.

dr_evil · 09-12-2003, 08:19 AM

yeah i dont think it will continue

i wonder what it is like on the set there today
it must be horrible

and the sad thing is that that show was a really big hit

and there is no way they can continue

because the dad was the main chartacter

Kris Hodgson · 09-12-2003, 09:49 AM

Really shocking. I had to read the article twice just to comprehend it. I still can't believe it though.
