1987, I was 17. Visiting my aunt in Huntington park calif, Filming of Real Men, starring John Ritter & Jim belushi. During film break, my mom sent me out with a pen and a paper plate to get an autograph. As I was walking opposite of Jim belushi, he gave me a look of disgust, I guess I looked as a peasant to him beneath him or something. Mr. John Ritter on the other hand, as I walked toward him he smiled big at me, welcoming. He said "Hi", I said hello Mr. Ritter, can I get an autograph. He reached for the paper plate & pen I had and said "who's this going to' , I said Rachel & Dan, (me & my mom). With a bigger smile he handed back items, I said thank you and walked back to my aunts house. When my mom read what was on the paper plate, she busted a gut laughing. I grabbed the plate back cause I hadn't read it yet, It said, "To Rachel and Dan, Best Dishes, John Ritter". I'm Fortunate to have Met a Warm Hearted Loving Comedic Gentlemen. R.I.P. Mr. John Ritter. ❤

Draygo, thats very touching and so humble. Henry Winkler is just as kind of a man and made me SUCH a big fan of his after meeting him at a comic-con. The man excused himself from his table while signing for guests and walked down his line of fans greeting EVERY...SINGLE...one of em. He shook the hands of everyone and continued to say, "good meeting you" and "thanks for coming out to see me today." I was blown away. Mad respect to 2 of my favorite actors who show love to those who put em there.

Never heard a bad word about the guy. When asked why ABC gave him several chances at roles, the executive basically said, " He made ABC so much money the company felt they owed him and thankfully offered him other chances at shows and to be honest, everyone at the company loved the guy." How many times have you heard that said? That's a real testimony to whatxa good man he was. I was really upset when he passed.

Funny he’s been so great in all his roles I almost completely forgot about the “Rules” show. I loved that show! ABSOLUTELY cried during that last episode. You could FEEL the grief of the cast throughout the whole thing. It was incredibly heartbreaking and I can’t imagine how that cast got through it. There is no doubt to me he was an incredibly kind human being. A friend of mine and I were eating at a Beverly Hills restaurant for lunch one day and we wondered how the soup was when we noticed it being delivered to a table next to us. Unbeknownst to us it was his soup and he saw us checking out the soup. He then asked us if we wanted to try it and our eyes met his. It hit us suddenly it was John Ritter asking us! We quickly said no no we couldn’t but thank you! He was just beyond lovely and he really tried to get us to try from his bowl but I mean we just couldn’t do that haha. He really was a true gem. I’m so grateful we were able to enjoy him for so many years. He will always be one of my favs. 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽

First day of acting class, 1989, the director asked, "Who is your favorite actor?" Each student took a turn answering... Pacino, De Niro, etc. When it was my turn, I proudly shared that my favorite actor was John Ritter! The director paused and stared at me. Then he asked, "Why?" I explained that I took great inspiration from his physical comedy and nobody delivered a punchline like him! And that smile... oh boy! Unfortunately, I never did get to meet him before his passing, but I did meet his son, Jason (an incredible actor), at Six Flags in GA. I was a bit starstruck... he looks so much like his dad! Something about those Ritters...

John Ritter was a comedic genius and legend! The original cast and plenty of guest stars were also spectacular. John, in my opinion, was the best by far as Jack Tripper. Norman Fell as Stanley Roper would be my second favorite. Three's Company is one of my all-time favorite TV shows. It was back when I was a kid in the late 70s and still is today. I had the pleasure of meeting John Ritter's brother once, and I told him how funny his brother was, and how he used to make my mom laugh out loud. I still think about John Ritter from time to time. Thanks for the laughs, John. RIP Mr. Ritter.

My favorite John Ritter movie is "Skin Deep." Anytime you pair up John with directorial legend Blake Edwards, you can't help but have comedic gold bullion. I'm laughing remembering the scene where he's trying to walk to his car after being given electroshock therapy treatment by Molly (Julianne Phillips). That scene had me in tears the first few times I saw it. And then there's the glow-in-the-dark condom scene...

It was clear watching his pre-"Three's Company" stuff that he was a star in the making, as he grabbed the screen on any show he guested on, regardless of which other actors were in his presence---but he never tried to out-do them, which is a gift. When he reacted to other actors, they reacted to him with the same intensity, like they were feeding off each other in a weird dynamic. Regardless of how big his co-stars were, he brought out the best in them (and the more experienced actors might have realized how good he was and tried harder too).

I have never seen Three's Company but I remember John in The Waltons. I loved 8 Simple Rules and John RItter was great in it. I was shocked when I found out he had died and I think they did a good episode on 8 Simple RUles mourning his character rather than replacing him with someone else as you couldn't replace John. My sister is younger than me and watched the 2000s version of Clifford The Big Red Dog (I had seen the original series) and I saw a few episodes but I never realised at the time that John Ritter was the voice of Clifford.

To be honest, I didn't really watch 3's Company during it's initial run. However, I'm watching it now on Antenna TV and I think it's a BLAST! So much so, I'm "bingeing" on it right now. John was an excellent actor who captured the art of physical comedy to a "T." His dramatic acting skills were on full display in "Slingblade" and once again, he gave an awesome performance. In this life, everyone has a "corner" and John, you represented your "corner" very well. Thank you!

Although I started my sitcom fandom with Different Strokes and Honeymooners ultimately Threes Company became my fav.. It would always be a ritual to record the episodes on vhs and watch round lunchtime.. I’ll never forget a day came where I couldn’t stop thinking of him.. I then looked him up online.. That happened to be the very same day we lost him..

Growing up as a child of the 70s, I had a trifecta of fellas that I worshipped. In baseball (my fave sport) it was Steve Garvey and the Dodgers. In movies, it was Clint Eastwood, and, finally, on TV, it was John Ritter. I can still remember exactly what I was doing when I heard he had died. I swear I was in mourning for at least 6 months and still feel a bit of melancholy every once in a while. RIP Mr. Ritter...😪

Im a DIEHARD fan of this guy and always have been. I can still recall a time n the 80s when i was rushing my grandmother from the drugstore cause i was gonna miss 3s Company. 8 Simple Rules was also a GREAT sitcom, and it woulda put John back on the map for comedy television, but I think I recall Kaley Cuoco saying in an article once, "John told me he had already had his moment to shine in a sitcom series. Its now my turn." (Dont quote me on that word for word) That series was great, but you see it collapsed after John passed away cause he made it what it was and that included his humbleness towards his costars. What a guy. Love and miss this fella.
