Did anyone read this new issue of TV Guide's "Cheers and Jeers" section? Under a jeers section it said that the WB show "The Help" made a tasteless joke about John Ritter's death. Not to dwell on this...but does anyone know exactly what the joke was?
Just wondering

Yes , I just saw that. Who would make some joke about his death? You cant really joke around on a TV show when it comes to someones death! And I`d like to know what this " joke " was.

I believe it was "I haven't seen so much fake emotion since the promo's for '8 Simple Rules.' Not directly a joke about John Ritter's death exactly, but pretty tasteless just the same.

Yeah. I guess that's not exactly about his death. They just didn't seem to like the show. But I agree that they should have been more considerate.

That makes me so mad that they would do such a thing, that is such a slap in the face that i like using 9-11 as a laughing matter. People can be so inconsiderate, well pretty soon " the help" will be gone nad it will jsut be a memory. Shame on them!!!!:mad:
