Hi guys,

Just thought I'd share with you my new Retroality.TV blog in which I break news about John Ritter's initial reaction to Suzanne's cancer admission during her liposuction fiasco in 2001:

My good friend Pavan says he'll be blogging about this story soon (thanks, Pavan, news blogger extraordinaire!), but I also wanted to share this link with you personally. It would mean a great deal to me if any of you guys would visit my blog and share your thoughts by posting a comment after this piece about Suzanne and John. Whatever your opinion is, I welcome your voice on my blog!

Also, fyi, my blog is also an "Editor's Pick" at Open Salon:

Chris, it was terrific. You impressed me once again. You know when you quoted John all I could feel was him. I felt the hurt in just the written words; I literally cried when I read what he had to say. God bless his sweet soul.

Just thought I would add my 2 cents or maybe its only worth one cent now with the economy, I like Suzanne, but she has a habit of revisionist history, the other day when she appeared on "The Wendy Williams Show" they talked briefly about "Three's" and she told the story as she regretted being fired but she said she was fired because she wanted the same salary as all her male co-stars. Which was true BUT I'm the first to say, she did deserve the raise and should have made the same money as Ritter by the 5th season.....but we all know how she handled it, not showing up for work, etc...trying to change her already signed contract.....she should have asked for more money when her intial contract expired, etc. She didn't consider her co-stars, especially Joyce Dewitt......it's just everytime I see an interview with Suzanne I get that "something isn't right" here feeling.

Great article, Chris!! I HOPE Suzanne Somers wouldn't be so callous as to fake having cancer and discouraging people from using certain forms of treatment. But then again, nothing about her would surprise me. ohno:

suzanne didnt deserve any raise. the only reason she wanted more $$$ is becuase she was either dating or married to, her manager at the time, who got her the job in the first place.

{correct me if i'm wrong}

I don't think Alan Hamel got Suzanne the job, but things all went downhill when she fired her manager and hired Alan in his place. :eek:
