View Full Version : John Ritter SECRETS!
I thought this would put a smile on some of your faces, at least for awhile:
From Late Night With Conan O'Brien (http://www.nbc.com/conan):
"I once had a heated argument with Don Knotts. He looked me dead in the eye and said that I wasn't fit to shine Andy Griffith's shoes. I stayed up all night thinking about that and I said to myself, 'My God he's right.' The next day, I quit my job as Andy Griffith's shoe shiner."
"Three's Company was originally called Three Companies about a trio of pharmaceutical companies. It was ten times funnier."
"Most people don't know that I am an accomplished dramatic actor. I have a play on Broadway now with Henry Winkler called Dinner Party. But I've performed in several Shakespeare productions including Hamlet, except in this version, Hamlet lives in an apartment with two women, and has to pretend he's gay so that the landlord won't evict him."
"Apparently there's this new scandal about how you can see my scrotum hanging out of my blue boxer shorts for a split second on episode 161 of Three's Company. Someone asked me if maybe I did that on purpose. You bet I did."
"The show CHiPs taped right next door to us. I remember going over to the set to see my friend Paul Linke who played Officer Grossman, and I was walking behind the sound stage and I saw Erik Estrada kissing Don Knotts. Two days later Don showed up to the set in tears. He told everyone his dog was sick but I knew it was because he had broken up with Erik."
"Once during a taping there was an actor who kept blowing his lines. It happened again and again. Finally Norman Fell came out- he wasn't even in that scene. But Norman came out and you know what he did? He killed the guy with a hammer."

phoebe7165 09-14-2003, 12:58 AM Thanks, AKA, for putting a smile on my face in the midst of what has been a pretty crappy couple of days for alot of us. If only John was able to read these posts and see the outpouring of love we all had for him.:heart: :heart:
animalcrackers 09-14-2003, 08:54 AM Thanks for that! The first one got me laughing! And thanks Mr. Ritter!
Yeah. I never knew how much I loved the guy until he was gone. As John Lennon said, "You don't know what you gut until you lose it."
