It is an ABSOLUTE INSULT that Larry King Live on CNN only had 18 minutes of time for John Ritter's Death on Friday and then a pathetic 7 minutes on Monday!!

The reason I want John on this show so badly is because it is the only TV show where we fans can call in and give comments, condolences, and questions to the guests!! THE FANS OF JOHNNY CASH GOT TO CALL IN AND SO SHOULD WE!!

How the hell can that old walking corpse Larry King do this???

He gave Johnny Cash a full hour yet he was old and sick with diabetes and his death would not be that suprising.

But John Ritter was MUCH YOUNGER than Cash and showed no signs of sickness and YET HE DIED TOTALLY UNEXPECTEDLY!!

And yet all he has for John Ritter is a measley 18 minutes on Friday and then a paltry 7 minutes on Monday!!! WHAT A JOKE!!!

WE ALL KNOW that John Ritter deserves AT LEAST a full hour on Larry King Live where CALLERS CAN CALL IN AND ASK QUESTIONS OR GIVE COMMENTS ABOUT JOHN RITTER!!! Johnny Cash got the full hour and John Ritter deserves the same!!

Even Tammy Faye Baker got an ENTIRE HOUR on the night of the ABC tribute!! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT??? WHAT A F*KING JOKE!!
Ritter should've been the topic with cast members on so fans like us COULD'VE CALLED IN AND GIVEN OUR CONDOLENCES AND GIVEN COMMENTS AND/OR QUESTIONS and it would've kept with the continuity of the evening since a lot of people would've had John Ritter on their mind since the ABC tribute would've just ended.

Everyone please call CNN at 404-827-1500 and request to have Ritter on for the full hour on Larry King Live. Ask for the Larry King Live show and then they will transfer you to someone.

THANKS A LOT FELLOW RITTER FANS

:wave:

They were each different personas, lets not turn it into a popularity contest.

Yeah!

On Friday's show, the actors who did appear, Henry Winkler, Richard Kline & Priscilla Barnes were in shock, like we were.

There wasn't a whole lot they could say, at the time. Even Richard Kline commented " I'm usually more talkative then this".

On Monday's show, I thought it was supposed to be one half Johnny Cash/ one half John Ritter. But I don't know if we can blame Larry King for that. Maybe Joyce DeWitt only wanted to be on for a few minutes, not the whole show.

Maybe on a later date, Larry King will have more of a tribute.

Decrepit bonehead walking corpse Larry King better give Ritter a better tribute in the form of a full hr. show.

It's no big deal because once you subtract the into and conclusion and all the commercials it is actually less than 45 minutes.

I thought of something else.

John Ritter hasn't had a funeral yet. When they had on family & friends of Johnny Cash, he had been buried earlier in the day.

With all due respect, Big3s, there may be many people out there who could care less about John Ritter and be upset that Larry King did not devote a full hour to Johnny Cash. It was two shocking deaths in the entertainment world within 24 hours, PLUS the second anniversary of 9-11. The news media was overflowing with stories to tell.

Don't resort to calling Larry King a Decrepit bonehead walking corpse. That's really not accomplishing a lot, is it. As has been mentioned, many of John Ritter's friends were still in shock as to his death. There may have been people who didn't want to discuss it so fast, out of mere respect for the guy. I think, personally, that there should have been a bit more time given to his friends and family to grieve before they start chatting on talk shows. However, that's their choice to give interviews when they want.

I haven't seen ABC do a special hour on Johnny Cash yet. I'm not upset by it. It will all play out in time. Just chill out and let things happen.
