Just wanted to say hello. I was very sad when I first heard about Ritter. It came as a huge shock. I still can't believe it. I had always hoped for a reunion of TC and now it will never happen. God bless his family.

On a different note. I was thinking about John the other day and something ironic popped up. He had to act gay in TC. Then years later he was portrayed as a gay man in Sling Blade.

Hello and welcome. That is ironic. Gay folks on TV is just part of the scene now, but I wonder if it was somewhat shocking to have him pretending to be gay back in the 70's. I am thinking the gay rights people wouldnt appreciate it now.

Well it was well known John had liberal views. so i think the gay
right's movement would have accepted
John anytime. :)

Welcome :wave:

I can't believe John's gone, either. The specials on tv made me cry and everything. People like him arn't supposed to die...and so soon. :(
