Has anyone ever met the cast? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Number 9 Dream · 08-09-2005, 12:19 AM

I was just curious if anyone here has met someone from the show. I know a few of you have met Joyce and Priscilla

I Love John Ritter · 08-09-2005, 12:32 AM

I wish! The only one that I wanted to meet more than anything else is of course, John Ritter. It would be nice to be able to meet anyone else from the cast, since John is no longer here, but meeting any of them could NEVER compare with meeting him.

jackslovelady · 08-09-2005, 03:23 AM

OMG!!! I totally agree!!! He was sooooooooo wonderful, i would love to have met him!! Nothing in gods green earth would have compared with that!!!!! He was sooo invoved in helping people with handicaps, and any kind, not just Cerebal Palsy..... I would reaslly loved to have told him how much that meant to me,as i have a physical handicap myself. He really warmed my heart and soul on soooooooooo many levels, i can't even tell you in how many ways, i have lost count!!

BTW, I Love John Ritter, what movie is the picture in your avatar from, it looks sooooo familiar!! I would like to find more like it, gotta love a man in a uniform

(especially that man happens to be John Ritter

)

I really wish that I could have met John Ritter. People have always said that he didn't treat you as a fan but as a friend or family member. The man would treat you like he had known you his whole life and you would feel as if you had known him all your life. I would like to meet any of them, but meeting John would have been AWESOME!

Yep, so far I've met Joyce DeWitt 3 times, Priscilla Barnes once and I had the honor of meeting the late great John Ritter while he was here in NYC performing in The Dinner Party on Broadway. He was so sweet and even though it was a FREEZING cold February day, he stood outside and signed autographs and took a picture with me and my mom. He was very soft spoken in person and I'm blessed to have had the chance to say I met him now that he's passed on...

jackslovelady · 08-09-2005, 05:00 PM

WOW!!!!!! YOU ARE SOOOOOOO LUCKY!! IT MUST HAVE JUST BEEN HEARTPOUNDING TO MEET ALL OF THEM, BUT ESPECIALLY JOHN!! THAT IS AMAZING!!

YOU SHOULD SUBMIT THOSE PICS OF YOU, JOHN, AND YOUR MOM IF YOU CAN!! I AM ALMOST POSITIVE THAT WE WOULD ALL LOVE TO SEE THEM!! AGAIN, THAT MUST HAVE JUST BEEN AN OUT-OF-BODY EXPERIENCE!! WOW!!

I've met (in order) Don Knotts, Joyce DeWitt and Priscilla Barnes.
It sure would have been fun to meet and talk to John Ritter but that never happened.

Terri Cardellini · 08-09-2005, 10:49 PM

I met Joyce and PRISCILLA

Yeah it was wonderful to meet him. I would post them but my mom is very self conscious and hates photos of herself so she'd kill me if I posted them on-line.

I look pretty lousy too. I was sick as a dog that day with a bad sore throat but since we had the tickets this was an opportunity I wasnt' going to miss. We met Henry Winkler as well (he arrived at the theater shortly after John) and he was also really sweet. He actually spent a few more moments with us than John (I think they were both in a hurry to get to work though) but Henry asked us where were from, and he held my mom's hand, etc. But John was sweet too. I remember I telling him we were really big fans and he kind of paused and almost seemed surprised and said "Thank you!". I don't know if it was because of my age or what (I'm in my 20s).
It was truly a wonderful experience even though it was brief and I'm grateful to have had that encounter with him. I was so upset when he died. I honestly felt sick in the weeks following his death like I had lost a family member even though I didn't KNOW him and only met him once.

I could cut you guys out on the pictures if you want me to.

Number 9 Dream · 08-10-2005, 11:50 AM

Yeah maybe she was. There was a lot people who posted their stories on her site.

MelissaY1 · 08-10-2005, 01:06 PM

Avril's site?? Hmm..don't know...we never posted the photo on any websites. And aside from two "autograph hounds" who had mulitple 3s Company and Happy Days photos for the actors to sign we were the only ones out there because we went before the show (which in my opinion is the best time to meet favorite actors).
