I voted Ritter. By the way, as of yet Retro, you haven't voted in your own poll.

I chose John Ritter as well. Jimmie Walker was a bad actor in "Good Times." His character became quite popular, but I still thought he was a bad actor. Robin Williams was talented on "Mork & Mindy." But I think John Ritter was great in "Three's Company." No way that show would have lasted if he wasn't in it. Plus, there were times when Mork could get on my nerves. That never happened with Jack Tripper.

Plus, John Ritter had it tougher. He didn't have some huge catchphrase to always fall back on like the others did (Dy-No-Mite & Nanu-nanu, or whatever).

I started this poll because it was done on another site and Ritter won by a big margin so I wanted to see if that would happen on this site and I see that it is-lol

TV Favorite TV Star of the 70's...

Definitely John Ritter! No offense to those who like Jimmy Walker. I couldn't stand him. Still can't. Robin Williams is a good actor but Mork was too silly.
