Not sure if anyone is interested but since I finally converted them to DVD I thought I would post all the John Ritter stuff I have from when he passed away.

When 8 Simple Rules returned Katey Sagal introduced the three episodes John Ritter filmed. She has a little opening monologue about working with him. Very sad, I don't think WB aired that. She does the opening for "Premiere" "Sex Ed" and "Donny Goes AWOL". I also have the repeat of "Come and Knock on Our Door" which they re aired at some point before the next new episode "Goodbye" which I have both parts of. Now I didn't record the commercials for these but they are from there original airings (minus "Come and Knock...")

I got about ten minutes of different news segments from my local channels and a few cable talking about it.

Biography aired his bio the night it was announced. This has since re aired but it is from that night. I missed about the first ten minutes of it but I have the rest.

Larry King Live from that night. They did a fifteen minute segment on him. Suzanne Sommers does a phone interview and Henry Winkler Richard Kline and Priscella Barnes talk about it. I only recorded the John Ritter segment.

ET Weekend about him. I believe this was a whole hour. I just watched it again but I honestly can't remember.

20/20 They did a segment on there show the next day. It is a little segment but they go into the details about his heath and less on his career. This was more of the medical stance. Again I just recorded the segment and not the whole episode.

TV Land did a weekend marathon with a few promos about him and showcased his guest staring in many shows. I recorded Three's a Crowd, Starsky and Hutch, Rhoda, Hawaii Five O, Waltons, Wings, Hooperman, Cosby Show, The Love Boat, and Mannix. I think everything else that aired I already had.

Nick at Nite did a similar thing with just Three's Company. I recorded one episode from it and they showed the same promos TV Land did. I will have to check on the episode.

I also got "A Life of Laughter Remembering John Ritter" from ABC.

Wow, that's cool. I would be interested in some of that stuff - I'm not sure if I have anything you'd be interested in. I'm working on bringing my trade site back up, and hope to have it operational again tomorrow. Is there anything special you're looking for?

I have the ABC special tribute, with the Three's Company and 8 Simple Rules cast, and many others. it was from September 18th, 2003. It's very sad....Any interest? (They also show the last interview he ever did)

I will email you guys latter this week. I am having company over all this week so I can't do much organizing.
