Let's all wish a great 55th birthday to the king of physical comedy...John Ritter.

Okay let's try to keep the sadness to a minimum here and remember how funny he was.

BTW, I know this is pretty late to be posting this since the day is almost over..but what can I say..I had homework

I've never really been a big fan of yours but you seemed like a great person, and you always seemed nice to your fans and co-stars. You also were probably a great dad and husband.

Happy Birthday John.

We Miss You.

Happy Birthday John!

You have touched me and millions with your gratitude and comedy! Cant wait to see u in heaven!

Mr. Ritter, I want to wish you a very happy birthday.

It still doesn't seem right that you're no longer with us, but you will never be forgotten.

I miss you a lot.

Happy birthday, John.

I just want to let you know that there's no possible way for me to see you on tv to not either crack up, or get really touched. You were such a great actor, person, father, friend. Someone like you doesn't deserve to die so young, but then again...it does always seems to happen to the good people. Love ya, and hope to see you some day, somewhere.

*Pleasant Tomorrow* · 09-17-2003, 09:33 PM

You're the best, John.

Happy Birthday John.

I didn't know much about you, but I know Lucille Ball loved you. It seems like everyone does. Keep everyone in heaven entertained, will you?

Happy 55th,
Leah

Today is the day that 8 Simple Rules premiered last year..so I guess on John's 54th birthday it was a great present for him.

I've watched John Ritter growing up and he's always been one of my favorite actors. Such a sweet person and a great actor should still be here today...I hope he's having a great birthday wherever he is.

Awwwww everytime I saw the date, I was like "ahhhh". But no sadness so...

Happy birthday John!! You were one of the funniest actors I've ever seen and I hope your 55th birthday is very special to you.

::ActriceDouce:: · 09-17-2003, 10:15 PM

Does anyone know the name of the John Ritter movie, I think it was a TV movie from the 90's where he was maybe a teacher. I think he got locked in the trunk of a car or something, I cannot remember it too well but it's been driving me crazy trying to think of it.

Nahhhh you can be sad, cuz I still am and am sure many others are too...but I just thought it should be a happy occasion since it's his birthday. It's the day he came into this world and from then he's made us laugh for many years.

This is the saddest I've ever been about a celebrity. He just seemed like the sweetest person in the world, and whenever I saw the marathon on TV Land, he made me laugh but those 'in memory' commercials made me cry. Ugh

he should still be here now.

Yeah I know what you mean, those commercials are pretty sad...

especially those ones they have on ABC..the ones for 8 Simple Rules. They say stuff like "starting next week...the final episodes of John Ritter." That really got to me....I don't know what I'll do when I see the episode of 8 Simple Rules where Paul dies. There will be a special introduction by the cast when they air that episode and I wonder how they'll explain it in the show.

I don't really know because I've only seen a few John Ritter movies...but the first thing that came to my mind was "Hero at Large" *shrug* But that was in the 80s..so I really don't know.
