The Emmy's Tribute To John Ritter - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Wow, that was really really REALLY sentimental.

I started crying when Henry Winkler was talking, when they started showing the clips of John.

Then I started to laugh! In the middle of crying! at the skits they were showing!

John Ritter was an amazing AMAZING man. I'm glad they dedicated a bit on this show to him.

I just saw it. I think Henry Winkler did very well .

Yes very well composed.

I wonder the scene they showed with John and Jamie Lee Curtis, where he leaned to kiss her, she moved and he ended up putting his face in the dish of whatever, what show was that?

And what show was it that he was trying to rinse his shampooed hair in the back of the toilet?! That was the one that made me bust out laughing!

It takes someone special to make a crying moment a laughing moment at the very same time.

Everything is kept to such a time limit on these shows I dont think they could have made it any longer unfortunately.

I did catch a John Ritter Tribute on VH1 today too that was really well done.

But this one at the Emmy's was one of the best I think, even as short as it was.

It really caught me.

The one with Jamie Lee Curtis was the show Anything But Love. Not sure about the other one.

What part of the show is John Ritter's tribute?

it's in the final 20 minutes of the show. They follow it by a memorium for the other actors/actresses/directors/etc that have passed away in 2003.

O.K., thanks for the answer.
I don't want to miss it, but I don't want to record the whole show, either.

Henry Winkler made me cry - you could see he was putting on a brave face, but he was holding back tears as he spoke.

It's already over, and it was done live from California. Are they gonna show it again?

I doubt it but I did tape it, as well as the pre show if you are interested. Just let me know.
