I loved him on Three's Company and I watch the repeats all the time. Its so sad and I'm curious to see how his new show will hande it. Its going to be so difficult to watch.

Re: 8 Simple Rules- tonight-John Ritter
I think the first 3 episodes are ones that were taped with him, than they are going to have his character pass away.
It is going to be hard, but I am sure being the kind of actor and comic that he was he will want people to laugh at the first 3 episodes. It was his life work to make people laugh and this is the last work that he did.
It will be really hard to deal with the episodes that deal with his charactrs passing and how the family deals with it

Re: 8 Simple Rules- tonight-John Ritter
I agree that it is goign to be really sad. What I wonder is whether or not the show will turn more into a drama or will they keep it a comedy. It seems that it will be hard to keep it light-hearted when dealing with the loss of a father. I'm curious to see how they write it in.
