It's is my sad duty to inform his fans, that John Ritter had died tonight. He was known best for wotking on the TV show Three's Company, but was very busy working as a v/o for Clifford the Big Red Dog, Guest Apperances on Hollywood Squares and finally having his own show again which aparently was succsessful, 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter. He died of a Heart Attack, he was only 54.

God bless his soul

and R.I.P.

The Man in Black takes a bow right after Jack Tripper mails it in? Talk about a dark day in the history of entertainment.

I wasn't a huge 3's company fan b/c it was a bit before my time, but I loved Ritter - Problem Child 1 is still one of the funnier movies I've seen (ok well maybe not, but it was still funny) and 8 Rules for Dating my Teenage Daughter was an AWESOME show - I wonder if they'll get someone to replace him on it, but I hope not. As for Cash, no obit necessary - an absolute legend.

Rest in Peace Guys, and thanks for the memories.

Damn, this day is deffinately not a good one. John Ritter was a very funny guy, will absolutely be missed, especially since they will probably cancel his new show, 8 simple rules. I'm gonna miss those daughters of his on the show. As for Cash, I'm not a real fan, only song I like was his Hurt cover.

Although I know very little about Ritter, it's a shock to see anyone die that young these days. As for Cash, it didn't exactly come as any surprise, and I'm really happy for how celebrated he was during this last year and a half.

I'll agree with Freak there, christ sake, I saw an MTV special about him right before those Video Music Awards, and then he won a ####in award and was nominated for 6. It was also strange seeing about 75% of the artists on stage mention something about Johnny Cash, it was the only reason I kept watching.

So that was a shocker, but the real credibility came at the Grammy's. Nice stuff.

It was great to see him be recognised one last time, of course he hasnt had a hit in years (And Im sure he didnt get his grey hairs over that anyway) so this was nice.

Give it time

I was shcked to hear of this comedic genius' passing. I remember watching the re-runs of 3's Comapny when I was a kid. It's also too bad that his passing happened on his daughter's birthday and then his wife's was the next day - scrary. RIP - Jack Tripper.
