When I saw Real Men with him and Jim Belushi. One of my favorite movies ever.
John starts out as wimp who is afraid of his own shadow, and turns into the toughest guy in the world, beating up burglars and shooting bad guys with his pointer finger.

I grew up watching Three's Company when I was a kid in the '70s.

Three's company as a kid and later IT. John was a great comedic actor and a even greater dramatic actor. I'm trying to watch everything he was in.

Truthfully,there's almost no way one becomes a fan of a male or female comedian/actor,without them getting a big score like "Three's Company".
If it's a stand up comic,that's different but an actor like John? It has to be a significant amount of time on a Tv show and also shocase their best talents.
I'd love to say I knew his work before "Three's Company" but of course,I didn't. I can say the first thing of his earlier work I did see was his gust spot on "MAS*H" and then "The Bob Newhart Show".

Three's Company

Three's Company It was the first sitcom I ever watched as a young kid. I liked him in a couple movies too.

Three's company.
I was 10 when i first saw this. My mother is a huge fan of this show and i started watching it ever since in reruns.

Real Men with Jim Belushi.
Loved both of them in that.

When he played the Reverend on "The Waltons." That was my favorite show growing up in the early '70s.

Well, when I was younger, forgot how old, but about 6 or 7 yrs old. I got 'Problem Child' for some holiday and just loved that movie, watched it so many times, but I more favored Junior because I loved the way his mind worked lol.
But I became a real fan when I just turned 10 years old. It was right after he passed, they were talking about his life on some entertainment/news show and thought he looked like a cool guy, then I saw the TV Land awards when they did that little video tribute to him, I was really touched by that. And then I5b4 randomly turned on the TV and saw the last 2 mins of TC when Lucille Ball was on talking about the 'Best Of' and then I was in love, and still am! Always will be.

I had a HUGE crush on John Ritter as Jack Tripper. He was cute and funny, a quality that I still find hugely attractive in men today.

I became a Ritter fan when I saw Hooperman.

Well, John Ritter reminded of a Swedish looks of "Abba" musical group. He reminds me so much ofa leadins singer of ABBA, Bjrn Ulvaeus. He got this Scandinavian good-looks, I wonder whether he has some Scandinavian roots. His last name sounds German. Very talented and easy going guy.

You should see it then. It's the greatest sitcom ever along with the Jeffersons.

Being English, I didn't see many of the episodes of Three's Company. My favourite John Ritter role, was as Ben Hanson in Stephen King's IT. John was quite sexy in this role - especially with a beard, not the usual look For him.It's such a shame that he's no longer with us.
Infamy, Infamy! - They've all got it in for me!

You almost feel like saying people are lying if they tell you they discovered Ritter anywhere else but Three's Company.
Three's Company was certainly his most successful and well known work. I know people talk about Slingblade he did but I've seen Ritter in drama and his comedic work like TC is 100000 better than any dramatic work he did.
He was just average as a dramatic actor but John Ritter was the most hilarious sitcom character ever!!
