somebody knocked me down for saying this but i didnt like when she told her father she hated him. and she realized the next moment he would be gone. they said it wasnt real. i know but its a life lesson
Henry Winkler couldn't believe it when he was told "We lost John." After being told John had died, Henry was just devastated. They'd been working together that day on "8 Simple Rules."
Anyone else sobbing like a baby here? I’m thinking of and missing my Grandma, who was also my best friend and therapist while I was being bullied all through elementary school. Rip Grandma 😢❤️🤲
The way Kaley says "I just want my dad back" . . . say what you like about her acting ability but if ever there was a real feeling of loss put into a scripted line, that's it!
I lost my father when I was 9 years old. This mont its another aniversary of his death, and there is not a single fucking day that I wont want him back.
You made me cry! I loved it. Saw it when it was on tv and though another god show by people i know and John Ritter. I remember it like it was yesterday. An this video brought it all back. An the song By Reba one of my fav. Sings and she don’t have a bad song to me. You picked the very best for the video. R. I. P. John Ritter you will be dearly missed
Hearing Kaley Cuoco (Bridget) talking in an interview years later about the last words John said to her was probably the most heartbreaking for me: after he already told on set that he's sick, he came by her dressing room and told her that he loves her and that he wants to be sure that she knows that and then leaves.
I lost my dad back in may of this year. He passed away right in front of me. So I totally understand how Bridget feels. No matter how much I want my dad back he can never come back,
I remember crying during this episode. John Ritter was a wonderful actor and man. My great-uncle Bill worked for his dad Tex Ritter doing a job for him and met John who was just a little boy and he called him Uncle Bill. My uncle said he had a feeling John would grow up to be a success and he was right.
I loved John Ritter, he seemed so real and genuine with so much talent, heartbreaking episode, I'm sure the pain of losing him was very real to the actors on the show 😢💕
This episode captured grief very realistically very well...it was after he died that the show turned into a dramedy about loss and grief and learning how to deal with the loss of a loved one.
That episode was so heart 😭 wrenching it bought tears to my eyes. Just shows how fragile life is and that we have to be grateful for every day that we wake up.
John was amazing. Thoughtful, intelligent, funny, handsome and genuinely kind. He was a decent person that did his job so well. He left a hole in the world that will never be filled. RIP to a Beautiful Man. ❤
This made me cry as well. I enjoyed watching John Ritter. It's still difficult to watch him in reruns after all these years. It's very bittersweet. Plus, shortly after John's passing, I lost my own Father on 11/26/2003, the day before Thanksgiving, which was four months after I lost my Grandmother. There are some things that you don't forget. Or get over.
They had an interview with his widow Amy Yasbeck some time after John had passed. She'd mentioned one night that she was with her daughter as they were playing a Clifford The Big Red Dog computer game(John had voiced Clifford). Amy said that upon hearing her father's voice say "Good job!" for getting a question correct, she jumped to her feet, looked up to God and yelled something along the lines of "DROP HIM!!" or "GIVE HIM BACK!!".
@@dawnofdestruction7381 I think his daughter now has an angel walking every step with her. His grown kids too. I never heard or saw anything about booze, drugs, cheating, etc. like almost all celebrities. He was a good person with a big heart. So rare these days.
It will be 2 years next month that I lost my dad. He had cancer and in the end I couldn't go see him anymore. He was so week and that wasn't my dad. The day before he died, I got to talk to him and say goodbye😢 I will cherish that conversation forever
Can't believe it's been 20 years since John Ritter's passing. Just lost 1 of his Three's Company co-stars, Suzanne Somers, a month ago the day before her 77th birthday. John himself was 6 days shy of his 55th birthday. I remember when this episode 1st aired. I remember crying when I 1st saw it & when I 1st found out he passed away at such a young age. May John & Suzanne rest in eternal love & peace. They are terribly missed.
so relatable, i think everyone has that one person in their life who they loved dearly but to whom their last words were less than friendly and they would give anything to change it
R.I.P. John Ritter. We all love you and miss you. You gave all of us countless years of entertainment and laughter. Your talent and comedic timing will always and forever be in our hearts. God Bless you John. 😭😭.
I lost my dad back in may of this year. He passed away right in front of me. So I totally understand how Bridget feels. No matter how much I want my dad back he can never come back,
Why did I just watch this again and again. This had me crying my eyes out. I miss my mom she passed in 2010 and my brother/ best friend die in 2019. I miss them so much.
This really hit home for me. I too lost my dad a few years ago and quite shockingly, he was a huge fan of John Ritter. It's funny too about that because I forever wonder what he would think about my liking for John after all these years.
I've watched this video a couple of times over the years. But my Dad died suddenly 2 months ago and it hits even harder. Cate's speech at the end really got me. Because that's how I felt about my Dad
I can't imagine it either. I was almost 50 when my dad died suddenly in May 2021 after a heart attack. All that week I'd been angry with him over the stupidest thing. So yes, losing Dad was a kick in the guts. I have to live with the fact that things were unresolved between us. But I will miss him forever.
This song has always made me cry ever since the first time i heard. It reminds me of everyone i lost and how i wished i had just one more day with them
Mission accomplished. I'm sobbing. This song gets me every time. I lost both my parents very unexpectedly and still haven't completely come to terms with it. Watching these clips from the show is just an extra tug at my heart. I can relate to their emotions ..... And to cry for THEM too. They were more than just a cast on a TV show. They are a family- they are not acting here. They are grieving . John Ritter was way too young to leave us .I remember hearing the news the night he passed I thought it was a sick joke ....of course we always say that but the fact that he died on his daughters 5th bday is exttra cruel .. . He was a gem.,so many of us grew up with him . My heart goes out to everyone who's lost someone ... Just a reminder . Never let a day go by without telling your loved ones w How much they mean to you. Don't let anything go unsaid. We just never know how much time we have with them..our loved ones are the only important things in life. Cherish them, good times bad times and everything in between onc they are gone they are gone. Forever. ( Though I do believe in the after life. It feels like an eternity without them while we are still on earth . Treat each other well guys !
It's November now, always a rough month for me being that both my parents passed in November(my mom in 2018, my dad in 2022) I stumbled across this clip just browsing RU-vid and it hits me far more intensely than it would've seeing it back in 2003 when my parents were still alive.
@@ritchietodd409 aww I'm so so very sorry for you loss I hope you're okay . Please surround yourself with a good support system.plraae take care of you
Very sorry for your loss. My Dad died Dec.1, 1977. I was 18. I'm 64 now. I still grieve for him. My Mom died Nov. 18, 2010. 13 years ago today. I remember when John Ritter died. This song broke me today. 😢😢😢
This episode has also taught us to be careful with what you say to those you love because but sometimes, you never know when it could actually be the last time you'll see the person you love. I know how hard it is to lose loved ones because I've lost loved ones and got one more chance to say I love you. We might not mean what we say to those we love unintentionally, but sometimes, we do. Life is too short, appreciate life, your friends and your family and more importantly, always tell your loved ones I love you every chance you get, because once they're gone, no matter what you say, how much you shout and cry, they will never hear your voice again because remember, you can only talk to whoever you love while they're living, not when they're gone because by then, it's too late and you will never be able to fix whatever you said ever again, sometimes people wish they can go back and fix everything of whatever they said to those they love, even if it is just to for a second chance to apology, but sometimes we don't get a second chance.
Yes this episode my family so many things that we don't get second chances when my mom passed I knew that was harder on us she always kept saying one day I'm going to be gone and you're a good miss me and she was right she was right
Yeah, after my dad died, some people told my mom, "it's part of God's plan," and that PISSED her off. You should never imply that God's plan involves killing or disabling the people you love.
and sometimes if we get a second chance, it would have been better off if we didn't. Back in April 2020, my wife and her adult son had a major fight and they hung up the phone in disgust. I tried calling to talk to her son and he told me to stay out of it, he would talk to his mother when he was ready. The next day, my wife had a major stroke. It couldn't have happened at a worse time because COVID was shutting down the world. I was able to get into the ER only because I had to make a life and death decision; whether to operate which had little chance to succeed and was unknown how much damage was done, but they knew it would be extensive. Because of the fight the previous day, I told the doctors to go ahead despite knowing my wife would not have wanted it if she was going to be incapacitated. She survived the surgery and spent the next three months in the hospital. She never regain the ability to walk again, had limited use of her hands (as in she could barely feed herself) and her mental capabilities were that of a five year old. She remembered I was important in her life, but never remembered why. Her son visited a couple of times and he tried to apologize for the fight, but all she wanted to do was play with his hair and her teddy bear (yes, it was that bad). Her son finally told me he appreciated why I decided what I did, but wished I just had let her go. He was now worried she was going to spend the next 10 plus years like this. Thankfully (and I don't care what anyone thinks of me for this opinion), she didn't last another year. She passed in January 2021. So sometimes trying to get the "second chance" can only make things worse.
This episode is so heartbreaking to watch. It still makes me cry. He was so beloved by everyone. I don't think I ever heard people say bad things about this wonderful man. So sad he died. I loved him on threes company and 8 simple rules. After he passed away this show I couldn't watch it. It wasn't the same. He was the show. PERIOD!! John ritter was a true comedian and beloved man. 🙏
You know what's kind of messed up. If John Ritter doesn't pass away, then Kaley Cuoco never becomes a star. When John Ritter died, the show's ratings dropped significantly. Instead of only going 3 seasons and then getting cancelled, 8 Simple Rules For Dating My Teenage Daughter probably would have gone 6-8 seasons. If that happens, then Kaley never gets the part of Penny on Big Bang Theory and never becomes a star.
It’s fucked how one tragedy led that to happen, she still could’ve been a star if this show continued for 7-8 years had Ritter not passed but she definitely wouldn’t have gotten to the heights she’s reached without being on Big Bang theory
Especially after having lost my dad at a young age this video hit me so hard. The last thing I said to my dad was that I'll see him in Texas. He died in California while I was living with former friends in Texas. I was so shaken by the phone call because I never once told him that as his son I loved him.
The scene before the show starts, when katey sagal tribute to john, I found out that she hold her left hand with her right hand to stop the shaking, that hit me hard and made me cry like a baby. The irony is, couple of months ago, I was trying to find a comedy show to easy up my life, and I decided to watch this show, but it turned into tragedy, I was not expecting that. but still I'm so lucky o find and watch this show, few moments ago I finished watching all the 3 seasons. I'm so mad about the ending, they didn't give the show what it deserve, John was the live of this show, the show was not the same show without him, the cast was incredible to move on with the show, to be honest I never thought they could save the show, C.J and the grandpa kind of saved big part of the show but not entirely. anyway. what a journey that I wasn't expecting. I'm going to miss this show.
Well it made me cry 😭 I enjoyed this show and John Ritter was taken way too soon and Reba you made me cry 😭 even though I am a male you made me cry 😭 my heart goes out to John Ritter's family and his friends and all the actors and actresses that had the privilege of working with him
Remember everyone, their tears and their reactions were real cause it was just so sudden. John Ritter was a wonderful and funny man I grew up watching Reruns of Three's Company ( still do) and he was just funny, he died way to soon. R.I.P John Ritter we still miss you to this day. 😔😓🕊
"I just want my dad back". I lost my dad in April of 1981 when I was 23. It is now April of 2024, and I am 66. I still want him back. Miss you Pa. Every day.
In one scene, after John died, Bridget told her sister, "I can't believe the last thing I said to dad was i hate you." Thats why it is wise to be careful what you say to parents. It could be the last time.
I remember this show. It was good when John was on it but when the grandfather and uncle came on. It wasn't to long until this show went off of the air
I wish Two in a half men took Charlie Harper’s death more seriously, and i know John Ritter actually passed away, respect to 8-simple rules for a realistic heartfelt script instead of chasing small laughs. Sometimes life gets real.
I watched this episode last week & could stop crying because how bridget felt is how i felt wen dad passed i told him with my body language to leave my room i was always mean with him yet he sacrificed alot 4 me & that same night god took him all i kept thinking if id only been a better son😢
I stumbled upon this video on the day my male German Shepherd mauled our other male mutt. Jasper the mutt succumbed to his injuries and being that Riley the GS had attacked him before we had to put Riley down. Lost two members in our family in one day. I did get to say I loved them both before they died. A long time ago after I wasn’t able to say I love you to my dad, I always end a phone conversation or a text with I love you, and always will! Don’t let the last thing you say to a loved one anything other than I LOVE YOU!
What makes his death tragic more is many are unaware was this, it was his daughter's birthday and September 11. John said in an interview as our daughter was about to make her way to us our country was attacked. Then our doctor told us how can you let pure evil take away the joy of bringing an precious present into this world. He was right. The day he went into the hospital was his daughter's birthday. They were supposed to after taping have her birthday party. I think of her because she wasn't old enough to understand at the time.
You don't have to be sorry. You reminded us that life is fragile. That what you say to your loved ones might be that last thing your say. I say thank you for that.
Si Jhon Ritter no hubiera muerto esta serie hubiera seguido y sería una de las mejores. Ritter era un grande de la comedia, pudo ser un serie épica. Pero perdió al principal. Que triste.
Goes to show you that life is short and is so damn fragile. Enjoy it while you can with the people you love and please tell them you love them each and every day. You never know what tomorrow is gonna bring. 🙏
