John Ritter is a legend. His son looks and sounds like him so much. He’s also a very talented actor.
I agree with you and as for his son Jason Ritter, not that many people heard of him believe it or not.
I miss John Ritter so much. Jason sounds and looks just like him.
Well that's the best part of a family is that you look like them you inherit their looks or their genetics or how they think or how they speak it's all done through a great thing called DNA
I can hear his dad in his voice.
This is one of the few times that I can *REALLY SEE* John in Jason Ritter's face, too.
First thing I thought when he spoke!!! It made me more sad, I miss seeing John Ritter. Watching Problem Child with my kids.
John Ritter, irreplaceable. 💔
One of the few people no one hated. Who else can that be said about?
John Candy. Both were well loved.
Was just a sweet guy a nice person a real human being, we need more like him in this world
@@jaylene.turner6524Why did she hate him?
Loved John Ritter. Spent my childhood watching "Threes company" mostly because of him! 💙 R.I.P. JR
Me, 100% because of him. 🙄
Jason is just like his father John.
Loved his dad.. so sad.
He looks and has the same mannerisms as his dad , I'm sure his dad is smiling down on him proud of his son.
To this day I still miss John Ritter he was a wonderful hilarious good natured man 😢 his legacy will live on forever in our hearts
I once had a long conversation about John Ritter with someone and the importance of him and how good he was, and the person I was talking to just couldn't get it. They were stuck on the fact that he was just an actor who played in sitcoms . What was so special about that?
There are 100s of actors who just play in a sitcom for the check. And you can tell those right away and generally those are the sitcoms that don't last or don't really touch people. As Jason stated here and anyone who ever watched John could tell, he was in it for more. He truly had a passion for making people laugh . he put him self into the roles he played no matter how goofy.
The line is true , there are no small roles, only small people.
Even roles as a guest star you could tell the impact john had on a room and a scene . he will be missed always
I hope that person isn't your friend still
He is gorgeous.
He looks like his Dad♥️ Love John Ritter♥️
Absolutely loved John Ritter. One of my all time favorite actors. I loved Threes Company. One of the best comedy sitcoms. Miss John so much! His son looks so much like him.
RIP John Ritter. Such a talent he was
What a cutie! He is so sweet and a lot like his dad.
He looks and sounds just like his dad it’s incredible!
Such a sweet, handsome, talented young man. Like father like son. I’ll always miss John.
He’s so cute 💕
John Ritter was so good in Sling Blade.
Skin Deep, too; he was *hilarious* in that movie. :)
TheJ0k0r50 great 🎥
I had a hard childhood and John Writter (Jack Tripper) helped me so much. I felt safe happy and comforted when he was on TV.
It breaks my heart they couldn’t figure out in time how to save him 😢
John Ritter was one of my boyhood idols! Loved his work, and he brought lots of joy to the world...... Miss him so much. I'm happy to see Jason acting this is awesome. HE looks like a leading man so hope he does great, and like his dad finds love, happiness, success, and unlike his dad a much longer life. RIP
What a nice young man. Yes, this runs in families. We know personally. How sad but I’m sure he’s smiling down on his son.John Ritter was amazing!
I love threes company one of the greatest comedy of. All time
Sounds like a great son. He had a talented father that I enjoyed watching.
I'm rarely able to talk about my father's death without crying. Jason Ritter is so composed.
Well when you have 25 million dollars, no matter what you deal with in life you know you’ll be ok.
Him being* composed is a result of him not dealing with any other real world issues.n
@@TempeSoldier123 I would gladly have my mom back rather than 25 million dollars, how dare you judge him and how he feels. I would assume losing your father would be a big deal to somoene that actually loved their father. I feel the same way about my mother, I wouldn't care if i was a billionaire, id be sad. You need help!
@@piscesempress1978 get off your high horse. We all have to deal with death, but when you don’t have a single financial worry in the world it makes dealing with life a billion times easier, and you know it.
You’re such a hypocrite.
@@TempeSoldier123Money has nothing to do with the loss of his dad. He’s composed because he has to go on, but the pain will never go away. What a terrible loss!
@@karendobbs8153 John Ritter was a great actor.
Wasn't allowed to watch three's company as a kid but seen it a lot in rerun's. John was a great physical comedian
Was a huge fan of John Ritter in 'Three's Company', and it's quite sad, even all these years after his death, to once again remember that he died at an earlier age than one would expect. It's something else to watch his son Jason being interviewed in this video. I can hear the similiarity in his speaking voice, in addition to the obvious physical similarities. I hear Jason Ritter is an actor as well, although I'm not familiar with his work, but it's refreshing to see he is carrying on the trade of the Ritter men since Rex started it all for them way back when. Bless this young man, and I wish him the best.
I know by John dying his brother’s life was saved but I hope his sons have been checked as well. I can usually watch John and laugh but sometimes there’s tears.
Style of comedy that John Ritter brought to the screen. He was one of a kind. Rip.
God I LOVE John Ritter soooooooo much!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I wish I got to meet him :( 😔 xxx
UGH I JUST LOVED John Ritter SO much!!! He seemed like he was probably such a nice, kind spirited man. Something drew me to him every time I turned the TV on and now I have a similar sense about Jason Ritter. RIP John 🙏🏾🕊
The fact that Larry King was on Gravity Falls twice is amazing
I adored john ritter - still makes me tear up - he was a national treasure and so genuine.
I saw this guy for the first time on Raising Dion. I knew he looked familiar and just couldn't place him. Now I know...He looks so much like his father John Ritter!
Heartbreaking. I loved John Ritter. His son a sweetheart like him.
John Ritter made me laugh everyday, watching Three's Company! He is still missed today!
JR was a great comedian and gave us this man We are grateful TY
I think John would be proud of the man that Jason has become!
John was probably the funniest guy who could also be the most serious guy. What range and entertainment.
That is how my dad died in 2017. It ruptured and he lived long enough to tell my mom to not follow his helicopter to the hospital, to go home, and he would be fine.
😢 omg that's so sad
I wish John could of been saved...Johns brother was sure lucky to have been saved when he got his aortic dissection
Diane Newman yep well tex had a heart attack which I’m pretty sure lead to the tear in his aorta
Or it WAS an aortic dissection to begin with that was misdiagnosed as a heart attack. That's what they initially thought was going on with John to begin with until they ran further tests. By the time they figured out what was going on with John, though, it was too late.
storyofcory I totally agree.. but Tex had a heart attack and then he survived that then later on in his life the aortic dissection caused his death
If you've never seen it, find a copy of "Real Men" with John Ritter and Jim Belushi. Crazy funny.
Thanks going to check it out! Must be very funny.
Woah! Happen to be watching that right now on tv. Lol
He has his father's beautiful iconic smile
I used to think he looks a lot like his dad and then I saw his brother Tyler. It's actually eerie. Looking at Tyler is like looking at John when he was on Three's Company, but with a current wardrobe.
Spitting image of his dad in every way...
Jason is a talented guy. John must have been a great dad.
Wow, Clifford and Dipper didn’t get to stick around much.
😭😭
Wow it’s like we’re looking at a young John Ritter
R.I.P.
John Ritter
(September 17th,1948-
September 11th,2003)
I love him ❤️🤟💞
John Ritter was a legend!
Those of you who would like to see a statue of John Ritter, raise your hand.
What a loss 😥 Take care of your heart, Jason.
So sad! Miss John Ritter! Gone too soon! ❤. Jason Ritter, you are awesome too! Loving the Raising Dione show already also
Looks like his dad, never knew he had a kid. So sad he died young. I grew up watching Three's Company.
John had 4 kids. Just a side note - in the opening sequence of when they're all at the zoo - the little boy standing beside Joyce is Jason!
Alan Thicke passed from the same thing
So handsome like his Father
❤️
Wow, he really looks like his dad
Jason is very Handsome ❤
Jason Ritter rocks
John Ritter was cute AND very very talented! RIP my friend.
Very handsome
Omg he look and talk like him
He's like the spitting image of his old man.
Threes Company plays in my house every day
Dipper Pines and Larry King
He looks so much like him that I have to look twice.
He even sounds like him...
I know that actors hate to hear such things, but I'm clearly hearing Mr. Dipper Pines on him (especially when his voice gets higher a little bit).
Man he looks like his dad. But I know that conversation had to be difficult. Ppl just be so nosey
People are nosy, HE WAS ASKED about his dad.. learn to spell btw.
If people haven't seen Billy Bob Thortons first film "Sling Blade," it's a must see not only for Billies amazing performance but for Ritters role as the gay grocery store owner.. Yoakum's performance was amazing too considering he was country music star and has had no formal acting experience....
The main thing I hated about that movie was the fact that his character said the "F" word too much.
Not even close to his first movie but yes it is awesome!
Aortic Dissections happen in the USA about 10,000 a year. It is extremely rare. There are about 800,000 heart attacks in America every year. The survival rate is a lot lower for Aortic Dissection.
Just such a tragedy that John's problem couldn't be detected earlier when there was still time to fix it.
Not mentioned is the fact that his family sued the hospital and doctors and blamed them for John Ritter's death. The hospital settled out of court for $9.4 million, but the two doctors decided to defend themselves in court and won. The jury found them not negligent in Ritter's death.
I bet after John & Tex both died of Aortic dissection, Jason and his siblings get checked just in case! (also considering as Jason mentioned - his uncle (John's brother!) had it and luckily was treated! Lesson to all - get checked out annually if there are genetic conditions in your family!
It’s like dipper talking to the wax Larry king statue
Talk about the power of genetics!
Wait, how is Larry King even interviewing him like this? Didn't he decapitate Larry King?
Jason looks so much like John, I have a hard time watching him act.
When this guy speaks, all i can hear is dipper...
Larrys a terrible interviewer. No charisma,no personability, rushing guests through andwers etc... total creep
Can’t imagine what Jason felt from losing his dad.
