message: Do we need to include Ritter's guest roles?  I was watching Nick@Nite and they did a whole night of just his guest roles from The Mary Tyler Moore Show to The Cosby Show. --JonMoore 06:36, 17 Sep 2003 (UTC)

message: According to Fox News, 8 Simple Rules will go on.  ABC is to air the final three John Ritter episodes, then go into reruns. It is rumored that the show will take on an ensambble feel with Katey Sagal at front and Henry Winkler stepping in as an uncle. 
Does this have any place on the 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter page??

message: To the editors of this article: Note that ref 7 is no longer working, please find the 
article and renew the link. It is about the judgement of the doctors who were 
sued for not realizing the real medical condition. Henry Winkler is mentioned at the 
end of the link text, maybe he was the author of the referenced article.
John Ritter will live in our memory, it is so sad that he died so young.

replies: text: The link should still be OK, but the E! Online site is notoriously unreliable (endless redirect loops, and the like) when accessed from outside the US. I've tried hardcoding in the Canadian site, which seems like the most stable at the moment. Hqb (talk) 21:10, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

message: I have not seen any reference to John Ritter being diagnosed with HIV, this seems to me should be removed if there is no credible citation.

thread_title: HIV DIAGNOSIS

message: Ok so my main cause for complaint in this was the use of the word "interestingly" as this was drawing an un-sourced conclusion. But in reality John Cash dying and being connected to John Ritter just because his dad once worked with him is frankly a stretch and does nothing to add to this article. Also for the record youtube is not a reliable source. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 07:33, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Connections to others death 

message: Hi. Not trying to splice hairs here, but he is repeatedly referred to as a comedian on this page, and nothing in the article, except for the Knotts quote, reflects that he in fact was a professional comedian.  Was he a 'comedic actor'?  I think this is an important distinction- they are 2 different careers.  Are there any records of his standup or improv background to add to his background?Coemgenv (talk) 17:42, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

text: I've actually changed Yasbeck's page to match Ritter's, the source cited on Yasbeck's page is not accessible. See no reason not to trust People on this sort of thing.  Cannolis (talk) 14:27, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

text: Stella Ritter - IMDb - Stella Ritter's IMDB page states that she was born September 11, 1998.
Amy Yasbeck - IMDb - Yasbeck's page states that she was married to John Ritter (18 September 1999 - 11 September 2003) (his death) (1 child)

thread_title:  Semi-protected edit request on 7 November 2014 

message: I removed this bit: 
Both sides agree that Ritter's true condition—an aortic dissection, which is a tear in the largest blood vessel in the body that grows until one suffers cardiac arrest or until trapped blood leaks out of the vessel—was not identified until just prior to his death because of the failure of emergency medicine physician Dr. Lawrence Wells to obtain a chest X-ray prior to diagnosing
This was not stated in the cited source (now dead link, archived here). Looking around further, I can find no secondary coverage of a Lawrence Wells in relation to Ritter. The only mention of him is in a apparent scan of the malpractice complaint that names him, as well as 2 other ER docs as having cared for him. While Wells may have settled with Yasbeck, as could be alluded to here, there is no "both sides agreeing" to this being Wells' fault. It also appears that the x-ray was ordered but never obtained, not to mention that a x-ray is not a great test for dissection in the first place. Cannolis (talk) 14:08, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  I removed some text 

message: Ritter's 1999 Emmy nomination for "Ally McBeal" wasn't in the Lead Actor category, but rather as 'Outstanding Guest Actor'. Since I am somewhat inexperienced in terms of editing and don't want to mess things up by dividing categories, I decided to post the information here so that someone with a clue may fix it. Thank you very much. Sahjhan (talk) 16:20, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
