8 Simple Rules jumped when John Ritter passed away (no disrespect to the dead or anything).
RIP John Ritter, you are surely missed by fans

The show imo was never the same when John Ritter died. The show went downhill after that. Though I have to admit that Amy Davidson is pretty hot and I used to fantasize about sleeping with her numerous times.
Good show. At first I didn't see Katy Segal and John Ritter as a couple, but it actually worked well. Segal is a talented actress and it was nice to see her play a different kind of mother than Peg Bundy. The only complaint I have is the title, which has to be the worst in sitcom history.
You would think that the producers learn that when Freddie Prinze died Chico and the Man died. Turn ahead 25 years later and history repeats itself. John Ritter died and 8 Simple Rules died with him.

It's bad enough that famed "Three's Company" star John Ritter passed away while doing 8 Simple Rules. (Rest in peace, John...we miss you.) But when ABC decided to hire the p***k from the Capital One commercials (David Spade), the show lost whatever humor was left. It would have been a h*** of a lot funnier if Juan Valdez replaced John Ritter and ABC renamed the show "8 Simple Rules For Growing a Coffee Plantation".
Jumped with Ritter's death.
(Ya gotta know ABC was twisted up over that. Here the network finally got a hit show among the dregs of the season and the lead actor keels over. My suggestion would be to not cast any person for Ritter's role but keep placing in different people every week. First week: Chris Rock. Second week: Drew Carey Third week: Xena in full Warrior Princess garb. Fourth week: All the guys from "Reservoir Dogs". Fifth week: Eric Cartman. Now that would be entertaining.)

I wish 8 simple rules was still on. billy aaron brown, the guy in a few MK&A movies/shows is a great addition to the show as bridget's boyfriend, then later kerry's. they should have made jonathan taylor thomas a regular as bridget's boyfriend, i loved him too! principal ed gibb was ok as cate's former flame. grandpa jim is the way i would want my grandpa to be, and C.J is just cool. john ritter is hilarious.
8 simple rules is my FAVORITE show. I loved every episode. the episodes after John Ritter has helped me too, i lost my mom, and i feel especially feel comforted when katey or grandpa speak and C.J makes me laugh with his nice guy-always happy-speak his mind (in a good way, definately not annoying) attitude that he has.
