Plot Summary:
ABC’s 8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter will continue despite star John Ritter’s death last Friday at the age of 54.
The final three episodes of “8 Simple Rules…” completed by Ritter will air sequentially beginning with the season premiere on Tuesday, September 23 8/7c, says ABC. Each of these episodes will open with a special introduction by members of the cast.
After the three episodes, the series will go into repeats while writers retool it and production starts. Future episodes will then take viewers into the Hennessy household as they experience the loss of a beloved father and construct a new life.
“Everybody recognizes that John loved that show… He’d have wanted the show to continue,” Lloyd Braun, chairman of ABC Entertainment Television Group, said today.
It hasn’t been decided if the death of Ritter’s character, Paul Hennessy, will mirror what happened to the actor. While the idea of recasting Ritter’s role was quickly rejected, new characters will be added at some point, said ABC.
