John Ritter & Katey Sagal Were Terrific together!
by whpratt12004-04-04
10/10

"Have enjoyed seeing this film many times in the past, however, I have a deeper appreciation for the great acting skills of John Ritter. It is sad to see him in this picture along with Katey Sagal, who was the last actress to work with him in "8 Simple Rules",TV Series,'02. John Ritter( Tom Maguire), and Katey Sagal (Irene Duncan), had me laughing through out the entire picture. I enjoyed seeing Irene Duncan pushing Tom around in a hand DOLLY to protect his back problems. The scenes taken in the City of Chicago were outstanding. This film will always keep John Ritter's..."
