And not to get all sappy here, but we can't help but think that somewhere, John Ritter is smiling. Not only are his two sons, Tyler (29) and Jason (34), doing really well in their acting careers—please tell me you already know the greatness that is Jason Ritter—they are quickly developing a reputation as two of the nicest and most sincere guys in Hollywood.
Kind. Humble. Grounded. And just...normal.
Not necessarily what you'd expect from two boys who grew up in the thick of Hollywood, surrounded by A-list celebrities, in a family of actors. There isn't the slightest whiff of ego or entitlement about them.
Tyler, for example, celebrated his college graduation by moving to Argentina to do charity work. (But hey, if you celebrated by going to a kegger in a basement, that's cool, too. You, um...are not alone.)
When I sat down with Tyler, he told me that his father (John) and mother (actress Nancy Morgan) did a lot of things right during his childhood.
