Decades after Three’s Company ended its run, the beloved sitcom continues to resonate—not just with fans, but with the families of its iconic cast. Most recently, Jason Ritter, son of the late John Ritter, paid tribute to his father’s legendary role as Jack Tripper with a viral TikTok impression that has fans smiling and tearing up in equal measure.
In the short clip, Jason mimics his dad’s famous “creep face”—a goofy, exaggerated expression Jack Tripper often used to comedic effect. It’s a small moment, but it captured the spirit of the character so perfectly that the internet lit up with praise, memories, and heartfelt nostalgia.
A Night to Remember
Not long before the video surfaced, original cast members from Three’s Company reunited at a charity gala in Los Angeles hosted by the John Ritter Foundation. Joyce DeWitt and Priscilla Barnes—who played Janet and Terri on the show—appeared together on the red carpet, sharing warm memories and honoring their late friend.
John’s wife, Amy Yasbeck, and the rest of the Ritter family were also in attendance. They later shared that they often send each other funny skits and videos in John’s memory—moments that capture the same goofy charm he brought to his most famous role.
“He would’ve loved this,” one family member said, reflecting on the wave of tributes.
A Legacy That Still Shines
Today, Jason Ritter has built a successful acting career in his own right, but his recent tribute reminded fans just how deeply his father’s comedic genius is woven into his life. His affectionate portrayal of Jack Tripper was more than just a gesture—it was a living connection to a character who helped shape television comedy.
The enduring popularity of Three’s Company is a testament to its timeless humor and lovable characters. And thanks to moments like these—from family tributes to fan celebrations—Jack Tripper’s legacy remains as strong and vibrant as ever.
