LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Emmy award-winning actor John Ritter (news), who gained fame playing bumbling and lovable characters in two television comedies decades apart, has died, a representative said on Friday.

Ritter collapsed on Thursday evening while filming "8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter," the ABC television comedy which had reinvigorated his career and was a centerpiece of the network's upcoming fall season.

He was taken to Providence St. Joseph hospital in Burbank, California, across from the studio where he had been working.

There he died from a "dissection of the aorta," which results from an unrecognized flaw in a main artery from the heart, his publicists, Wolf-Kasteler & Associates Public Relations, said.

Thats a damn shame. I always liked his music.

Never watched Ritter's stuff, but he brought smiles to the faces of a lot of people.
