Jason Ritter's Daughter: Hollywood's Coolest Critic

0:00It's April 8th. Welcome to Entertainment and Celebrity News today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Jason Ritter, the star of CBS' new Matlock, just opened up about his daughter steering clear of acting. She's got a vague sense of his Hollywood life, but shows zero interest in joining the family biz. Ted Danson even chimed in, saying she couldn't care less. Ritter recalled a sweet moment when she straight up asked if it was okay not to become an actor. He and his wife assured her. It's totally fine, no pressure at all. That support comes from knowing how tough forcing a career pass can be. His kids' reactions to his fame are pure gold, though. She cracks jokes like wishing his Matlock character would bite the dust. And she rolls her eyes at his over-the-top enthusiasm, calling him out with a grin. Those viral dance clips to the classic Matlock theme are a big part of it. Ritter filmed himself grooving anywhere from home stairs to random spots, posting them on social media last season. He even slid up and down steps once, but warned everyone not to copy that risky move.
