Unforgivable is a 1996 American television drama film directed by Graeme Campbell. It stars John Ritter, Harley Jane Kozak, Gina Philips, Susan Gibney and NYPD Blue co-star James McDaniel. The film premiered on April 30, 1996 on CBS.

Though the film received little to no critical acclaim, John Ritter was praised for his performance as an abusive husband and graduating from his best known role as the lovable, Jack Tripper on Three's Company.

Paul Hegstrom (Ritter) is a seriously disturbed family man who puts his wife and children through physical, mental, and emotional abuse. Drawing what he calls "courage" through a whiskey bottle, he severely beats his wife, Judy (Kozak) until one day his eldest daughter Tammy confronts him. Paul leaves the family home and moves in with his mistress, Beth French (Gibney) but hospitalizes her a short while later following another one of his violent rages. To avoid having to spend time in jail, Paul is forced to get psychological help to be able to overcome his problems.
