Re: Billy Mays dead at 50
True. Ed McMahon's death wasn't as publicized as the others though.

June definitely wasn't a good month for entertainment this year though.

I wonder what will happen to Pitchmen now though. I originally thought that show was going to be a stupid idea, but it actually turned out pretty good.

It's the only good show on TV right now, as far as I'm concerned. I hope they taped them well in advance.

I do too. I like that and mythbusters. That's like the only thing I'll watch.


TV for the loss.

Well if world wide celebrities is the criterion, then it is still only two out of three.

I've never heard of Billy Mays or Ed McMahon.

And Bill, don't worry about the 50 thing. We'll just pretend you're not famous round here till after your birthday.....
