Maybe you are thinking of Richard Karn from home improvement who later hosted Family Feud? They do look alot alike.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coldsolderjoint 84 Posted June 28, 2009 RIP. I enjoyed the Pitchmen show. And in actuality, Billy had a real job. I would much rather hear about Billy Mays than MJ. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fishpaw 17 Posted June 28, 2009 Billy Mays is dead and that ShamWow guy is alive? Life sure isnt fair! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chad 3 Posted June 28, 2009 lol yeah, that shamwow guy is super annoying. Always reminds me of a crackhead selling stupid things to support his habit. I always thought billy mays was annoying until I saw pitchmen, I think it humanized him for me. Sorry to see him go, RIP. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chad 3 Posted June 28, 2009 Sorry to hear of his death, but I sure am glad there wont be any new commercials that I have to mute or fast forward through.. +1 ! I sure hope the shamwow guy doesn't take Billy's spot. He makes me want to jump off a bridge. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maksim 1,504 Posted June 28, 2009 Some more details... and an interesting quote. http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/TV/06/2 ... index.html He reported that he got him on the head from things falling on the plane. Same thing as that woman who fell skiing and died of a brain bleed? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maksim, you must be referring to a possible brain aneurysm: http://www.brainaneurysm.com/ Its likely, as they are far more common then people think. If it is the case, it'll come up on the autopsy.

Tom609 27 Posted June 29, 2009 I hate to see anyone go before their time, especially with kids, but if you wear hearing aids you won't miss Billy. Not many on TV operating at his frequency. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maksim 1,504 Posted June 29, 2009 How ironic... would be worse if it was life insurance. c7d85T4OfqA I can use this though... MJ, Charlie's Angel, BM, just shows you, need to have enough coverage and protection for your family, crap can hit the fan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
