I did not see this one coming.

:-( I really loved his Pitchmen show. He was far superior to the hooker-punching pitchman Vince from ShamWow and The Underground Comedy Movie.

Man we're really piling up on RIP threads lately.

Seriously though, RIP Billy. I see either his commercials or Pitchmen at least once a day where I work, so it's kind of like losing a very noisy coworker.

He was definitely the best in the biz.

YOU HAVE GOT TO RESPECT A GUY WHO CAN MAKE A PRODUCT A HIT JUST BY APPEARING IN ITS COMMERCIAL

I have never bought his products but he was always fun to watch. Pitchmen is a very entertaining show to catch. He definitely was one of the best in the business.

RIP BILLY!

Wow. Maybe it was a result of all those toxic cleaners he was pushing.

So, according to the "celebrity trifecta" rule (celebrity deaths come in threes),
David Carradine-Ed McMahon-Farrah Fawcett; Michael Jackson-Billy Mays-???

The ironic part with Swayze is he starred in a M*A*S*H episode (season 9, episode 18) where he found out he had cancer (leukemia).

His commercials may have been annoying but they were so entertaining, they say something hit is head in a plane because of turbulance and the next day his wife couldn't wake him up :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: This year has been a sad year.

They announced after the autopsy that the planes "rough landing" had nothing to do with it. IIRC they said it was actually a heart attack, but I wasn't paying that much attention at the time though.

he had an enlarged heart and had some complication with that.
i read that about the getting his head bumped in the plane. but they ruled that out as a cause of death.

I'll miss that guy. Even if he was tone deaf... Now I feel a little bad when I make fun of him.
