The billy mays comercials are officially gone.
I just saw a comercial that has the same exact products but some blonde dude was yelling at the tv.
What does ag think about that?
Dont say that you dont care.

Billy Mays was a legend, especally with sham-WOW.

Do you realize how self contradictory that statement is?
Because according to this and many other sources Billy Mays hates the Sham-Wow, along with the pitchman of that product Vince Offer. Get your facts straight first.

To be perfectly honest, I didn't like Billy Mays at all. As soon as one of his commercials came on, I immediately shut the TV off and left. I didn't want to get shouted at by some random guy trying to sell stuff.

Billy mays had the zorbeez, not the Sham-WOW.

his comercials did get anoying but no one could do it better then him. everyone knows who he is so thats why replacing him with the people they choose is such a big deal.

devastated about billy mays's death. his commercials were the only commercials i watched. him yelling got attention. he was a real nice guy too. them replacing his commercials with different people is a disgrace. at least get anthony sullivan to do it, or billy mays jr

His commercials weren't THAT bad. They were like attention-getters.

him yelling got attention.

That was very well true.
