Subject: Ed McMahon Passed Away...

Written By: LyricBoy on 06/23/09 at 7:24 am

Just heard this on the CBS Morning Show, as it is not on the news wires yet.

Lara Spencer  :-*  (subbing for Maggie Rodriquez this week) reported that Ed McMahon has passed away.  :\'(

Ed was the ultimate talk show "second banana" and set a standard for generations to come.

RIP Ed.  :\'(    You did it right...  :)

It's on CNN now.

This brought tears to my eyes.  Rest in Peace, Ed.  You will be missed. :(

As sad as the news is, it really isn't surprising. He has been ill for a long time and the last few times I saw him on t.v. he didn't look good at all.

I grew up watching Ed on 'TV's Bloopers and Practical Jokes'.  He was a TV legend and will be truly missed. :\'(

With the passing of Ed, we are only left with Bret Michaels to utter Ed's signature "Hi-yo!"

I thought so too. I also heard about this on the news this morning.

I grew up watching his commercials for Publisher's Clearing House. "You could win ten million dollars!!!" :D

Anyways, R.I.P. Ed. You will be greatly missed. :(

Luckily I grew up watching Ed on "Star Search" since I wasn't allowed to stay up to watch "The Tonight Show".


RIP Ed McMahon.  :\'(  :\'(  :\'(

Anyone who's ever watched one episode of The Tonight Show will miss him, whether the host was Carson or Leno.
I have no doubt when he arrived in heaven, he had one thing to ask:

"WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERE'S JOHNNY?"
Farewell, Ed. May your classiness live on.

Your Pal,
Doc(not Severinsen)

I saw a news feed where Doc spoke at length about Ed.  He was obviously sad to see Ed go, but it was a great interview.  :)
