Ladytex...do you have station WGN? My guide shows several Charlie's Angels episodes there beginning at 2:00 California time. ETA: If you have DirecTV, it's channel 307

Yes, Billy Mays passed away last night. I was with him last week. I'm shocked and saddened.

Yep, when Discovery posted it, I knew it was true since his show? was on their network. And it is very sad, but I don't wish for "tributes".. my ears couldn't take it.

Remember: tonight on the BET awards, they will be doing an MJ tribute. Rumors are that it will include Usher, Beyonce, Ne-Yo, Chris Brown and more.

Yeah, I was reading this morning that stars that hadn't planned on attending the awards show were scrambling to get there, such as Justin Timberlake.

1 David Carradine 2 Ed McMahon 3 Farrah Fawcett 1 Michael Jackson 2 Billy Mays 3 I totally have always believed in the "deaths happen in 3's". It's something both my Grandmother and Mom used to say. Geesh!

Does anyone recognize the name John Callaway? He was a journalist, reporter, etc. It's a big name in the Chicago area / midwest. Someone locally (Chicago) thinks he's known nationally, but I don't know.... If so, he'd be no. 2 or 3.

My DH really liked Billy Mays, he really liked his new show. He wanted to buy that lawn paint they had on one of the shows. Thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family. ((Yankee)) I know he was a friend of yours.

I believe John Callaway (Ch. 11) died on the same day as FF and MJ. Not sure if he's "known" enough to count as a third. Don't think BM would be "known" enough either...

Julie, Callaway died June 23, Tuesday evening. It was Nick on WGN radio who said he'd be known nationally.

Gale Storm, whose wholesome appearance and perky personality made her one of early television's biggest stars on "My Little Margie" and "The Gale Storm Show," has died at age 87. Storm, who had been in failing health in recent years, died Saturday at a convalescent hospital in Danville, said her son, Peter Bonnell. Before landing the starring role in "My Little Margie" in 1952, Storm starred in numerous B movies opposite such stars as Roy Rogers, Eddie Albert and Jackie Cooper. After her last TV series, "The Gale Storm Show," ended in 1960 she went on to a successful singing career while continuing to make occasional TV appearances. www.yahoo.com is it awful of me to wonder if she is 'famous enough' to be counted as one of the three's???

Oh Wow. My little Margie was my favorite show when I was a kid. I must have seen the reruns on tv during the day because I saw the show in the 60s. I remember the Gale Storm show too. She sure is famous enough, she belongs with Ed McMachon

I think she's famous enough. The youngsters here won't know her, but we old people do! Jimmer, you said, "Wait long enough and there will always be a third." It was less than an hour...

Loved 'My Little Margie'. She sure lived to a ripe old age. It never very sad when someone dies after a good long life. It's the shortened lives that are so sad to lose.

Just repeating this, in case she didn't see it. Ladytex...do you have station WGN? My guide shows several Charlie's Angels episodes there beginning at 2:00 California time. ETA: If you have DirecTV, it's channel 307 Watching a bit of this now, myself.Later, the episode where Jill (Farrah) joined the Roller Derby will be on. She was a beautiful girl who was also very sporty. Fun, watching her today...along with Jaqueline and Kate.
