    1. Regis Philbin we’ll miss you, you were the greatest game show host ever, better than Ellen, I remember watching him when he and Kelly Ripa introduced my friend Tyler Shoff, you’ll be missed Regis , no one will ever be better hosting who wants to be a millionaire, Rest In Peace , I’ll be praying for his family, We Love you Regis 😂😍

  1. Aww, gonna miss that guy.
    Who wants to be a millionaire was a really good show back in the tv days.

    1. @if it ain’t foreign it’s borin he means back when TV was the only thing to watch! Smart phones weren’t a thing and internet on the computer still sucked. It came on and you just sat around the tv and watched it with family. It was a big show and you knew lots of families were sitting and eating and watching it too. Commercials come on and you rush to get something from the kitchen or use the bathroom. Now we all just zone out and look at our phones or go to another room and watch something else on a streaming service. If something crazy happened on the show and you missed it so what, it’ll be on YouTube if if goes viral. There definitely was the “tv days”, good tv was an event.

    2. @if it ain’t foreign it’s borin yup, and so are the years 2000 to 2005, the very last of the good times when distraction and entertainment wasn’t at your fingertips 24/7 and everything wasn’t a meme and cringe and ironic and meta and people didn’t have an opinion about everything. Good times.

    3. @Andromeda is Coming don’t know how old you are, but thanks for the trip down memory lane. When I was young, only 5 channels and in black and white. No remote, no cable. We still had to use rabbit ears.

  2. He was on a Morning news show in St louis mo . he was too funny For the Midwest . he moved on to LA .

  3. Wow..
    Regis Gone ?
    I hate to hear this..
    Regis was great..

    My deepest condolences go out to All His Loved Ones..

    RIP Regis..

  4. Loved Regis classy guy who entertained several generations including mine I was watching him in my teens RIP you darling classy gentleman can’t say they about many entertainers unfortunately

  5. He was lucky to get the best years out of this country before it became a mess. I’m glad it was a natural death and not Covid. RIP

    1. Marie Kano of a heart attack? Is that dying peacefully? People assume that dying of natural causes means dying in your sleep or suddenly without pain. Aren’t all heart attacks painful? I am just curious. I just hope he didn’t suffer.

    2. *Wall Street Quietly Begins Warning About A Biden Presidency*
      June 27, 2020 https://www.forbes.com/sites/sergeiklebnikov/2020/06/27/wall-street-quietly-begins-warning-about-a-biden-presidency/#6cf670f82ba4

      With Joe Biden surging in the polls, Wall Street executives are preparing for a potential scenario where he becomes president—with some firms warning clients the stock market could take a hit.

      *SURPRISING FACTS*

      According to a recent RBC Capital Markets survey, the majority of the firm’s clients still believe that Trump’s reelection is a positive for the market, with 60% saying that a Biden presidency would negatively impact stocks.

    3. @Keith Johnson – Shelby GT500 Pushing an agenda here.. aren’t we? What does this have to do with the video? #Nothing

  6. Grew up with no cable in the 1980s and 1990s basically heard his voice every morning God bless you and your family

    1. @Keith – Of course stock market execs and wealthy investors are worried. The feds have been propping up the market under tRump. It’s a house of cards and everyone should realize this. 😐

    1. @AmericanMom TrollHunter you’re just dumb. Pay attention. Regis was at a few of his Rallies in ’16.
